Come on man, let's stay positive here, Strinic is not a world beater, but he's done alright, probably not as match fit due to rubbish season, Pivaric subbed alright for him, we conceded our goal from the other side of the pitch dough, I heard on a podcast analysis that the Denmark throwin was illegal, the guy practically threw it with one hand spinning the ball in an awkward fashion which bamboozled our defense.
Perisic right now worries me most, he needs to hit some form now, we relied on his speed and finishing in the past, he must come good for the next game/s, Rebic also could improve his composure and finishing-the kid should have shot immediately when he passed Schmeichel, what was he waiting for after dribbling past Kasper - almost inviting the Danish defender to foul him when he had an OPEN GOAL - madness!
SLF, Rebic WAS the only player who has played at an high level during 120 mins, yeah 120 mins... Ok, he did a dribble against Schmeichel but without the fault, for sure this was a goal. Jorgensen did his fault exactly in the time when Rebic wanted to strike the ball.
Really, I don't know if you saw how he ran all the time?!
I watched the game 3 times and at 110', he did a sprint on 100 meters, from our box only for make the press on Schmeichel when we send the ball away from our box by a Kovacic strike.
This guy is crazy and strongly motivated, a BEAST !
Really, you can't ask at a guy to make this kind of effort and in the same time, score in one touch etc... front of Schmeichel who is a really strong and good GK.
Imagine, if he tried to score during the one on one and see him miss his strike... All the croatian fans will be here to demolish him because he had the occasion to win the game !
Plus and this is REALLY IMPORTANT, he did his dribble in the box and all the strikers knows how a GK would not take a risk in this position. This is the reason why he did this dribble because in his mind, Rebic was convinced that if there is a contact in the box, it would be a Penalty for us, red card for the GK etc...
And finally, Rebic is really confident on his tricks when our Perisic in not !
I'm clearly not worried at all by Rebic who is in the form of his life, but for Perisic, this is really complicated and we've seen agaisnt Denmark how he is hesitant and by times really bad...
