Dire pitch and dire game as a spectacle but good result.Perhaps lucky with non penalty decision but good on the ref( he must have been told Grant is a SFC player and Arnie ex SFC coach and VAR always favours SFC-that's why he took a long time to make his decision as needed translating).

Taggart is crap-Duke looked a lot better as the CF though he came on when the Vietnam defenders were tiring.

yeah nah. taggart is a class act . you don't become top score scorer in the J-league because you're rubbish

edit sorry k-league

Going to need to be on for that one. They held the Saudi's to 1-0 overnight and showed plenty of willingness to counter hard and fast against Japan. Vietnam broke a few times but Oman will be looking to be more aggressive than that.


I dont blame Taggart for the effort last night. IMO the problem was behind him, Rogic & Mabil both had pretty poor games and as a result there was little attacking service. How both managed to avoid being hooked despite being gassed is beyond me.

i though mabil was ok . i'd rather play hrustic at 10 than rogic .
albeit that was a world class goat track .

I was giving Mabil a wrap coming in and what I saw of China he looked great. It just wasn’t working for him last night unfortunately.

Oman will be tough, they've shown a bit on the counter and will go quickly and often if given the chance. Wont want to get caught out with Souttar up high on set pieces.

 

[FFC Mariner]

We know Oman will have 11 diving, rolling timewasters behind the ball - desperately hoping for the breakaway or set piece.
Happily take 2 draws in this series
