History for Global Game

Here's my $0.02 worth, Global. The major difference between the teams was the work rate off the ball. CT pressed the FC midfield and defence hard; FC are coached to retain the ball and ultimately couldn't withstand CT's physical strength and pressing game. From 0-0 at 10mins, it was 0-3 at 16 minutes, and the game was gone. FC kept to their style of play with Sean Morris doing his best to hold the fort in the middle of the park, but the pressure told again with further goals at 33, 37 and 41 mins. So 0-6 at half-time. 2nd half was slightly less of a stroll for CT who missed a penalty and had what appeared to be a legitimate goal ruled offside. Lessons? For teams playing FC, press them hard. For FC, up your work rate to cope with a pressing opponent.
