Capello still hopeful after England’s unexpected performance against Montenegro
The Italian boss of English national football team Fabio Capello is still confident and positive about England team’s performance after a disappointing draw against Montenegro in a very recent match.
In a match of England against Montenegro, the English team failed to score a single goal but England’s manager Fabio Capello is still happy with the way his team has performed. In the match at Wembley, the English team tried hard and attacked the rivals
pretty well but the defence of Montenegro seemed pretty strong, and therefore, all of the English team’s efforts were gone in vain and the match resulted in a draw.
Now the English team is still standing at the second spot in the standings table of Group G. Montenegro is topping the list and has three points more than the England. After the match at Wembley the 63-year-old Italian coach Fabio Capello expressed his thoughts
pretty bluntly and told the media that it was just one match and we are hoping to snatch some better results in the upcoming matches. He added that he is a fighter and will not bow out at all.
The Italian praised the game of English team and said that England is a strong and dedicated team. The goalkeeper of Montenegro, Mladen Bozovic displayed his brilliant abilities and stopped some certain goals. Capello admired Bozovic and said that Montenegro’s
goalkeeper played really well and saved some certain goals.
It is to be noticed that Mladen Bozovic stopped two attempts of Wayne Rooney and showed his exceptional class and talent.
According to some critics the performance by the English team was not outstanding as it failed to trouble the opponent team in a bigger way. The frontline dynamic duo of English team, Rooney and Peter Crouch seemed pretty ineffective throughout the game
and ace performers, Adam Johnson and Ashley Young also seemed a little out of touch.
The match got into a very interesting stage when the striker from Montenegro Milan Jovanovic attacked on the English goal but his dipping shot landed back off the crossbar. Later Capello praised the opponent side and said that little countries have some
brilliant players and we should admire their skills. Montenegro has won three games and their confidence level is no doubt very high these days. The 63-year-old added that the Montenegro team is a very talented team, and they play with good tactics and approach.
When Fabio was asked about his team’s performance, the Italian said that his team played well as compared to the previous match. He added by saying that in the match against Algeria the English team didn’t create vital chances of scoring goals but in the
match at Wembley the team displayed a better game and created some certain chances of scoring goals, which is no doubt a sign of the team’s good strategy and teamwork.
When the new English skipper Rio Ferdinand was asked about his views, the veteran defender expressed himself by saying that overall it was a good teamwork by the English team and Mladen Bozovic saved two certain goals. The 31-year-old ace footballer added
that our plan was very simple, and it was to avoid defeat and we did our job pretty well.
The coach of Montenegro team, Kranjcar expressed his views very happily and told the media that the team has displayed a very brilliant effort and it is still going clean sheet which is no doubt a proof of its strong strategy. He added that he is very satisfied
with the way his team has performed and so far their plan is to avoid defeat and he is happy that everything is going according to the plan.
