AZ Alkmaar Vs Aston Villa Post-Match

[Somniloquism]

Slightly concerned we only had 5 shots at goal, yes all on target but the one of them was Bailey's effort saved for Watkins to put in so four chances really. Clinical definitely but normally we carve out a lot more chances.

Did Cash steal your wife or something?

To be fair I thought Cash was poor defensively tonight

Loved Emi Martinez waiting ages for them to press him. Quite right too. They were the home team.

41 seconds apparently.

Their two forwards were telling each other to go but no one would. Opposition fans whistle about time wasting but balls in play it’s up to their players to do something about it.

Same points, but  we're second to Legia Warsaw? We have a better goal difference (+ 3 to their +1)? Different rulings or what?

[Somniloquism]

Shame Legia won as they are above us on the table on I assume head 2 head. So we definitely have to funeral them in the  home match 4 something.

Result against each other!

Yea he was easily beaten a few times.

[Bad English]

Is it not something to do with the fact that they have beaten us?

Is it done on head to head result between the 2 teams on equal points?

Yes...
This is how teams which are on the same points are ranked:

Points in head-to-head matches among the tied teams;
Goal difference in head-to-head matches among the tied teams;
Goals scored in head-to-head matches among the tied teams;
If more than two teams are tied, and after applying all head-to-head criteria above, a subset of teams are still tied, all head-to-head criteria above are reapplied exclusively to this subset of teams;
Goal difference in all group matches;
Goals scored in all group matches;
Away goals scored in all group matches;
Wins in all group matches;
Away wins in all group matches;
Disciplinary points (direct red card = 3 points; double yellow card = 3 points; single yellow card = 1 point);
UEFA club coefficient.

So a nice simple solution then .....b!oody hell

Fair enough but the only thing that poster has posted all night is complaints about Cash. Seems a bit odd, that's all.

It was an away game to an opposition that had been doing very well so I'm not too fussed. As long as we put them away when we get them which we did.

[VillaTim]

Cash had a decent game I thought . They all did . Tielemans MOTM

[Legion]

Anyone got a link to the highlights? I was at work all evening so missed it.
