Of course, but that’s by exploiting space on the break

When it came down to it, we didn’t use the ball well enough when we turned it over

Too many safe passes, where buendia goes for the killer ball. We missed him badly.

However, I think the approach and performance was fundamentally good and our best chance of winning.

- Me and you are not on the same planet, Eddie (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Feb 15, 19:23:29
  - what about the last 20 mins though? surely worth going for 3pts when it's still 0-0 at 75' (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 15, 19:25:57
    - Of course, but that’s by exploiting space on the break (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Feb 15, 19:28:33
      - I agree, but I just would've liked to see us be more positive in the last part (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 15, 19:33:27
        
        I think their goal was at the crucial moment to be honest (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Feb 15, 19:35:33
        
        Duda for Emi was the obvious one for me. Win the ball back deep and commit a man or two (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 15, 19:38:07
        
        Yes - possibly (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Feb 15, 19:41:07
    - That's my point. They were turning the screw (NCFC) - eddie, Feb 15, 19:28:26
      - can't argue with that. We were under pressure and needed to change the ryhthm regardless (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 15, 19:29:56
        
        They came on after about 55 mins didn’t they? But yes proactive (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Feb 15, 19:50:29
        
        yeah 60 apparently. we had over 15 minutes to react to that before they scored (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Feb 15, 19:59:11
        
        Buendia should have come on immediately after they scored. (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Feb 15, 20:14:03
  - So how do you win games without scoring we had more of a go (NCFC) - eddie, Feb 15, 19:25:28
