Asunto: [U21] Doglo

Wow, well done mate!

thanks, I am really happy.

I was swearing after their 0:2 because we missed huge chances and they scored twice out of two real chances. But our offensive power could correct the score.
I am particularly pleased because it was really deserved. We were the better team creating more and also more dangerous chances. The tactic worked pretty well, even if their lineup was totally new and surprising. We were a little lucky there, i admit...

Rossiya U21 - España U21 5:0 w-o !!!

What the heck??

Yees! It was drama right to the end! But the better team won today, no doubt, we were far more dangerous. We should have score 5 goals easy. I was thinking the same, as they took the lead 0:2..we missed some chances before, but our firepower this season is unmatched:-)
it's really big shame we don't have just slightly better MIDs, it didn't have to be Methula, Matsau and Molefe, even last years mids, Kalaka, Felix and Lehoko would be enough and I believe we could easilly qualify..Today Israel left the central field totally open and our mids had lots of space and time for passes and controlling the ball (which took them forever some times). Winstenley was completely dead at the end of the match with his stamina..
Anyway 100% deserved win, but the performance, our strenght and weaknesses are not surprising at all..Well done, congrats!

I liked how Serola clearly didn't like the defender that was guarding him, so he decided to send him away in the 3rd minute :-D

Congrats, nice debut! :)

Spanish coach was still celebrating the elections i guess..shame it wasn't against us..

thanks!

This was exactly the intention. On the other hand: no clue what the intention of the two wide spread wingbacks/laterals defensive midfielder of the israeli was. they were totally useless. maybe they expected the wide midfield I sometimes use? but even if I do, I never play with such side spread wingers.

indeed...:-/

thanks Fana ;-)

yes, that was quite lucky in our favour.
btw: what was the israeli substitution in the 45th minute? the new player coming in has a 3rd the value the one coming in and lower form as well...

indeed a shame!

Idk, he made some weird choices..You totally dominated the Israeli coach tactically and with match preparation, well done ;-) I'm happy and proud, since I still consider the team "my guys" :-)

Excellent result! Great debut as head coach, Doglo. :)

Thanks Marc!

I am glad it turned out they way we were hoping for. :-)

Well it was just a first game...
