We simply have to outscore them. Our once solid defense was so solid that we felt safe to just sit back and let teams like Barca/ Madrid attack us. And their attacking quality overwhelmed us in two CL finals in the end.

dull first half by a team that has never played together before. Not really surprising. Lucky to be one up, hopefully, we can build and mature.
Asamoah is playing a high risk game so far imo. Dribbling in places he shouldn't and so forth. Costa and Licht isn't gelling so well imo but it looks like they are learning each other and will become a strong force in the future.
Would like to see some stats on Sturaro after this game...

Mixed half, some nice moves but far too scrappy.

Pjanic has been great.

Mandzukic has seemed surprisingly lazy. He needs to cover their LB because there are too many 2 v 1s on Asamoah down that side.

Asamoah has had a strange game, he has done a few very good things and a few terrible things.

Benatia once again showing a lack of concentration at times with a no-look backpass and letting Casto run off him in a dangerous position.

Sturaro doesn't seem to be doing much. He had one very good cover tackle but has allowed Birsa far too much space (which I think would be his main role today).

I'd like Higuain to get in the box more and we should be more direct to get the ball to him. He has been decent but too much away from goal.
