Not the best start

08/09/12

The football season for expats juststarted for us and we played against a Russian team whom we lost 5-3 against.We should have spread out the ball more and played the ball faster instead oftrying to dribble through the opponent. I should try to go up front more oftenand try to help the midfield and attackers to move forward since I'm good atdribbling and fast enough to be able to dash along the wing and cross it in orsomething like that. However, I think I would have marked the opponent betterand stopped them from getting a shooting opportunity since they scored twicebecause no one stopped them from shooting. Next week, I will try to be lessafraid to go up even though I'm a defender and try to support the offensiveplayers so that we have more chances at goal. I will also mark my players moreeffectively so that they don't have the chance to build momentum with the ball.
