Very lively start Nunez and Rowe heavily involved. Rowe has been roughed up several times by one of their CBs. More energy than we saw last season already
 
Thanks, Rick. I'll wait and get feedback from people about how reliable the stream has been today.
Been fine, no issues at all -- except for the irritating commentary. Why do these people think you want extraneous guff about players and their history rather than commentary on the game tself?

Thanks Rick and Robbie. Sounds good.

How has the game been? The stats make it sound as if we've been under the cosh a bit, but on the other hand they are showing zero shots on target for Darmstadt.

It’s a typical counter attacking set up, letting them have the ball until they cross the half way line, when we recover the ball quick one touch passing or a direct ball to the front players.

The defence has looked good and has worked the ball out well, or used intermediate passes effectively much of the time. Darmstadt has had precious few sniffs around the goal. Rowe has been fired up on both sides of the ball and teamed up well with Stacey, who made the goal. Núñez has played well behind Sargent, who hasn't had that much to work with.

Yes, no real sign yet of Wagner's promised high pressing style, compressing play into the opposition third. Focus so far seems to have been on quick offensive transitions and playing out from the back
