That pitch is a dog.

How are they in international competition? I just saw highlights of the first half; saw one kick by their player in the penalty area, and it looked like a golfer had used a pitching wedge on a sandy surface.

these okes have the right idea...don't let the ball touch the ground.

The wind isn't helping either.

One of the worst pitches I have ever seen. Rostov player did his shoulder in when he fell onto it :wtf:

Good result though. Rostov have been terrible away from home this season so OT should be an easy game. They definitely won't be used to playing on a pitch like ours.

Quite frankly, I would have taken that result ahead of the game.

What an abysmal playing surface.

Anyway, Jones asleep for their goal according to the commentators.

What I really did not like was how our GK (Romero?) seemed to turn his head away when the goalscorer was bearing down on him. You need nuts to be a world class GK. Flinching at a striker rushing at you....

Did you not see Zlatan slip and create a creator?

Yeah seems like it was easy enough to defend on a pitch the opposing players have no control..OT should be a better game for us.

I think Mourinho got what he wanted out of this game; no one got hurt, no red cards, we didn't loose and we got an away goal.
