Maybe it has been the years following the program but I saw the group and was like..... well I hope we get a result in one of the 3 matches. Now we control our own faith, pretty cool, and agree with most on here the mentality needs to be, play to win. Not getting ahead of myself here as Turkey did have a few chances and could have scored, although the last 15-20 we were the better team, but we could very well be at 2 points right now. Much respect to the squad pushing for the win this time compared to Portugal, when the HUGE 3 points were there for the taking. In my opinion it was Turkey down the final 15-20 that would have been okay with a tie, it cost them. Exciting match for us ahead, and winning the group is there for us and what we now need to play for. Keep it up fellas! original post ^, sorry long day + excitement.

Let's hope the boys can avoid the typical Canadian letdown next game. edit: Turkey have a number of 97's with Super Lig experience, it is not a U20 team as Soccerway states. Re-watching the game again today I noticed that the commentator mentioned more than once that the Canadian team was significantly younger than the Turkish team.

spitfire Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Watching it in person they definitely looked older. The wiki squad list doesn't have ages for the Turkish players but several had full beard lol. Where did you watch the game again? Can't seem to find it here at all...

Even if it is for a month or two, totally worth it to see these games. When have we even had such a choice before.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't been able to watch any live yet (friggin kids...) but would love to check them out sometime. DAZN has the games archived and you can watch on demand.

BenFisk'sBiggestFan Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Just watch the turkey match on DAZN. Really impressed with the team as a whole. Very few people stood out either positively or negatively, but a couple people impressed me: I think both our center backs were very impressive, especially Cornelius. However, I think his tackles can be a little mistimed. Not quite ready for the full team, but really shows potential. Busti also shows a lot of confidence and he controls his area like a pro. Very impressive for a 17 year old. Didn’t really have the oportunity to stand out at any point, other than his great time wasting. overall I think the whole team is very talented. Very impressive given some of our top guys aren’t there like Davies. The coaching from both Biello and Herdman was spot on as well. I think them together make a great team. Herdman is good at getting a team to come together, Bond, and commit to the game plan. Biello is a smart tactical coach. I think we are in good hands, both the coaches and players.

But I do have reservations - he doesn't have the normal goalkeeper physique/appears quite short, and not that athletic. At the pro level, one of those things can be overcome but not both. It's a small sample size, of course, and maybe the tv skews it a bit. I don't want to sound pessimistic at this time, but will temper my own expectations of him in the future. Will be very happy to be proven wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryker911 Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 England has basically locked up the best second place team with 7 points and +5 goal difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically have to finish top of the group now. From what I can see scenarios to finish top of the group: 1. Win 2. A draw and a Turkey loss or draw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair as well the match v Turkey didn't really present many / any opportunities to display any high level athleticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Scotland top Group B and will play England in the second SF. If we win our group we'll face Mexico in the other SF. If we finish 2nd in the group we'll face France in the 5th place match. If we finish 3rd in the group we'll play Togo for 7th place. We cannot finish last in our group - yay, we got lucky ?
