Subject: [NT]World Cup Qualifiers

Japanese tactic was simply poor!

Luck played a little part but our striker got on the end of some nice through balls, I saw nothing from the other end apart from mainly headers. Tactics were slightly different and we have weaker players fwiw. We are not as strong as a nation as when Phil got us to the semi-finals. Hardcastle for example is still playing at 32 and compared to Brazil's double superdivine defenders is no match.

I wrote 2 from 22...
:-)

And the 2nd goal was scored by our midfielder from 30 metters to the top corner , one of the best goals of this round for sure... he did what our strikers couldnt do from 1 metter...;-)
It was a good win for us and like you said we dominated the match , our players did a great job and we are improving..

Scotland - Nederland 2:13

And it could have been 20 goals:P

we scored 1 from penalty.. so 4 shoot 2 goal.. and we played with 10 players.. they played better than us.. but a lot of them far heads..

Every shoots is not same.. And everything is not shoots.. there are 16 rating between us..

I know , its a great result for you and you deserved it.

Good result against Espana, but still a bit disappointed. Was very surprised to see that you used only two central mids, which made us control the ball whilst I was prepared for counter attacks. You had your chances on the 1st half, but on the 2nd we controlled the ball so much that we should have kept the lead. Well, at least we didn't lose which makes it a bit easier to continue the qualies. Good luck, and see you in the last game! ;)

because of the red card, but it can happens. I had to do a conditional order for the wing to cover the central mid, but I haven't pockets to do it

congratulations, well played

Yup, had same problems when there's only 7 slots for conditional orders. Would've wanted to do more substitutions, but I had to cover a red card from 5 defs and the only att, so.. :)

Yes i know ;/ i don't have enough time to help their coach :D

very poor tactic by Scotland. It wasn't appropriate for this match. a 5 defensive line-up is a must vs a national team that has it's stronger side : striking. Plus absolutely no mid control..so teh scottish strikers were relaxing in this match...

You're seriously watching all these games? Get a life...

pfff, not all the matches and not the whole match. Watched the full game of Russia adn Moldova only. the rest(Holland/Romania/Latvia) of higher speed and ~30 minutes.
