I agree with the "luck of football" comment by JV - with a bit of luck we could have drawn that game and gained a point but there is no point crying over spilt milk.

The issue for me was that the team seemed off their natural rhythm, probably due to a long break. It should not happen but it can happen and it did. We hopefully get sorted for the next game in Sydney and move on, since we thankfully have no major injuries.

The sense of how undercooked the team was last night is borne out by (my own) view that our best player on the park - not counting Moss - was Louie Fenton.  I would normally consider Louie a tentative player at best of times, at least since his shoulder troubles.  He was doing no worse than others last night and coping better than some (better than Roly, Lia or Muscat).
