Mooy and Leckie have shown some good foot skills in the ■■■■■■ conditions. Irvine and Luongo solid in the guts as well. The backs have been exposed a few times and we were lucky that they didn’t snag one of those crosses early on. Who knows where it will bounce if you put it long on this pitch.
That corner cross to Leckie for the header was spot on. That through ball to Kruse from Jedinak (?) where he couldn’t get hold of it was a beauty given the conditions.
Let’s hope we can put some more pressure on them early in the 2nd half for another goal and watch them run out of puff.
I was near going to make a thread, couldn’t see this one at all.
Thought some blokes here would have to be watching, and I wanted to comment on how much it looks like a Local Game from the 1970’s, … ground is in horrid nick.
Regardless of what the pitch was like we have to do better than that if we want to qualify for world cups. Saudi Arabia won again last night and have a much better goal difference. unless we pull our finger out we’re going to struggle to get in.
Well that was disappointing… Although not unexpected given how easily they got behind the defensive players and kept on putting dangerous crosses into the box. Probably lucky we didn’t end up going down by a couple.
