I love it when still photos are used to show marking and positioning that 1 nano second before and after the photo, the situation was completely differentGood game?? Fuck me! Nothing was different in that game
From this position, their 20 year old 'farmer's league' striker had a free shot from just outside the 6 yard box. He is being marked by 2 players in this screen shot. Doherty is marking his man

There are 7 players just standing still during this progression, not moving. This screen shot is right after their right winger took the ball passed 2 players, laid it off to his team mate who crossed the ball to those 2 unmarked players at the far post

Observe the marking here. There are 8 players in the box, while 2 of their players remain unmarked. They hit the bar from an almost free header with this chance

Dont' forget, this game was against a team that is currently 6th in the Austrian League. Unless we pull our defensive fingers out, we ain't winning jack shit!
I could put up stills from the last 15 City games and call their defence shit too
