The goal yesterday was totally avoidable if the nearest man stops the cross. Absolutely no use at all in standing 2 yards off the man with the ball and letting him get a cross over. See it all the time, that’s not formation. Look at the highlights. It also happened just before the goal again down that rhs. Get tighter in on your man and stop the cross!!
Many times I've seen our man running backwards in front of their player as he advances towards goal or to a better place to be able to pass to an unmarked colleague. There's no challenge - they just let them advance.
