Already 1-0?
That started pretty much how I expected it to.
No Eustaquio. Pain.
Wish Mitoma was playing, but great time for the other players to get some minutes. Kubo should get some time around 60-70mins in
Nice try by Phonzy
Canada aren’t playing bad, but there is a gulf in quality with the defensive lines. Ours just look like they are running in molasses and our midfield is not tracking runs after turnovers. Japan’s press is really good, but the scoreline flatters them a bit given the deflected goal and own goal plus a missed pen.
Another manager about to get the sack or what?
Wow
Score the pen and we’d probably only be down 2-1,3-1. This is brutal.
That is a red
Thought I was watching basketball there with the air passing.
that tackle is illegal in the NFL too
hopefully Nakamura is okay, he was starting to play more comfortably with Stade De Reims
lol wtf are these goals man
Great header!
my goodness davies
