Let's put the pressure back on Egpyt. Have them try and park the bus for the final 10.

Crocombe has been average in goal for sure, slow to move to the ball on the third, soft hands for the second.
Defence clearly fatigued
but the moment that changed momentum was their second goal - which came from the non-foul call on Old,.

We would've won this with Paulsen in goal, terrible every goal, terrible distribution

Awesome first half has been overshadowed by the display in the second. Egypt are just a class above us and it's showing. No harm in that.

We would have won both games with AP. Dude was immense for the nix and AFC and now is rotting in the polish leagues.

Could have done much better, maybe.

Dunno, I'd put money on AP tipping the 2nd one round the post, but yeah defence to blame. It's not a great back line to be honest.

I think relying on Payne and Boxall has been an issue too.

We've led 3 times this WC and have let it go each time - opposite of what our usual issue is..Bit of a shame

Definitely not scapegoating cuz our defense needs a fucking smack with all these free headers.
But Crocombe can't hold onto shit. It's like he's got magnets in his hands that repel the ball. Been piss poor with his handling all game. His only saving grace is that the last two goals were actually hard shots to save.

Paulsen is simply quicker in his reactions, so probably would have done better with the third, I'd hope he would have been stronger with the second.
Either way we need to win against Belgium who will be chasing their first win too, so it's gonna to be very tough!

Baz needs to give himself an uppercut for his subs.
It’s abundantly clear that Singh only has 55 mins in his legs.
Also McCowatt for the first goal didnt commit to the tackle as he was on a yellow card.
Two basic 101 coaching decisions which should have been made.

yeah which is correct according to FIFA rules, but it ignores the clear favoiurtism between arab nations against the rest of the world.

Came down to Egypt coach made tweaks at ht, changed the game, Egypt were on top there after, Baz never reacted to that, didnt even attempt to shore up the midfield or defence and just waited for them to score, baffling management. Surely Bindon would of been better when it was backs against the walls then Singh?
Crocombe awful, needs dropping not just the first goal, his general kicking and parrying every single shot. Payne is just a terrible player, surely Bindon would be better there?
Singh showed why he has consistently dropped down divisions, a gust of wind could push him over, the weakest footballer I have ever witnessed.
Another winnable game thrown by non reactive tatical changes.
