things not quite falling our way for one. those passes just a tad over hit, the shot that goes just wide etc. and then the organisation on the pitch. players not holding positions they were given and players not playing to the game plan. all that couple with a lack of desire second half compared to the opposition led to our downfall.
started off very well with a nice switch play that resulted in a lovely looping shot from Jayden for 1-0. we should have had two or three more really but a goal mouth scramble led to a clearance hitting one of their players and dribbling into our net. 1-1 half time.
during half time we asked the lads to show more commitment to win the second ball and more desire to head it.
a scrappy second half, although we had plenty of chances, eventually led to a Callum goal for 2-1. with about ten minutes left we needed to keep things tight for the three points but almost immediately we got sloppy and let them score the easiest of goals for 2-2. then the lads heads dropped and they lost shape and composure and tried to force everything rather than playing with confidence. when a long range shot caught the wind and dropped over Sam's head for 2-3, the game was up and we were lucky not to let another in.
having good results and excellent performances in the last two weeks, it was very disappointing to lead twice and get nothing from the game.
need to learn to finish our many chances and keep composure at vital times.
on to the next game.
