They had far higher possession stats plus they hit the woodwork and got a penalty, both from open play, with twice our XG. But all this is to ignore my original point, which is that we struggle to get a hold of midfield and control possession which puts extra pressure on the defence. It was totally evident today with us spending most of the second half defending against a team at the bottom of the league. Maybe `Matazzo can be the glue that pulls it together but I don't have much faith in Amir or Gyabi being that player.
Yeah it was really poor, he pretty much telegraphed where he was putting it. Pandur was already stood more to that side of the goal waiting to dive.
That’s exactly how it looked from behind in E5 too. Contact, but soft. Delighted with their penalty. All their strikers and creative players on the pitch. Toss it to the reserve left back that had just come on and played lime he was suffering dizzy spells.
by the way its nice that the kc is back closer to a fortress than what it was last season we've got almost half of the points at home already than we did last season 10 vs 23 now... coincidentally we are the worst team away from home so far but
Crooks’ shocked look and winks to the crowd after his mazy run in the closing seconds was a highlight.
