Let me know if there are any mistakes, or if there’s something you want me to change
Would gladly trade Las Palmas making one of their long shots for Rakitic to have missed his! Very similar match.
Hard-fought win. The game was a tale of 2 halves. We did well in the first half and then Las Palmas turned up during the 2nd.
Vieites secured us the 3 points today, especially denying Coco a banger goal. MOTM imo.
