HT: 0-1, a tale of two posts. Gomes's shot comes back of theirs, Trossard's shot goes in off ours. But poor play in the box to allow the shot.
Overall way better than may expected, we've been very competitive indeed. Gomes in particular adding to his summer sale value but a big shout out for young Chirewa who has show some nice touches and flashes of real promise. Dead frustrating to be losing after keeping them at arms length for so long.
The heffalump in the room is that they're probably more likely to be able to step it up from the bench when players tire. That goes without saying although, yeah, I've said it.
Some odd officiating from the pillock in the middle who's given some world-record-soft free kicks while letting tackles above the ankle and swinging elbows go. Truly strange.
The highlight was when he gave a free kick *against* the player hit by the swinging elbow.
