mccaughey85 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 We have been defensively really good but we can't seem to hold onto the ball and we have been non existent in attacking terms. I am guessing Germany will be a strong team so we are maybe looking to just contain them and try and nick a goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

er yir macaroon Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 McPake with the goal. I felt it was coming actually - we’ve been dealing with them well and a chance was always going to come along with our front three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er yir macaroon Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 It has to be said McPake has more than a passing resemblance to Laudrup when he gets at full backs. Final ball needs work though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt it was coming actually - we’ve been dealing with them well and a chance was always going to come along with our front three. Lol it was far from coming, we could hardly string two passes together and we didn't even get anywhere near their goal. We have been good defensively tbf.

Duncan Blackheart Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Tidy enough first half. Kind of invited Germany into us but keeping them honest at the back. Impressed with our goalie - the German number 9 looks pretty good! By now I’m used to seeing our kids physically under-developed in comparison to opponents from other areas, but the Germans are taking the piß here! Really have to keep this up second half as it will get harder. Malky Mackay interview at half-time. A wee bit of a propaganda job, but am prepared to take a wee bit of comfort from it in light of our current first team malaise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHfaeGTA Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 The lad McPake certainly has a lot of ability and if he can get the ball in the final third he can certainly cause problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We carried no threat, we had one chance and we have luckily converted it,to not be able to string two passes together is worrying because we won't always score from our one and only chance which is what has just happened.

Nah - That’s over-harsh. At the moment, I’d still expect the Germans to peg us back, but if that free-kick had gone in, I wouldn’t say it wasn’t deserved. They’re doing well and I hope they hold on.

Our defensive discipline has been excellent, we have easily contained them but it's not good enough that we can't string two passes together.

Duncan Blackheart Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Very good win. Not sure what qualification for the Elite round actually means, but it sounds good. Was fun watching the Germans lose it a bit towards the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazmidd Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Brilliant second half performance, did well to keep it tight and play our way into the game first half, goal gave us a lot of confidence and belief, and so we should have belief as we are actually very good on the ball when we have the confidence to trust our ability. Great to see and well deserved win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccaughey85 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Decent win, we looked good defensively and played well in the second half. Germany kept the ball well but didn't have any cutting edge. A good disciplined performance from our team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
