Started the game off brightly, good pass and movement. Managed to open up a packed defence and get chances. However, the chances we didn’t put away were the issue and real cause for concern.
It reminded me of that cheat code in one of the earlier FIFA games, where your opponent couldn’t score against you.
Ronaldo, hits the post. A guy of his calibre should be scoring from there. If he does, at that stage of the game, it’s a different story.
Bruno goes through and messes up a couple of times. No finesse, no little chip over the keeper one on one. Making Forster look like peak Schmeichel by blasting shots at him.
Yet again today, the build up from the back was very slow. Watching from behind the goals, we could clearly see passes that the players had options of, they either didn’t look for the best option, or held onto the ball for seconds longer than they should have.
In the times we attacked with speed and strength, we looked dangerous and it provided opportunities. Which sadly were not taken.
