Greenacre almost creates something from nothing from a throw in. Goes high over the bar though. valeo2009-07-22 00:17:49

Chinese team with two good, dangerous crosses into box. Lucky to get away with it.

Chinese seem to be struggling with our physicality a little

 

Neat Hearfield cross

Hearfield and Bertos have been playing decent down the wing. Hearfield has put in several good ball while Leo has looked lively, trying to beat players etc

Asian trialist looks buggered already. Hasn't had much chance to show his wares because of our disturbing penchant for longballs but has battled hard.

Think the Chinese team had the better of most of the first half but we came back into it...and then they scored.

Been a little disappointed with our play to be honest. Our biggest problem is still the same as last year - the transition between defence and attack.

Pretty unlucky for Bertos's shot being saved by the keeper.
 
Don't think I've ever seen Siggy let someone get round him like that.

Ok, finally got it up and running smoothly... just as the halftime ads begin. What are our chances of getting a goal back? Think Potty will come on second half (I assume he would switch with the Chinese fella).

I'd prefer Greenacre comes off so we can see as much of the triallists as possible

Fair enough. Guess there's a balance to be struck between giving the trialists a go and giving Greenacre as much time as possible to gel with the team before the season starts.

I reckon we need him playing with the rest of the squad before the season starts as much as possible

I thought Bertos was unlucky. Seems to hit the keepers foot when he was diving, he knew nothing about it.

Commentary is in Cantonese which is why it's not on my TV in Beijing...
