[nas] USA-Korea -tactics.......

["MRMOORE01@PRODIGY.NET" <MRMOORE01@PRODIGY.NET>]

My report was not glowing or complimentary.
Neither was it blindly drab and overly critical and seeing through
"RED" glasses.
For all Korea's this and that.....they still cannot finish.

You wish to say they ran all over us do so.
However, tactically, I would say that statement is rather
naive. We LET them run around like damn chickens with
the heads off hoping they would run themselves into
the ground, get frustrated along with their crowd,
let them run, pressure..int he heat, and we'd try to pick
our spots.
   It was a very sinsible approach to a match where we'd
be under the brunt of the crowd and an intimidated ref
and a side who did not wnat to let the crowd down.

   Be real. Realize tactics. Disagree with them if you must, but understand what we were doing.
 Some tactics are designed to
allow some possession.  All Korea's "dominance" as you say...
earned them a point.  One more thing: I could have told anyone
there would have been a penalty called before this match....
wonder which side would have had it?????  LOL

Bottom line is that we defended slightly less well than we
    could have, Korea ran all over us, and we salvaged a good
    point with a tough draw.  Do you think USA's midfield
    possession play was good enough to merit a glowing,
    complementary report?
