Angus_Young Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Being played very much like a friendly and quite a flat atmosphere. Some save from Hart there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReid Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Can't take much from this. If you watched Scotland against Qatar you would of thought there was nothing to fear about our squad, same goes for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus_Young Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) Really not much of a game so far but a few observations: Crowd are flat, but it looks a cracking stadium to watch fitba in. Should be a cracking atmosphere next week. Ireland work very very hard for each other. No real surprise as O'Neill's teams have always been very good at mixing it. We MUST match this. Surprised at how much of a handful Murphy looks. Ignorance on my part as I've seen little of him. He likely to feature next week? Ireland's height and strength at set-play's worry me. Guys like Hutton must stay disciplined and not fly into stupid tackles or it could be our undoing. Not basing much on this friendly but I really do think this game could go either way next week. I believe us to be a bit better at holding onto the ball but this will be very much like a derby match. A draw would be a decent result but I really do hope we go for it. Teams are evenly matched so no reason we can't go and win imo. Edited June 7, 2015 by Angus_Young Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was surprised that ppl were surprised that it was the borefest it was Your game today and ours on Friday were a waste of time in many senses. They were just glorified training sessions,without the intensity. Nobody will learn anything from them and they will have absolutely no impact on Saturdays game. Other than the money our respective FA's received we would have been better off without them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
