Re: Southend Thread
Without wishing to sound like a broken record,it was again a great performance full of passion and desire.
Make no mistake Southend are a tough direct team with a lot of experienced players in it.
In the first half some of the football was sublime with good passing and moving and should have had more reward.
Southend to there credit pushed 3 upfront and forced Acci back and for a while started getting the upper hand.
As they were playing for set pieces and corners ( they had 4 players over 6-3 playing),credit has to go to the defence who stood firm and won there battles,and along with proccy and joyce only allowed them one shot on target all night.
Acci had to dig deep,and they did and still went forward looking for goals,indeed jacobson hit the bar and deano had one tipped over!.
Considering the team is full of young lads,they just play with no fear,long may it continue.
