I'm watching rte, t for torture, how long do these rugby games go on for? it's worse than watching paint dry.
What has O'Dowda done to deserve a place in the starting lineup? Long and McGeady must feel very hard done by to be left out.
Denmark off to a great start and they are definitely targeting Ward down our left flank.
Club form I guess, over the other two.Quote:

We need to be more negative.
Thought that was in!
we have used up 3 of our 9 lives
Decent first half, the Danish possession and territory doesn't bother me too much as we're set up that way.
Sisto's miss was a big let-off, but Christie should have done better too, needed to cut it back.
Christie's chance really enraging, no one supported him properly! You can tell he was looking to lay it off, waited too long, then had to take it on himself too close to Schmeichel. Murphy either didn't have the pace, or didn't think Christie would get into the position he did. A terrible missed opportunity.
Played better in last five. Up to that, same old, same old : contain until HT, ride our luck as much as we can, hope for a set piece chance. We cope when Denmark are slow in buildup, struggle when they break at speed. Fitness levels will count for a lot.
We are on the up, we have every chance to sock it to them in the second half.
A goal would be nice, 2 ideal.
It was a rope a dope first half, we looked good in those last 5 minutes as if let off the leash.
We should go for this game in the 2nd half. We need a player revolt.
What a Bjelland
Randolph man of the match?
Wow
Prescient from BeglinQuote:

Disagree with Beglin that Denmark deserved to win and made all the running.
I don't think they really deserve much credit for the territory and possession they had when we just handed it to them. It wasn't an achievement.
And for all the possession and territory they had, they didn't create that much. Just a couple of real chances.
The issue for me is that even though I think we saw enough tonight to suggest that we don't need to be so cautious and show them so much respect, I imagine the second leg is still likely to look pretty similar, with us keeping it tight and looking to contain.
Limited Denmark to three chances. We were alright in the second but needed to create more. Long, Hoolohan on for second leg. We can do it. I hope. Still in it.
