blackhawkrush Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 PSG makes it to the final. The second goal really makes me wonder why the goalkeeper didn't kick it away when he saw all his players covered. Teams are getting burned time after time with this "I'm going to make a short pass so that my teammates can control the ball" bullcrap. Barcelona gave us proof this tactic doesn't work in their game against Bayern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Carmina Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 proof this tactic doesn't work in their game against Bayern. If winning the CL is your only definition of a successful season, then, yes, that's a really foolish tactic to go to again and again, but the key there is "against Bayern" -- against Getafe or Celta Vigo, it works really well. It works well against West Ham or Newcastle or Everton, too. So, you can win _most_ of your matches with it, but maybe not the ones you want the most.

When you're a goalkeeper and you have a goal kick, you don't make a 15 yard pass to your defender who has the other team's forward standing next to him. You kick it away. If you're the better team, you should be able to recover the ball at midfield and create from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackhawkrush Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Prishtina, a team from Kosovo, has eight players infected with the virus. However, their Saturday Europa League qualifier against Lincoln will be played because UEFA has decided Prishtina can use players from other teams based in Kosovo. And yes, it's not April 1st. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukaku had a mixed night! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
