You know what, I think that's a good penalty; struck very hard, into the corner.

 

Unfortunately, the 'keeper picked the correct side.

 

Missed opportunity.

[PoohBear 1,154]

Unbelievable.  He looked a bit nervous when standing over the ball.  Hit the ball at a decent height for the keeper.

 

feck.

 

well done for standing up for it though Hagi

I think it was an easy one for the keeper mate, right height for him to dive for unfortunately.

 

Well, easy for a penalty, still a great reaction from the keeper.

The height was iffy, but it was close to the post and struck very hard.

I fear that we will regret missing three (3) gilt edges chances in that half.

He didn't look nervous at all.

If we thought last week was bizarre, then this game is even more so.

 

After a nervous first 5mins or so, we've been the better team by a distance and should be winning by at least two goals.  Only the Braga goalkeeper has stopped us putting the tie beyond the hosts and as much as we can be critical of Kamberi and Hagi for not taking the chances, we should remain positive for the second half.

 

Lots of football to played but we've done well at the back, competed well in midfield and created a few chances.  Yes, there have been a few slack passes and it's a real disappointment we're not in front but I hope the team keep their heads high as they've done well in that half.

We are still so slack with the ball, our whole game was based on playing quick forward passing and it has gone since beating Separate Entity FC. We can't afford to keep missing good chances like we have done tonight again, never mind missing a penalty!.

Still, as it stand they are not putting us under much pressure, the best chances have been ours.

It was a fantastic reaction save from the keeper.  He guessed right but still had to get an incredibly strong hand on a well hit shot.

 

It happens.

You might be right but, as per the first leg and the first half of this one, we should hopefully get a few more...
