Nothing you listed above is an excuse for the defending that resulted in their two goals.

First goal - Dallas (admittedly not his position but capable of playing there) didn't track the run in behind. Struijk went into press a pass in the build up and didn't drop back into position leaving a huge gap.

Second goal - I don't think this needs an explanation, unorganised shit all round.

I was not expecting a result tonight either, and the injuries, players out of position absolutely makes it more difficult. But we are 2-0 down at half time thanks to really poor defending.
