00:00Well, we just felt the whole front line put a lot of work into the game the other day
00:06He's not had he's only had 190 minutes in the last five or six weeks
00:10So the other night took a lot out of him. I mean we could have stayed with it, but we thought
00:15To get speed in the front line at that moment to get energy to be able to press was was important
00:23So yeah, that's that was the decision we took with with all of the substitutes basically
00:28We we didn't press the ball with enough intensity
00:32And we kept conceding possession too cheaply and when you do those two things
00:38It's hard to have control in the game. So
00:42It led to a an anxious performance the longer the game went on and we understand that
00:48that's got to be better if we want to progress to the stages of the tournament that
00:54Everybody's expecting and delivering what we need to deliver
