The stats and my eyes show that we absolutely did not look like the team most likely to concede before the red card. You are suffering from false memory syndrome brought on by disappointment. 4 of SU's 5 second half goal attempts were after the sending off.
Yes, we should have scored a second before the red card. We had enough chances to do so. but we still had 60% possession in the second half up to the red and they hadn't troubled us at all. Mitoma, Joao Pedro and Adingra were giving them trouble and we could well have scored a second in the last...
We had 6 shots with 4 on target first half, 5 shots with 2 on target second half. 71% possession first half, 60% up to the red card second half, less than 40% after the red card. They were doubling up on Mitoma and struggling with Joao Pedro until the red.
No, we didn't. Second half we had 5 shots with 2 on target and 50%possession vs their 5 shots with 1 on target. Up to the red card we were at 60% possession for the second half.
We were in control until the red and then the game swung completely.
I didn't think he was shocking. He let a bit go in the second-half but no howlers. He gave us a reasonable amount of protection. We lost our composure completely after the red. That was the problem.
