yellowrider120 763 Posted December 3, 2022 The Boers have (at times) rolled back rhe years with some sublime goals and possession play. Not on a par with the glory days of 74 and 78 but I would love to see them finally lift the trophy. The old boy Van Gaal is a feisty character but experience in bucket loads. Would not discount them at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted December 3, 2022 Suicidal defending today (you do need to mark the other team’s players) but other than that Mrs. Lincoln I thought they were pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mello Yello 2,296 Posted December 3, 2022 I wonder if Josh was sat watching his Country play the Dutch and thinking...."Where have I witnessed that disappointing defending before?".... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At half time they are running on about how much of a magician he is to have scored that. To me, it looked like a hit and hope - nine times out of ten it would have been blocked.
