Port Vale had: More Possession Higher duel success rate More aerial duels won More corners More passes More passes in opponents half More crosses Better crossing accuracy More shots Way better tackle success rate Fewer fouls conceded Fewer yellow cards Zero goals. Footballs a funny game isn't it
Yeah I noticed that, Tinpot Vale (soz I couldn't resist that lol) had the stats that most home teams in a match would be proud of. But we must have nullified them and closed them down, quickly and effectively. Can't say better than that. Btw, James who ?.
Not seen any stats but even if they had better crossing accuracy in the stats, our crossing was miles better. Certainly looks like something we’ve been working on.
The first 25 minutes just highlights that if you don’t score when you are having a good spell in the game then it comes back to bite you, big time in Vale’s case.
I've heard he's pulled a muscle in his back though, from having to pick the ball out of the net 7 times.
Btw, did you hear their manager Andy Crosby lol. Saying he thinks their keeper is one of the best, if not the best in Lg One.
I reckon they had 72% first half and 30% second half to get that 51% possession overall. Lucky to be 2-0 up at half time but they were well and truly battered that 2nd half
Yeah but that was wolves 8-1 against man city. The useless two hats couldn't even keep a clean sheet like we did.
