Rangers gave a hunky-dory bellyful of goals
Rangers will always be a unique, incomporable institution, because it is not only a football club, it is an institution of values, with idiosyncrasy, show every weekend a purpose, an identity, a historical position in the world, even in times of transition. The atmosphere at Ibrox with The Armed Forces show that the words proud and pride always make sense. The flag went up soldiers at Sandy Jardine stand, the soft voice of Megan Adams, the looks of veterans, the bands at halftime and that banner with the support of Rangers, are the symbols that summarize the whole idea.
Th Bluenoses reached without blinking a big
win. Facing a rival with mood and nothing else, Rangers managed well the
registers, did not averse to the ball, sweet and nothing cloying, both the
central corridor until reach the gate area, as for the edges, where
Fraser Aird, sharp and incisive, well-aired to the team and tried to shake the
tree. Fraser knows stretch better the team by the sides and when use force or
even the technique. Do not falter the legs when have to touch, does not avoid
the collision and is presented in the area always with the intention of making
a shot. Intensity seems to be the buzzword, the summary of some diagnoses.
Although, with Raith refugee, Rangers were forced to play short, fast attack.
But in the collective game, however, we still discontinuous, sometimes vigorous
and effective and sometimes flat and short-sighted
McCoist reinserted some trading cards. But has
not varied in the composition of the deck. The inclusion of McGregor, ace in the
center of defense, moving Jig leftmost. The return of Kenny Miller, even
playing with his back to goal, being more annoying than a mosquito. From the
top as in the second half, or slightly lying on the left side frequently, he
delayed his position to participate in the development of the game. Even
retreating the position of the rival marking, send an assist for Law scored the
second goal.
The team produces more and tried to defend
himself in the opposite field, but bad decisions and the rush in transitions do
we continue to suffer defensively. When Rangers do not have the ball, the
sense of vulnerability offered is evident, were Raith Rovers or Dumbarton.
There are vices that are not corrected in time, especially the fragility of
that erratic defensive system and it is also known that players go through
various stages of form and now there, insubstantial or irregular. In
recent matches, we did not play the anxious, harpic and hyperkinetic rhythm of
Mohsni, try to respect an order. We are not so excited when we had the ball at
his feet. I understand that are keepers who do not have the knowledge or
the practice of playing with their feet. Simonsen continues giving away the
balls. I will not go to the example of Neuer. Even Romero, goalkeeper of Argie
national team is terrible with feet. Louis Van Gaal says that signed for the AZ
Alkmaar, made Romero stay after training to practice with the feet. Although
Romero never improved lolz....I think it is good base to start.
Rangers unlocked the game with a goal to stop
ball. We have taken the corners as a sense of continuity in the game not
inconsiderable. For the many teams can be an interrupted play or well defended
by the rival, for Rangers is the condition of possibility of a difference on
the scoreboard. McLeod smack your lips every time goes way to the flag. After
all, was a convenient center that it is converted an ordeal for any defender.
That the goal came, the skipper jumped, again, higher than the rest. (1-0).
Lewis, modest and earthly, not glitzy, is not
seen suffering today, enjoys his positional play, moving in search of spaces,
even returns faster to cover his marking. The midfielder has the great virtue
of lacking of that hedonistic individualism so popular. The young is a
conqueror of the micro spaces, with a swing o passes well plaited, those that
seem bland but have a placebo effect on the opponent. It happens that no one
filter passes like him, and slowly, moves the team with his compass.
Law enjoys the freedom of action, even in the
border area. The English moved easily, both in their societies with McLeod as
the two attackers. Ungovernable for the archaic radar of rovers. Law was
accurate when breaking from behind. As much as try to modulate its football for
dominate other fates, has the fondness wait, create the space and exploit it.
There it is unstoppable. The play´s second goal required the intelligence of
Law to cross in between from the unsuspecting central defenders and receive a
pass from Miller, to come up alone against the keeper. Get in! (2-0). He
is now a player less fussy in volume but more select in the participations.
In football, when you attack, it is about
creating spaces, knowing occupy and use them effectively. With this variant,
the sides are free because opposites sides (in a regular back four) are going
to be forced to close to help their central defenders in the marking on the
forwards (and additional midfielders). Those spaces that are generated outside
can be occupied by the sides (something common) or interior midfielders. The
focal point of Rangers since the arrival of McCoist is its sides: always
willing to unbalance the contrary, they are snakes along the sides, almost
always, but sometimes leaving gaps for opponents. The protagonist granted to
Wallace or Foster caused imbalance by the long field and they have to travel
and because they force inordinate sacrifice to the interior and central
midfielder and also the defenders, very required in cover and corrections, very
vulnerable to open field, especially against more compact teams, which was not
the case of Raith. Laced up, Black, beyond their specific failed passes and
some deliveries of balls to rival in hot zones, was again at the mercy of the
opponent counterattacks.
Raith remained orderly combined, a certain
speed but not of sufficient quality or passing line, too chained to the
puerility of mincey heid Scott. The rovers’ striker scored the
discount within inches of the line, after a succession of our advantages. A
goal that gave away the innocence of our defense. I repeat, we must improve our
defensive block. The adversaries reach too easily to our goal.
But the visitor´s goal was piss in the wind.
Rangers pushed Raith against your area, pause and diligence to find the end
gap. The visitor’s lines were broken when the ball circulating with geometry,
single storey and when exceeded the barriers.
Despite previous comments on social network, Miller
was physically fine. It has power and technical qualities intact, cover almost the
entire attacker´s manual. Hence, there is a genetic issue, that has or do not
have. In the former Vancouver striker, the genetic goalscoring rules. In the
second half, Kenny stepped over on the ground, actually alternated with Boyd,
this was the ideal space for their verticality, always confronted with advantage
the keeper, had several chances to score. And materialized one after receiving
in the ideal position to hold the ball on the side of the post (3-1). The goal
stunned to Raith and provided serenity to Rangers.
No one can deny, Boyd fight; improve his game,
individually and collectively. But nothing worse than a scorer obsessed with
the goal. His shot was from outside the area. The keeper found that the ball
was slipping gently of the hands, cursing himself; the ball went into the oven.
Range, many range after an odyssey typical of those mysteries of football.
Problem partially solved the metaphysical loneliness of Boyd, in the black hole
between his classic position "9" and the area where the rest of the
team is dedicated to bringing the ball (4-1).
Although Fraser keeps alive the right side,
Foster, when he does not precipitate, maintains possession in the opposite
field. Supports the midfield, but does not defend with the ball and fails. With
Raith unstructured and disseminated, with heebie-jeebies, Daly finished knocking
twice to decorate the win, after two accurate center of Foster (6-1).
