Great game and son enjoyed it immensely, although traffic meant missed first goal. Thought we were good with some good interplay, but when it breaks down it's a bit knife through butter, especially down our left. Similarly better teams would punish us, and especially when Yoshida does his moron back pass (that could have been crucial three minutes before half time). VVD though, is simply immense. My favourite player right now, and great to see him clasp his fists at the end and shout 'yes' as the final whistle went. Shows commitment. What a player. Nice finish from JayRod too, and great team goal, that. Martina was pretty good too, on the whole, though his marking is a bit sporadic. On the whole, a very positive start and hope it gives confidence and momentum for Sunday, which is a must win.
