Solid game yesterday. Stanford came out in the standard 433 line up. The first 31 minutes looked like a repeat of the SC game - Stanford was able to pass the ball around at will. I will give miss St credit though, at that point they did what SC didn’t. They upped the intensity and tried to make a game out of it. They still weren’t that threatening - 7 shots, 3 on goal - but I only had 3-4 times they were legitimately dangerous. It would have been nice to get 2 or 3, but any win that doesn’t go to PKs is a job well done at this point.
Random thoughts
- Jung’s shooting needs to be better. A soft pass to the goalie isn’t a shot.
- Wesley and Evans don’t make many mistakes
- finishing was just a bit off
- Bhuta had some nice ranged strikes that were just off goal
- Doms and Brandt each had a few bad turnovers
- I usually bitch about lax refereeing, but this guy thought he was doing a U-8 game. Heavy breathing was a foul and it was hard to defend properly as a result.
- Lots of sub minutes this game which kinda makes sense with 2 days rest. But the subs didn’t do much with that time.
Bring on Nebraska!
