Hard to know how to feel after that game, we did so much right early on without luck and lacked any cutting edge in front of goal. Reminded me of the western United game earlier in the year where we could have been 3 or 4 up after half an hour. Unfortunately if you don’t convert pressure into goals you will always get burnt eventually. The ref for mine was very good outside of the pens, let the game flow and didn’t give any soft free kicks, you had to earn them which I prefer to most of the refs who reward sharkhousery.....cacace seems to have a rep for that which is the only part of his game to be improved. Elliot should have had two pens though, as soon as TPS goes to ground for the first and makes contact it is clear cut and the second one was a disgrace.
Positives were the continued emergence of Elliot as an attacking weapon and obviously Cacace was a beast. Davila and ball both need a goal badly to get the confidence back and with hooper back for the finals I can still see us doing some damage. Also enjoyed McCowatts technique on the free kick, very unlucky.
