Oh and the way the Iranian defenders stood off Wood was almost weird. That first goal there were like 3 defenders all around, but no one actually on Wood.
The big guy had all the time he needed to take the ball down, consider his options and feed Singh. Was poor defending that I think Egypt & Belgium won't repeat.
It seems like they were specifically told to not let him get flick ons in behind, but they forgot to pressure him afterwards
Egypt aren't amazing defensively either, but they have attackers who can punish us far better than Iran. I think we play in a similar way. We need better crosses to Woods head though
