The other basic as a defender is to make sure you get to the ball first. It’s also a basic for a striker, and their players did it better than ours.

First chance I’ve had to see the red card, and it was ridiculous. It would have been highly contentious in a league game, but to give it in a meaningless pre-season friendly simply beggared belief. Apart from that, a good comeback with 10 men.
