They were lacking, you know, especially in the second half of the Swiss match, I thought, with all the chances that they had from corners and from long throws. voice-verified

Yeah, nothing really materialized from them. voice-verified

I know a lot of people were giving Eustachio grief for his service, and I didn't think it was ideal, but it didn't seem like they had... voice-verified

The way the modern game has gone with how much pressure you can get off set pieces, particularly corners, and you see in the Premier League all the time. voice-verified

Yeah, it just didn't feel like they ever had the right kind of setup, the right service, the right guys crashing at the right times to try and make life difficult. voice-verified

It was very disappointing. voice-verified

There is a I would call it an obscure ruling, which they have used in the past, to be fair, which allows the disciplinary committee to. voice-verified

not to overturn a red card, but to suspend the suspension. voice-verified

I think that's the important thing here is nobody is saying that we have rescinded the red. voice-verified
