REPORT

Not much to say, have we?

First time of the season we concede 3 goals.

We were only marginally dominated in possession and passes. Both teams were low in pass accuracy at a miserable 77%.

But when it comes to sheer waste, we overdid ourselves by wasting 10 out of 13 attempts at goal, actually more than our opponents who taught us a dire lesson in efficiency by slotting in 3 goals out of 4 shots on target.

In spite of earning 5 corner kicks, we were reduced to committing three times as many fouls to survive the encounter.

Truth be told, although we started well enough, this competition leaves little to stimulate players who know all the time they do not have to worry about relegation. It was simply too hard for our completely new staff to motivate players into a competition devised primarily for financial and promotional reasons.

The real season will only start after the World Cup break.

By then we will have to be ready.

And there is no reason we should not, what with a team with real potential already recruiting more quality.

The new staff will have time to concentrate on real issues and real motivation.

Time to refresh ourselves and embark into a new adventure!
