Lively start for both teams. Commentator says Benfica have only given up one goal in forever, which explains for me why Soldado didn't start. It may not be good to start a striker who could use a boost against a team that's very hard to score against.
 
Spurs waste four corners after a good spell of progressive football.

We're mixing it up. Benfica aren't having it all their own way. 'Tis all good.
 
We're a very good ball-winning team when we try to play that way. Lots of fast, athletic players who are good in the air. The problem is under AVB we won the ball and held it. It looks like if we press and attack directly, we might get the best out of our players. We'll see.

Edit Then again maybe we leave ourselves open toomuch when we press this high.

...I write as they score....
