Piscopo while inconstent and injury prone had much more of a touch of class about him. Armiento looks pretty much incapable of dribbling past a player or putting someone in with a perfectly weighted pass. His two shots that became goals are basically the only decent things he has done for us
Rubbish. He's fast becoming one of the best corner takers the Nix have had in years. The wind may have helped (or hindered) him today, I have no idea. But nearly all his swinging takes caused problems for the Roar.
The guy is in a big learning curve re the full back role, but to date he's been defensively sound, scored 2 goals, and created genuine chances. He played the full 90 mins today, and looked pretty shagged.
The sight and sound of a team mate stinging the gloves of the opposition keeper lifts a team. You know you are not far off scoring, and Bouzanis's block could easily have fallen to the feet of a Nix player. Too many times in the recent seasons the Nix have played it endlessly around the box for no shot taken.
I remember the corresponding home Roar game to end last season was truly dire. Was there a Nix shot on target that day?
