I think long ball is the only way we're gonna have a chance here, we cannot outplay Brazil (obviously), long balls with the bounce going our way a couple of times could be interesting

the same fustration you guys are having with TVNZ are being had here with 7 who spent 100million on getting the coverage... do a  search next time you guys are on facebook if you are that is? they have staged protest and started groups about seven killing soccer in their country.

Yep. We've looked most dangerous when we have won attacking free kicks it's our only hope.

tell the advertisers you are boycotting their products because of the scheduling. that will probably be effective

We are too keen to knock the long ball after two passes with no pressure from the brazilan midfield. We need to slow down get numbers into their half hold a bit more time on possession to create more options. The teams are not compact enough for counterattack but we have more space in the midfield flanks to move a few more passes than a couple of passes. We are making it easy for them to defend, they just hold back and clean up the long balls. I prefer the midfield to feed the forwards not the defence, We need build with the defence and midfield. Not comfortable with our tactics and strategy.

Have just sent off note to advertiser! This is hopeless!
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

Not having a go but don't post things like that again in here Ben. Rather kills it for the rest of us if we already know what's gonna happen.

What's the bet they ditch it at half time because 'they know what the result is gonna be'?
