CCL Sundowns 3 - 0 Lobi

Post by truetalk »

Have no idea why Nigerian sides feel they need to sit back & soak up pressure away from home.

Sundowns have had about 5 shots on targt in the 1st 5 minutes. Lobi acting like they just got off the plane.

Pitch uncharacteristically bad. I have never seen such a patchy pitch in South Africa.

Lobi nearly equalised. Good goalkeeping from Uganda's Dennis Onyango.

Lobi almost equalize. Keeper makes a save, rebound just wide with a Lobi guy half a foot from tucking it in.

Good chance for Sundowns, good save by Lobi keeper Kayode.

Sundowns breaching Lobi's defence with relative ease. Another near miss there with the attacker hitting the bar.

Lobi living dangerously, another close shave. Good save by Kayode.

I think I see Keshi's former assistant (the Togolese guy) beside Solomon Ogbeibe on the Lobi bench.

Both keepers chopping shots.

2-0. Defensive error yet again. Their offside trap is not working.

3-0. Just as I was typing, Lobi concede again. Their defence is in disarray.

You might not believe this folks, but Lobi concede straight from kickoff. Less than 15 seconds after THEY kicked off.

I wonder if they just arrived in SA.

3-0.

I'm out folks

HT.
Lobi attack well but do not defend well. All the defending is left to the defenders. The strikers and midfielders do not defend.

Lobi looks like a very poor team by ACL standards. Sundowns look much better than them. Their players look better and their passing is more systematic

They (Lobi) move the ball well when they are attacking but when they lose it, their structure breaks down. They need a Pep to teach them how to defend from the front.

They are better than this showing. Just waiting for some back-end story; maybe the normal Naija admin nightmare. It'll be interesting to know when the got to SA.

FT 3-0.
Lobi bottom of their group. To stand any chance of progressing, they must win their last game against Asec at home while Wydad of Morocco must lose at home to Sundowns.
I think it is safe to say that Lobi is out.
