Switching to the wales game now. Bloke with the trumpet is bloody annoying. Is ET going home or away?
Sunderland striker Brian Brobbey isn’t hiding away from his ambition this summer. He wants to be the Netherlands first choice striker at the World Cup
The “goal” is a clear one, become a regular for the Netherlands this year and in the coming years too.
“That would be very nice. I am working hard on that too. So hopefully it will work out,” he said.
Brian Brobbey’s return to form isn’t just about confidence, though. Since last summer, he has been working with Rotterdam-based specialist Patrick Woerst.
The Sunderland striker was introduced to him by Netherlands teammate Denzel Dumfries. His surprising conclusion, after analysing Brobbey’s game, was to get him out of physical duels.
He helped the Sunderland striker to rebuild his game, focusing on scanning, orientation and receiving the ball while moving.
“Defenders are getting smarter and think he wants to hang onto them all the time,” Woerst explains.
“So, they keep their distance. In doing so, they put Brobbey in a kind of doubt: where exactly is he?
“That is the first thing we started working on. What should he do if he doesn’t get into a physical duel? To this end, they started focusing on turning away quickly.
“He almost always turns away and maintains his speed. That means he is harder to stop.”

The big man is on the scoresheet. Great finish from the edge of the box into the bottom corner
Sounds like he's playing really well. Has one assist and probably should have two.

Ran into trouble a couple times but looked good overall imo. Willing to run at the fullback.
Game over, 7-0 Spain. 90 in the tank plus a goal and assist for the big man.
