Jamaica
vs Panama
Senior Analyst (Member)
I
sat for 5 minutes numb in disbelief and spent
the entire night replaying every details of the
game in my head. I left the stadium singing the
only line I know from the popular song "just
one of those days". It truly was something
surreal, if we were playing Haiti it might not
have been so difficult to understand what occurred
last night. Something inside started searching
to identify flaws in the coaching of the team
which resulted in this loss but how can you advance
such an argument when the team got at least 10
pretty good chances to win the game? We were the
victims of poor finishing and conversion of relatively
easy chances. What is also very interesting is
the fact that we were let down by not one individual
but several. I think there is still some aspect
of our game that needs critical analysis and hopefully
fixing.
Game
Plan & Strategy
I am very disappointed that the structure we used
against USA was abandoned. It appears that having
gone behind early we panicked and instead of playing
our usual game we started booting the ball from
our defensive third into PanamaÕs defensive third
using our midfielders as a net in a game of "foot"
volleyball.
