Early test. 27 mins. Belgians 1-0 Rangers, half time. They sit very deep, certainly don't press high up the pitch, Rangers probably need to up the pace a wee bit as it's all a wee bit predictable.

faraway saint Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 VAR, penalty to the Belgians, definitely arm/hand out although it was from a deflection about 2 feet away. 2-0............................going to be a tough night next week at Ibrox. 75 mins.

That was a ridiculous decision for a penalty We will have to amputate our players arms off before we go on the park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Final score 2-0, TBH the Belgians were worth a victory, compact, sat deep, overall coped well with Rangers after a shaky first 20. Could have been worse, Rangers booted one of their line in the 94th minute. As mentioned, the penalty a bit harsh, but them's the breaks. Rangers need to up the pace from the off next week, they are comfortable sitting deep so it's not going to be easy to break them down.

StanleySaint Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 It is unfortunate that the European performances from our representatives isn't what it should be but just maybe it is a true reflection of where our league is currently.

Tanser should have known to put his arms behind his back the plonker, not sure what the Rangers player could have done that's never a penalty.. We'll pay for that when VAR comes in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still have a few teams to get involved yet. So far, I agree, it looks poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted August 4, 2022 Report Share Posted August 4, 2022 I hate to say it but I fear Dundee United will go the way most Scottish teams have gone in the last umpteen years, oot. As I remember the real glory days, late 60's to early 80's, Europe, overall, has become an embarrassing and painful watch. I'd imagine most Scottish teams lose money with lengthy trips to places that hardly trip off the tongue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munoz Posted August 4, 2022 Report Share Posted August 4, 2022 Think AZ look the more dangerous in the final 3rd, but both have had an equal share of the ball. Both keepers have had one routine safe each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
