TBH that's the way I saw it. It was like men against boys in the first half. Slightly better in the second half but still.
Team selection killed off any anticipation I had and what they served up confirmed it. I'd much rather have seen a bit more intent and feeling that we were going for it but we looked, well, passive I suppose. They are so much better though
It's frustrating because although we'll never know if 'going for it' would have made any difference at all, i'd much rather our team selection was different and took our chances that way.
Ah well, another final another defeat. Who knows when our next one will be now.
Of course its dissapointing it would have been great to go toe to toe with them but they were excellent on the day and we aren't at their level but I think they are probably the best team in Europe atm. I don't think team selection or even the subs would have made much difference we defended well stayed in the game for eighty minutes and whilst it was 0-0 there was a chance but sometimes you have to hold your hands up and say they were better than you
