OttawaSaint Posted 19 December, 2020 Share Posted 19 December, 2020 You just know that the handball by Sterling if done by a Saints player in our box then Dean would have had no hesitation pointing to the spot. I know it hit his leg but what’s his arm doing there? Preventing Bertrand getting the ball, that’s what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, so they may have scored a couple at the death when we pushed men on, but overall we looked incredibly secure and composed. Very pleased with that display. I never like losing, but it certainly takes the edge off the pain when the display is as good as that. Far better than midweek. Cant wait for the next game. Don't always feel like that.

The lucky break in front of goal didn't fall for us today. We move on to the next one on Boxing Day Vestergaard my man of the match today - he was immense again today:) Edited 19 December, 2020 by davefizzy14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To have a side like City time wasting, running down the clock and corner-flagging might not have won us any points but it showed how much we are respected.
