There's a whole host of problems on that goal. Brillant gave the ball away, but did the midfielders give him a real outlet by being open??? It's not just on the guy with the ball, but also the people moving off the ball. The closest positional outlets were: Lopez, Ring, Sterzter, and White: three of those guys make basement money and RB knows to tightly mark the other.HOW CAN YOU NOT? This game was tough. This game was a battle. We missed our chances so it probably should have finished 0-0. That opportunity was left on the table when Sean Johnson sends that ball out to Brillant under pressure. I fault Sean more than I fault Brillant and I can't stand Brillant. Sean HAS to know that that is not the play to make. He is guaranteed to screw that situation up every time. The keeper is responsible for organizing the back line and sending that ball was the death knell.
I completely lost my shit in the stands. Take all of your individual frustrations and add on top of that a ridiculous amount of time spent on work behind the scenes FOR FREE and all you hope for in return is a win...
That's how I'm feeling. It really sucks.
I still go back to how the hell does an unmarked TMac flub a nearly open net? He had the entire frame minus the keeper to shoot at and he skies it off the underside of the crossbar. The stop-action picture sure looked like a goal, but for fcks sake just erase all doubt and hit the back of the net. A person standing 10yrds in the ocean has more of a chance of hitting dry land when urinating than TMac had of hitting that post.
