Hayters gotta keep on Hayting.
We were pretty darn unlucky not to score against Costa Rica. Especially with a controversial one disallowed. Against Aus the first game we actually created some very good chances, conceded a banger and were unlucky to lose 1-0. Second game against Aus we attacked them and created chances but unfortunately played poorly in the key moments and their fringe players took advantage and they won 2-0.
Only game you are correct about is Peru game - we did create nothing in that, but if it hadn't been for a Sail error (hmm, seems familiar), then we looked in position to draw that 0-0.
So yeah, we did look like scoring goals, our attackers just couldn't bloody finish. Didn't even look like scoring? What a load of nonsense.

"pretty darn unlucky not to score against Costa Rica "-The opposition knows your team is crap and give you 60% of the ball and you still can't score. That is not unlucky that is incompetence.
"Aus the first game we actually created some very good chances, conceded a banger and were unlucky to lose 1-0."- So our benchmark for a "tight loss" is creating "very good chances" which we could not finish? I thought a team that was any good could finish "A very good chance" but call me old fashioned. Do you also mention the all the chances that Australia did not finish?
" Second game against Aus we attacked them and created chances but unfortunately played poorly in the key moments and their fringe players took advantage and they won 2-0. "-We lost at home! To Australia B! Got dominated 40-60 in possession and shots on target 2-6. This is not a "tight loss".
"Only game you are correct about is Peru game - we did create nothing in that, but if it hadn't been for a Sail error (hmm, seems familiar), then we looked in position to draw that 0-0."- So if Peru had not scored due to the Sail error then they would not have launched further attacks due to their fear of the dangerous NZ offense? They again dominated us in possession 40-60 and out shot us 2-8?! Not a "tight Loss" and good riddance to your buddy Hayzo Mourinho.
