On Thursday, though, the U-23 men s national team did not win in style in their first match of Olympic qualifying. They did not go guns blazing into some attacking masterpiece.
For most of the game, they were not on the front foot and, by and large, they held on for dear life, relying on a hot goalkeeper to bail them out after sloppy mistakes.
However, on this day, for this team, in this situation, style didn t matter. Possession numbers, completed passes, shots on goal – those didn t matter either. What mattered was a result, even an ugly one.
