Gonna need a more direct attacking performance from Sakamoto, he turns and chops defenders because he hasn’t the pace. Ultimately it leads trying to break down a tighter defence.
Well if the boards have been moved and any unnecessary shoving goes on, then they’re simply being used as a weapon. The officials should be all over that.
Think what weakens the long throw slightly is the slow loop. They’ve got more time to deal with it.
The flat and fast ones do more damage and are nightmares to defend.
It was a plan that worked better than they expected. Mistakes are mistakes regardless of scale, they were waiting for them 100%, they’d have dealt with us all night.
They’d have bought a draw before KO but we were dumb enough to go one better.
Yes, hardly a masterclass, but to sit back and wait for mistakes was a plan executed well. Respect has nothing to do with it. It’s crystal clear that they’d done homework.
