International Friendly Post Match?

Weird friendly. The World Cup is some load of bollox if Ireland goes out and beats these and Canada next week. Slight forgiving nature in me for the performance. But.......BUT these lads were poor. How are we not hammering them? Cut them open twice in the first ten minutes.

Kinda didn't look like anyone could be arsed tbh. Half those lads probably just wanted to start their holidays.

Qatar clearly preserving their strength for the world cup. Canada will do the same.

Expect performances to be pretty 6/10 from everyone

Pretty much, I wouldn't expect anyone to go into committed challenges etc in a training game, these kind of friendlies usually come with gentlemans agreement to not bother with any aggression and just play a tactical light game, best thing to come out of this set of games is the likes of umeh meeting the rest of the players etc
