Soldado and Chadli were one on one with the keeper with no defender in sight. Soldado merely had to square the ball to Chadli to pass into an empty net but underhit the ball and the keeper grabbed it.
One-one-one with the keeper with Chadli open to his left and he messed up a really simple pass. No defenders within about 20 yards.
Nope, two v one through on goal. He underpowered the pass to Chadli and the goalkeeper literally just saved it with ease. He had so many options to either score himself or pass. It was embarrassing!
Sounds horrendous, hopefully he can redeem himself. Thanks for update, can't even find the game on the radio! Typical ITV have all the group games then as soon as it gets interesting it disappears to BT.
We've been on top, but we're not taking our fairly limited chances. Didn't take them in the first leg, either.
Yeah I reckon he'll be the fairly near the top of the transfer listed players, along with Adebayor, Kaboul, Capoue and Chiriches. My only concern is - who'll buy him?
Anyone reckon we should risk taking the Soldier off at half-time and replacing him with the Hurricane? Or just stick this one out and see if we can nick it?
0-0 HT. We were the better team, but didn't create that much and didn't put away what we did create. A few dangerous breaks from them and Gomes being his usual dodgy self.
We've played well and should be ahead - literally after Soldado's 'moment' there. If we don't take this tie then he's going to be under some serious pressure, he probably is already after that.
I know it was really poor from soldado but I do feel for him....he tries so hard but it never comes off for him
