It’s not quite as simple though. Alcaraz comes out to the ball when he realises what’s going on and then there’s a massive gap behind him. It still had to be finished but 30 seconds before half time you expect the team to do their jobs. The defensive positioning looks horrific when you see the options their centre half had but that’s more down to us not working from the front, probably at a time when Di Santo was still throwing a paddy on the right. I don’t think the defence actually did that bad yesterday.
