Azkals 0, Sri Lanka 1.
Great opportunities for the Azkals but no conversions yet.
Sri Lanka was definitely more aggressive, more physical. They must have been listening to all the talk about how the Azkals should cream them and decided they wanted to do some creaming of their own.
There were definitely some warning signs early on, with the Reds able to penetrate down the left flank and even had a shot at an open goal. The defensive mediocrity is definitely hurting us now.
My guess is Coach Weiss is chewing out the boys for responding to the physical play of the Reds, getting three yellow cards early on. Phil Younghusband was a shadow of his usual self and was pulled out at around the 35th minute.
For the Azkals to get back, they need to forget the physical play and go athletic. Outrun the Reds defense get the goal back.
