0' - kickoff

LFC wearing their spiffy black kit with an early foray that comes to nothing

3' 2nd time that saints try to beat the high line and are well caught by the offside flag.

St Mary's in good voice and of course, booing their ex players

5' Yoshida gives the ball away and Salah gets it to the Ox steaming down the right. He crosses and but for Ward Prowse intercepting, Mane would have nodded that in.

Corner is safely dealt with by Saints.

7' - nervous moment as Adrian kicks the ball against WardProwse - fortunately it goes behind.

and another moment as they nearly break through but there is enough cover.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #4 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:10:33 pm »

9' lfc not really into a cadence yet going forward and 'soton are pressing energetically.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #5 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:13:24 pm »

12' still relatively quiet - as I type that Salah back heels to Ox who shoots wide / doesn't manage to get the ball to Bobby

jason67 · « **Reply #6 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:15:17 pm »

Slow paced game so far, not sure if that's good or bad for us.

It is a good understanding that remains between Ox and the front three.

You have to think that a goal there (or an assist to Bobby) would have given Ox all the confidence in the world.

15' mark ticks over. we remain committed to playing out from the back but not penetrating.

Ward Prowse and Milly have a head clash and have some running repairs done. Cut above Milly's eye - Prowse okay

We're down to 10 men as Milly goes for a stitch.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #9 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:17:38 pm »

16' Saints break quickly but Ox is back to defend and the ball is out for a corner

Rush 82 · « **Reply #10 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:18:30 pm »

17' - good ball in, Bobby clears but it comes back and is flashed across the goal.

No damage done

Rush 82 · « **Reply #11 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:21:02 pm »

19' - silly buggers leads to another corner for Saints. Poor kick from Adrian led to Matip having to head the ball out.

Good corner and brilliant point blank save from Adrian.

Phew

Rush 82 · « **Reply #12 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:22:18 pm »

21' - Milly back on with a big bandage. Another corner but this time it's too long and we clear comfortably.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #13 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:22:35 pm »

and it's over to Jason

We’re gonna concede a lot more goals this season if we keep giving possession away so cheaply!

Agreed.

Also, James Milner looks like a Ninja - all black kit and a headband.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #15 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:24:25 pm »

Trent whips in a beauty but just too long for Bobby to bury it

23. Looking a bit tired at the moment, James looks like that bear from the BBC children thing

25. More boos for Virgil, like he gives a fuck. Need to get our passing game together.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:27:12 pm »

Slightly better from us in the last minute or so undone by a misplaced pass by Robbo

Rush 82 · « **Reply #19 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:28:20 pm »

Ball keeps going back to Adrian. He keeps struggling to clear it effectively

jason67 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:28:21 pm »

27. Scrappy game with nothing much to report on...

29. We have a rare attack but Gini can't get it past the keeper for a cross

jason67 · « **Reply #25 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:31:59 pm »

30. Bit better by us, putting on some pressure.....

Defense looks like they’ve never met the midfield before. This has been going on since preseason. Worrying

Introductions have been made but due to midweek travel to Win Another Shinny thing there is some short term memory loss.

jason67 · « **Reply #27 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:33:09 pm »

32. Long ball over the top for Mo which he blasts over the bar

Rush 82 · « **Reply #28 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:33:26 pm »

I'm nonplussed by our defense - ball being passed into dangerous areas needlessly creating pressure.

Soton doing well to keep the ball away from the front three

Haha exactly. HT thread dicks are going to have a field day with this....

Looking like 'get to 45 without conceding and then regroup ' type of game

jason67 · « **Reply #31 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:36:46 pm »

35. They get a yellow for a challenge on Robbo...He's up and ok

jason67 · « **Reply #32 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:38:32 pm »

37. Good chance by them, cross comes in but headed over the bar

jason67 · « **Reply #33 on:** August 17, 2019, 03:43:45 pm »

41. They come again but offside. Mo gets a challenge on the back that knocks him down but gets back up

Replay shows the the Soton defender mistook Mo's back for the ball which was still flying through the air towards the pair of them. Ouch.
