I prefer club football to internationals, and have seen a fair number of dull internationals over the years. So, I wasn't expecting too much. England's early goal meant that game management kicked in early here. Which is as it should be, but doesn't always make for a spectacular game. A few of the players had to check themselves once or twice to pull back from a possession losing attack.
There was a fair bit of pressure to get off to a winning start too, and was evident in the play. Austria forced a couple of saves fairly late on. England didn't get things their own way, and will be looking to create more.
As Austria had to push up a bit, England looked to exploit the space, making for a more interesting closing spell. There was a decent shout for an Austrian penalty. The otherwise excellent Bright allowed space for a shot, and there was the chance of some late drama.
It's been posted about the crowd composition. Lots of kids, but I thought there was a lot of noise and support.
