Well worked corner from CCM but Gauci saves the final shot and as I write CC Mariners score.

WTF?
Mariners shoot and Gauci just watches it sail over his head and into the goal.
WTF?

half time.

Nothing was working.

[EdDog]

Never seen us get so comprehensively smashed in every aspect of the game.

Boy do CCM look hungry.

Winning every 50/50.

Half time at 1-2 is a welcome result.

Thought the ref gave CCM plenty of leeway in challenges, but blew us up quickly in tackles. (Could be I’m biased.)

CCM playing 2-4-4 in possession.
Clough not dropping into midfield enough, not match fit. (Barnett a big miss as D’Arrigo would give us more as a 10, both pressing and defensively.)
CCM front four taking it in turns to drop into the space in front of our back four, and Isa can’t cover the whole pitch. Took until 1-2 down for our centre backs to work out they needed to follow their man into no-man’s land.
