There’s a glaring fact here: THIS TEAM SIMPLY CAN’T SCORE.
They don’t know how to penetrate defences and can go the whole day on the field and still not able to find the back of the net. Their “brilliance” always hits a brick wall in the final third.
Just 1 win in open play and 3 goals in 5 matches (a miserly 1-0 against Tunisia).
1 win, 3 draws (in open play), and 2 loses (as it’s looking).
Very poor statistics.
The injured goalkeeper was a major help otherwise they wouldn’t have qualified for the WC.
If a team is pathetically blunt upfront like a brown and rusted knife, they’ll be bundled out in the very first round at the WC.
