9 players up for the corner in the 88th minute while you are leading 2-3 away from home.
9 players including the keeper in the box when they score that 3rd goal on the counter from said corner.
What a mess.



B)
Seems like a pretty normal setup until Tunnicliffe shifts to cover Mr Invisible on their right flank and Bernardo ignores the open player to run off and not pressure the ball.

It was 81 minutes, not deep into injury time. You would want the team to still be looking to score at that point.
Disagree, 9 men up with 1 defender back at that point of the game is just dumb. Keep another couple of players back.
Duzel was already back, Tunnicliffe was defending (just badly), and to be honest I have nfi what Bernardo's role in all of it was meant to be. You could argue one of Bovalina or Kitto should have been back too, but then it's likely Macarthur would have left one or more players forward too.

The terrible decisions from individual players are much more worrying. If you have three players sucked in to the ball like that, you'll concede a shot at goal every time no matter how many are back.
