Adam Reach goal


Recommended Posts

Hope we can get more set piece goals. Seeing a well worked set piece is as exciting and satisfying as any other goal. 

 

Glad to see Pulis saying he sees Reach as a wide man. When he's put out left he's been out top scorer from midfield and top assist man. Hoping the goal gives him a confidence boost.

You also notice a great block from Paterson, who just jumps in front of his defender at the last second, blocking 2 of them off so leaving the gap for Reach to shoot into the corner.  Lovely football theatre!  If all of that routine has been created since TP arrived, that's great news.

Rather silly tactics of Swansea to crowd the goal area like that, especially after the Ref had had words about pushing - they were really inviting him to give a foul.

How did Ayew not get a 2nd yellow card?  He follows the Ref for yards, still blurting after seeing yellow, then waits for him after the final whistle to give him some more.

Also noted the pitch, looked like a herd of elephants had trampled all over it.  Shocking condition for an ex-premier league club

Our man, can't see who it is, that runs to the near post and past it is genius as he take his man with him and opens the gap.

 

Well worked

Reach was near the back post at the start of the move, he was closely marked, we had 2 players infront of him with their markers. Reach ran away from goal and across the penalty area while his marker was blocked by our 2 men. Reach was then unmarked. His marker had to go the other way round our 2 men and couldn't catch Reach.

 

Watch it and you will see it quite clearly.

 

It was a well worked move. We did similar in a previous goal where Windass scored.
