A decent performance again, but we are still weak in the box. All of the goals against on this tour have turned out to be personal mistakes. First vs. Copenhagen two long shots that should had been blocked or pressed away.

Then a dribbler that was totally free at the right side, Gallimore was in the middle of nowhere there.

The last goal against AB Copenhagen was a big mistake by Hughes.

Today, against Herfölge, was another miss by Hughes as he dropped the ball into a Herfölge strikers feet. The second came after poor marking at our left where Ward played at the time. He was heading back from an offensive raid at the time.

Our goal came on a rebound after a missed Thompson penalty. Rowan finally got the ball into the net.

Not sure about the toilet talk but Groves collected the players at the middle of the pitch after the game and talked to them. Afterwards he was quite calm when he talked about the game, I think he knows how to treat people. There is no point to talking down to our players, but get the best out of it.
