Yeah I have to say it was really disappointing. Nigeria made big changes at 60min and scored immediately. He waited 20 more minutes and for Australia to concede 2 more goals before making any changes.
Then the change he makes is to move a central defender up front for more height. Yet all game we weren’t able to create any real chances in the air, with our only goal coming from on the ground play. We had over 14 corners and almost no attempts on goal from them. Sure, we finally clawed a goal back in the end from a corner. But Kennedy would’ve been there for that header even if she was still playing in defence and we had brought another attacking threat earlier.
In the end it was sloppy defensive play and Nigeria capitalised while Australia couldn’t at the other end. Let’s hope it’s all out of the system now and they can get through to the next stage.
Damn it, I was fuming during the second half. Just make some subs, Tony!
This fucking clown. I am furious. A home World Cup with arguably the best squad we’ve ever had and he’s going to completely fuck it up. He should have been sacked after the Asian Cup debacle.
How are we all feeling about him now?
