Proud of our players to have managed to score 2 goals at their stadium, though I thought we gave too much respect to RM. Our formation was defensive(?) in the sense that we just let them have the ball.
Nasti had a good game for his debut, 2nd goal was not his fault..i don't think anybody could have closed down Benzema, the way he did a quick turn and took a shot..
Hart could have done better for the third goal, though I think he was expecting the defenders to take care of Ronaldo, a mistake since he should have been on his toes, especially when it concerns Ronaldo.
If we were planning to play just one striker up front, I felt it should have been Dzeko..Tevez tried his best but was largely ineffective trying to take control of long balls against much taller RM players. Once Dzeko came on, Tevez was much better playing a support role.
Have to say Yaya was brilliant, just wish he could have converted that chance he had..
Gutted we lost, but we played a good game..my thoughts on the RM players - they were quick, really pressured and bullied our players off the ball..then when our players tried to do the same, they went down as if struck by lightning, bunch of pansies.
Hope Mancini learns from this, and we win enough of our remaining games to go through to the next round..
