yeah, Ukraine were sluggish in a lot of areas and that will be exploited by the quicker and nimbler teams

there were times where they had every man in their own half towards the end and while I can see WHY you would do that as damage limitation, its not what your fans or country want to see

I'm a risk taker, I'd have literally sooner took the gamble and tried to nick a goal/point in the last 10 mins rather than sit everyone in my own half

if we lost, fuck it we tried

a loss by one goal or by ten is still a loss, that's how I look at it
