to do Shiba Saki nakatomo played into the middle but he’s there to clear it quick ball forward is that a foul yes the referee’s given it Schuler they’re not they’re not good first touch and almost as good a second Ah that’s a great effort there was very little backlift to indicate what was coming penetration to go with all this possession out to the left it goes lovely bit of skill there could try cutting inside here Yoshida forward it goes he’s made sure that that won’t get through Schuler kundawan goes looking defending of the desperate variety

very well to intervene sane gorgeous control there gimmick Muller gone dark deals with it effortlessly well that first 45 minutes didn’t deliver as we’d hoped lots of effort but a lack of quality with the finishing has left us hoping that someone can step up and produce something a little more magical nakatomo gimmick Muller cubic out to the right played back in hit into the middle and that has been cleared nakatomo nakatomo Verna played out to the right lovely feet whipped in nagatomo shibasaki nakatomo and he’s on a charge fine run and he’s happy to keep

going shots to cross here well it seems obvious that the plan is to to try and get their passing game going again but not with that lack of quality Muller cubic 21 cubic and it’s played forward a real chance nagatomo attempts a clearance could run down the left what can they make of it freight run this is covered quite a distance in the middle Japan making a fresh attempt to release someone in behind from back to front and this is something different and it’s sunny pumps it into the area and the through ball is intercepted

promising run he’s making on the right it’s going long oh he’s in he’s good for it goes ah given such an open invitation he was always going to shoot yeah I really can’t say enough as to how good the final ball was it took the defense out of the equation for that split moment and the damage was all done foreign has been a blessing for this team you know what a great start to the second half plays a clever pass shubasaki built chasing the game trailing by one yeah it looks like a change of approach

and it may just freshen things up Muller and here’s Muller lovely bit of skill Muller with the delivery shaped by The Keeper he’s read that well shivasaki almost an hour gone what are you thinking well the time has arrived to start taking risks they may well be happy just to level this Tomo some good play on the left hand side now to profit from it Muller sane goes looking nice little chip and he’s there to cut it out that’s what has to be done now no question about it and Jim there’s not too much subtlety

or sophistication about this it really is a question of needs must spot on Peter shibasaki Vana and again they run up against stubborn defending just brushed off the ball there he wasn’t very far from making something happen by himself lovely to see he’s got the ball glued to his feet regardless of the outcome it is good to see someone running at the defense like that great strength too strong for his opponent sorry foreign gets it back that’s one way of trying to make things happen there’s a few who could follow that example plenty of appeals

but the referee is not interested loses his balance and loses the ball cubic Bola Verna has it in a wide position so what next it’s been lever clear it’s a great Gallop down the right hand side foreign ball swung in Verna cubic battles to win it back well the balls come loose and the chase is on the one Muller that is terrific skill looking for a decent ball in cubic yeah that does look a foul referee’s given a free kick there could be trouble here for now the referee is keeping his cards in his pocket

oh he’s pulled off a fine save absolutely terrific terrific reflexes goalkeeping at its very best nakatomo looks to thread it through the defense can get it clear and it’s nagatomo a really good feat shubasaki 75 minutes played shibasaki there’s a real appetite from them to finally put this game to bed but will they time to deliver plays it out to the wing sunny terrific surge down the right repelled by The Keeper Japan Merit full marks for their attitude and application in trying to win this it means an awful lot obviously oh that is lovely footwork

or arcadiness from either team this pitch is go for it territory right now cubic good one good ball it’s found its Target going through and he’s looking at the referee but the referee is shaking his head shivasaki five minutes left on the clock you wonder if that’s it now but there may be one more opportunity Peter for a late late steal here to place it towards the front shibasaki Yoshida if we’re going to get a winner it’s got to come now while both sides might have to settle for a draw here although there’s still a

chance for one last fling I’ll get the better of his opposite number whistle’s gone that’s uh foul the referee has resisted the temptation to go to his pocket it’s just a stern lecture it’s come loose you wonder if that’s it now but there may be one more opportunity Peter for a late late steal here questions were asked but he’s given the answers who’s ball who’s gonna get there nagatomo cubic Muller cubic out to the right played back in hit into the middle and that has been cleared nagatomo foreign ER played out to the right lovely
