Just before he subbed him a ball was played wide to James who just stood and waited for it and a Swiss player easily got there before him.Originally Posted by Gofer Blue
He waited for it presumably because he was tired out.
I was not surprised he was substituted and I disagree with criticism of the manager on that score.
However, if Switzerland had continue to play as they started the second half we were out of that game and the tournament. Our central defendars are hopeless if opponents run at them. Fortunately Switzerland started to drop back long before they needed to protect their lead.
A very good point in the end.
