http://www.footballaustralia.com.au/new ... stan/48848The Qantas Young Socceroos have been defeated by Uzbekistan 2-1 in their opening match of the AFF U19 Tournament at Thong Nhat Stadium in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
A torrential downpour prior to kick-off meant that the match was played on a heavy, slow pitch which was not conducive to free flowing football.
Same old story with our junior sides. We dominate posession but can't cut it in the final third and as a result where it counts on the scoreboard.
Hopefully we see a improved performance tomorrow when we play Vietnam.
