Most of the games in this world cup have been very close, with Set-pieces playing a crucial role in deciding winners vs losers.

Even Saudi Arabia held Uruguay to 1 goal, again conceded on a set piece.
Even the big countries like Spain, Brazil, Argentina etc have been vulnerable to set pieces as well.

I know this has been an issue for us in recent games, so I am concerned, especially against Iceland that rely primarily on set pieces. I hope/I am sure we have worked hard on our defending and taking of set pieces in training, but I hope we execute on game day in 2 days.
