00:01:45when it is that special time of the year where everyone starts as equals
00:01:50far back in the distance, memories of last season, positions and points tallies on the last day
00:01:56that's all now irrelevant
00:01:57it is all about the ultimate prize that lies a long way ahead
00:02:02that buoyant feeling is here
00:02:04new star, fresh hope
00:02:05get the season off to a fly
00:02:07the fans are believing
00:02:15this must be amongst the favoured arenas of supporters all over the world
00:02:19it really does have a very special feel to it
00:02:24everybody waiting to get the season underway
00:02:27everybody equal in the start line
00:02:29yes Peter, and I believe that year on year the game is going from strength to strength
00:02:35it's impossible for that not to happen because of the increasing wealth
00:02:40that attracts the best talent and management and of course greater expectation
00:02:44the boundaries have to continue being stretched until the limit
00:02:48supporters have an insatiable appetite to want more excitement and entertainment
00:02:53so let the show begin
00:02:58so off we go then
00:03:05chance
00:03:07shoots
00:03:11the keeper's gone ever so well
00:03:13well as test go Peter, the keeper has just received an A plus grade
00:03:18swung over
00:03:22well it was certainly an acrobatic effort
00:03:25it was probably the best option for him but they're never easy to pull off
00:03:42towering header
00:03:44he should have done better and he knows it
00:03:46yeah he may have snatched it down a bit even though it was quite close
00:03:50you know it was pretty close
00:03:50no one's going to go
00:03:51yeah
00:04:04yeah
00:04:05yeah
00:04:07yeah
00:04:08yeah
00:04:08yeah
00:04:09yeah
00:04:22I'm going to go down too well with his team mates.
00:04:31That's a foul.
00:04:32Three kicks being given.
00:04:48Gorgeous control there.
00:04:51Very well to intervene.
00:04:57A change to the score.
00:04:590-0 it remains.
00:05:05Forward it goes.
00:05:20Really good feet.
00:05:22Time to deliver.
00:05:25It's a quarter.
00:05:27Yeah.
00:05:33Played it short.
00:05:37The chances keep on coming.
00:05:39They're awarded another corner.
00:05:48Nice to get it away.
00:05:52And he's on the side.
00:05:56Big swan in.
00:05:58Massively.
00:06:00That's a lovely try.
00:06:02But not to me.
00:06:03It was such a clever idea to lift it into his path.
00:06:08That's a swing at it.
00:06:10He's delivered all right.
00:06:12With half time at hand.
00:06:15Perfect timing.
00:06:20And as soon as they made that error in midfield.
00:06:23They didn't have time to react before the ball hit the net.
00:06:25Very much a lesson learned.
00:06:37It's a bit of time.
00:06:53That's it.
00:06:54That's it.
00:06:55It's the whistle for half time.
00:06:56So there you have it, a close sport, half of football, but one that still had its moments, but ultimately
00:07:02produced just one goal.
00:07:03A more than decent game up to now.
00:07:06Not the most convincing of displays. They could certainly do much better than this.
00:07:10They'll want to keep things simple, build up their confidence, and not rush into mistakes.
00:07:22We're underway again.
00:07:25Bremio don't need to press the panic button just yet.
00:07:28They may have to tweak their setup first if they don't grab an early goal in this second half.
00:07:33They can't hold back, though.
00:07:40Bremio, a lot of touches here, but they're not making much progress.
00:07:56They just whacks it away.
00:08:05And it's been taken short.
00:08:09Tries to stroke it through, a reprieve, albeit perhaps momentary.
00:08:18Well, no doubt someone is being given special treatment here.
00:08:21Yeah, and they've got to be careful, Peter, that they don't allow their attempt to snuck out the threat now
00:08:26to turn into a discipline.
00:08:33So, Jim, what are you thinking?
00:08:35Well, there'll be no accusations of a lack of effort.
00:08:38They're giving as good as they get when it comes to chances.
00:08:46Looking for space out wide.
00:08:50Oh, it's opened up nicely for him.
00:08:52Coach for goal.
00:08:54He scores!
00:08:58A two-goal lead, and they're firmly in control.
00:09:04Yeah, looking back at that.
00:09:06That's how you play on the counter.
00:09:08Quick and decisive and ruthless with the finish.
00:09:11I thought it was a stunning, stunning breakaway.
00:09:32Well, for me, this was the obvious substitution.
00:09:36He'd become just a little jaded, and as a result of that, he was most likely to make a mistake.
00:09:41I think sometimes when the body becomes tired, the brain goes with it.
00:09:44And I think that's happened in this case.
00:09:46So that's two now without reply.
00:09:49The turning of the screw comes to mind, Peter.
00:09:52They've got them where they want them.
00:10:04Very little climb left in this opening fixture, as though it's going to end this way.
00:10:12Play for a throw.
00:10:14Well, a stamina was called into question then, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with his heart and the efforts he
00:10:19put in.
00:10:20He was very willing, though, not quite able.
00:10:43Looking for a decent ball in.
00:10:50And there goes the final whistle.
00:10:53Well, it has been a hugely disappointing start here, and the critics will be sharpening their knives.
00:10:58The boss has some questions to answer.
00:11:00Your reflections then, Jim.
00:11:02Look, every manager wants to get off to a winning start and at least set a positive vibe for what's
00:11:07to follow.
00:11:08Instead, he's now got to ensure that all his players keep their chins up and go and try and win
00:11:14the next one.
00:11:16So thank you very much, Jim, for joining me.
00:11:18That brings us to the end of our coverage.
00:11:20So from us both, a very good evening.
00:12:27Well, it is that special time of the year where everyone starts as equals.
00:12:31Well, back in the distance, memories of last season, positions and points tallies on the last day.
00:12:37That's all now irrelevant.
00:12:39It is all about the ultimate prize that lies a long way ahead.
00:12:44That buoyant feeling is here.
00:12:45New start, fresh hope.
00:12:47Get the season off to a fly.
00:12:49The fans are believing.
00:12:56This place is simply a monument to the game.
00:13:00So much prestige, so much pride, so much passion that ever football is played here.
00:13:07Everybody waiting to get the season underway.
00:13:10Everybody equal on the start line.
00:13:13Well, with star names and new faces, both on the pitch and on the bench, let's hope for a more
00:13:19attractive, competitive and unpredictable league.
00:13:23A better product for all to see.
00:13:25Although I'm beginning to think that we're asking for the impossible.
00:13:29We'll get lots to analyse and debate come what may as ever.
00:13:33And this ought to get us off to a busy start.
00:13:35I've been waiting for this quite a while and I know you have too, Peter.
00:13:38So, here we go.
00:13:41Just joining us.
00:13:43We are already on the way.
00:13:52Teams it out wide.
00:13:58Chance to break.
00:14:01River to the left.
00:14:04And Tonelli needed to come up with a better ball.
00:14:07Oh, that just required a bit more oomph to reach its target.
00:14:14Out to the left it goes.
00:14:19Really good feet.
00:14:23Just brushed off the ball there.
00:14:25It's cut loose.
00:14:28Looks to clip it forward.
00:14:31Big chance corner.
00:14:41Played it short.
00:14:46Tries lifting it over.
00:14:48Has a swing at it.
00:14:50It's in.
00:14:56Oh, a goal of real quality.
00:14:58He made it look ridiculously easy.
00:15:01Well, most of those go high and wide because of their difficulty.
00:15:04He made it look like he does it every day.
00:15:08Okay.
00:15:08I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going
00:15:23to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go
00:15:23high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and
00:15:24I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going
00:15:24to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go
00:15:24high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and
00:15:24I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going
00:15:27to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go high and I'm going to go.
00:15:39A one-nil lead established.
00:15:42Yeah, this is also a chance to see what happens
00:15:44to their level of concentration from here.
00:15:48And to Nelly.
00:15:50They thought we needed to be better there.
00:15:51That's a wasted chance.
00:15:56Pays it out to the flank.
00:15:59Keeps everyone guessing.
00:16:08Gets good distance on it.
00:16:13And they can break here.
00:16:27Pops it in gently.
00:16:29Can he score?
00:16:31That is wayward.
00:17:01And back to base.
00:17:03And back to base.
00:17:08Forward it goes.
00:17:14Goals loose.
00:17:15Who's getting there?
00:17:18Half-time whistle goes.
00:17:20There we are.
00:17:20Off they go for half-time.
00:17:22The breakthrough did indeed come in the first half.
00:17:25But there has only been that one goal.
00:17:27It is very, very tight.
00:17:30Not the most convincing of displays.
00:17:32They can certainly do much better than this.
00:17:34They'll want to keep things simple.
00:17:35Build up their confidence.
00:17:37And not rush into mistakes.
00:17:39And gets things going for the second half.
00:17:43Empoli don't need to press the panic button just yet.
00:17:47They may have to tweak their set up first.
00:17:49If they don't grab an early goal in this second half.
00:17:52They can't hold back though.
00:17:53all the way pros.
00:18:08a big put it over it.
00:18:20It's a big win.
00:18:21It's a big win.
00:18:22it's a big win.
00:18:23Back of the net.
00:18:29Pretty simple finish in the end.
00:18:31What do you think, Jim?
00:18:32Well, he made it obvious as to where the pass should be played, Peter.
00:18:35And it made the finish look that bit easier.
00:19:12That has certainly made things interesting.
00:19:14Well, they're back on level terms, so the guessing game goes on.
00:19:18As to what will happen from here, I've no idea.
00:19:22Fires it in low.
00:19:25And that has been clubbed away.
00:19:34Aimed low and direct.
00:19:38And the counter is on.
00:19:42Back to the keeper.
00:19:48Plays it out to the wing.
00:20:06We have got changes here from both sides, in fact.
00:20:10So we have a double substitution going on here.
00:20:14And he's there to hoof it away.
00:20:25He's got away.
00:20:27In he flies.
00:20:30Sticks it away.
00:20:33And again they hit the front.
00:20:40Oh, super header, wonderfully acrobatic.
00:20:43Oh, strikers love a diving header.
00:20:45And he timed that to perfection.
00:20:48When the manager called on him, he was only too happy to repay that fate.
00:20:53Well, the instruction from the manager would have been, go on and make yourself a nuisance and see if you
00:20:57can snatch a goal.
00:20:58Mission accomplished.
00:21:19Well, this is what we've been waiting for.
00:21:22Oh, it was a long time coming, but I think it's fully merited.
00:21:25They've applied themselves extremely well.
00:21:28Whistle's gone.
00:21:29That's a foul.
00:21:30Back to the keeper.
00:21:31And go again.
00:21:33Gets it upfield.
00:21:34Done very well to intervene.
00:21:38Dashing forward at pace.
00:21:40He's off on a marauding run.
00:21:43Well, it remains to be seen whether they can come up with that little bit of class to rescue the
00:21:47situation.
00:21:48It needs to be any time now, really.
00:21:50The final whistle.
00:21:52They have slumped to defeat in the opener.
00:21:55You've got the start they've craved.
00:21:57What do you take away from it all, Jim?
00:21:59Look, every manager wants to get off to a winning start and at least set a positive vibe for what's
00:22:04to follow.
00:22:05Instead, he's now got to ensure that all his players keep their chins up and go and try and win
00:22:10the next one.
00:22:12So that's it from us.
00:22:14Many thanks go to Jim Beglin.
00:22:15And goodbye from us.
00:22:52you
00:23:27well it is that special time of the year where everyone starts as equals

00:24:17it's impossible for that not to happen because of the increasing wealth

00:25:35he's left the road
00:25:35I'm not sure he had to go at that for his time
00:25:37but at least it showed some good confidence
00:26:06and he's cut it out
00:26:24look he just has to read the situation
00:26:27quicker if he hopes to conquer that
00:26:47it's got through
00:27:14great reactions in front of goal he just
00:27:46saw what was on
00:28:02deadlock broken it's one bill still a
00:28:05fragile lead though they can't afford to
00:28:07sit on this
00:28:16that's a cracking strike and it may have stung the palms of the keeper

00:33:11are a new team like we got a new new team
00:33:25Well, it is that special time of the year where everyone starts as equals.
00:33:30Far back in the distance, memories of last season, positions and points tallies on the last day.
00:33:36That's all now irrelevant.
00:33:37It is all about the ultimate prize that lies a long way ahead.
00:33:42That buoyant feeling is here.
00:33:43New start, fresh hope.
00:33:45Get the season off to a flyer.
00:33:47The fans are believing.
00:33:54One dance and you know where we are.
00:33:57It is one of the most recognisable arenas for the beautiful game in the world.
00:34:03And boy, does it add to the occasion.
00:34:06So everybody starts on nothing.
00:34:09Last season is in the past.
00:34:11We are all equals.
00:34:13Yes, Peter.
00:34:14And I believe that year on year the game is going from strength to strength.
00:34:19It's impossible for that not to happen because of the increasing wealth.
00:34:23That attracts the best talent and management and, of course, greater expectation.
00:34:28The boundaries have to continue being stretched and to the limit.
00:34:32Supporters have an insatiable appetite to want more excitement and entertainment.
00:34:36So let the show begin.
00:34:39We have already started here.
00:34:43We have already started here.
00:34:44That's it out.
00:34:45Oh, gosh.
00:34:47It's nice to get it forward quickly.
00:34:54He's had a short.
00:34:57Goal!
00:34:59The breakthrough strike.
00:35:06Perfect placement.
00:35:07The one place the keeper couldn't reach.
00:35:10Now that's what I call finishing.
00:35:12Right in the corner.
00:35:13He knew instinctively who was where and didn't need to waste any time weighing things up.
00:35:18That's a cracking goal.
00:35:39So we have our breakthrough.
00:35:41Yeah, this is also a chance to see what happens to their level of concentration from here.
00:35:47That always looked inevitable.
00:35:49And the defense dealt with that really well.
00:35:52Hamash.
00:35:55Great strength.
00:35:56Too strong for his opponent.
00:35:57Played out to the right.
00:36:08Aimed low and direct.
00:36:19Aimed low and fast.
00:36:31Aimed low and low.
00:36:35He doesn't come on down.visually
00:36:36jump in.
00:36:40looking for space out wide
00:36:42he's left his back
00:36:44and the finish
00:36:46he scores
00:36:49hot knife through butter
00:36:51they have done it again
00:36:54lovely goal
00:36:56perfect poise to set himself for the strike
00:37:19so that's two now without reply
00:37:21well at one nil this contest was still nicely poised
00:37:25but now that it's gone to two
00:37:27mindsets are affected a lot more
00:37:29winning belief one way and that losing feeling the other
00:37:34out wide to the right

00:37:57thank you
00:38:44That is terrific skill.
00:38:49And he just whacks it away.
00:38:52The first 45 minutes are up.
00:38:55Some first half thoughts.
00:38:56Well, it's looking pretty straightforward, Peter.
00:38:58They've got themselves into a very good position.
00:39:01So why dither from here when they can repeat their first half success with another show of strength?
00:39:16This one goes.
00:39:17And we start the second half.
00:39:20Well, this half might require them to produce a plan A, B and C.
00:39:24Leveling the score is easier said than done.
00:39:27But that would be the target.
00:39:29Get back on terms and then use that momentum to go again.
00:39:38Go on.
00:39:39Go through, man.
00:39:41Go through.
00:39:52Go through.
00:39:53Go through.
00:40:03This defense is weary about opposition pace.
00:40:06They're just not getting too tight.
00:40:08Yeah, they know that.
00:40:09He's through.
00:40:10It's one-on-one.
00:40:11He's good for it.
00:40:13They are rampant.
00:40:18And the lead is extended still further.
00:40:23Well, none of us were exactly sure how that was going to end up then,
00:40:27but I'm delighted to see such a happy ending after such a splendid dribbling run.
00:40:31I mean, he really did fill that defense into wondering what he was going to do next.
00:40:37He's made it two, and no doubt he's hungry for more.
00:41:03Three without reply.
00:41:05This is becoming a stroll.
00:41:16He's fired it in low.
00:41:34All right, looks a foul.
00:41:36Referee's given it.
00:41:55He's got rid of that.
00:42:04Forward it goes.
00:42:08Well-weighted.
00:42:09And he's onside.
00:42:12Surely.
00:42:15It's a fabulous position.
00:42:17Shake the chute.
00:42:20Just thinking about the goalkeeper again.
00:42:23He really had to be at his best, didn't he?
00:42:31It's got through.
00:42:34Going through.
00:42:35Striding forward.
00:42:37Facing goal.
00:42:39Get that clear.
00:42:42Has gone out.
00:42:44Missed some activity down on the touchline.
00:42:47There's going to be a change.
00:42:49Well, the stamina was called into question then,
00:42:51but there's absolutely nothing wrong with his heart and the effort he did in.
00:42:54He was very willing, though.
00:42:56Not quite able.
00:42:58And it's hoisted clear.
00:43:01And that is it.
00:43:03And that is it.
00:43:03The referee has seen enough.
00:43:05They have slumped to defeat in the opener.
00:43:07Anything but the start they craved.
00:43:10Any reflections on what you've seen, Jim?
00:43:11Look, every manager wants to get off to a winning start
00:43:14and at least set a positive vibe for what's to follow.
00:43:18Instead, he's now got to ensure that all his players keep their chins up
00:43:22and go and try and win the next one.
00:43:25And with that, it's time for me to thank Jim Beglin
00:43:27and to wish you a very good evening.
00:44:54Well, it is that special time of the year where everyone starts as equals.
00:44:59Far back in the distance, memories of last season, positions and points tallies on the last day.
00:45:05That's all now irrelevant.
00:45:06It is all about the ultimate prize that lies a long way ahead.
00:45:11That buoyant feeling is here.
00:45:13New start, fresh hope.
00:45:15Get the season off to a flyer.
00:45:16The fans are believing.
00:45:24One glance and you know where we are.
00:45:26It is one of the most recognisable arenas for the beautiful game in the world.
00:45:32And boy, does it add to the occasion.
00:45:35Everybody waiting to get the season underway.
00:45:38Everybody equal on the start line.
00:45:41Well, with star names and new faces both on the pitch and on the bench,
00:45:46let's hope for a more attractive, competitive and unpredictable league.
00:45:51I think a better product for all to see, although I'm beginning to think that we're asking for the impossible.
00:45:57We'll get lots to analyse and debate come what may as ever.
00:46:01And this ought to get us off to a busy start.
00:46:03I've been waiting for this quite a while and I know you have too, Peter.
00:46:06So, here we go.
00:46:09We have already started here.
00:46:15There's a throw.
00:46:29There's a throw.
00:46:29There's a throw.
00:46:42That is as far as they're going to go.
00:46:53Dashing forward at pace.
00:46:58He's through.
00:47:00He's got away.
00:47:04Great leap.
00:47:06Goal.
00:47:07Zenit St. Petersburg.
00:47:10First block drawn.
00:47:16A great delivery and a finish to match.
00:47:20Well, as contact goes, that was tremendous.
00:47:22And it helped him to direct it exactly where he wanted him to that net.
00:47:25I think when it comes to the aerial department, this fella is definitely no slouch.
00:47:47He said it's in Petersburg.
00:47:50Take the lead.
00:47:51yeah this is also a chance to see what happens to their level of concentration from here
00:47:58great run on the overlap here
00:48:10he's left his man
00:48:15going through
00:48:34and that's been leave it clear well they could break here
00:48:51very well to get to that oh that's a sparkling save absolutely sparkling his reflexes were ultra sharp
00:49:26and it's
00:49:28they have pulled themselves right back into it
00:49:36and that is about as cool as they can
00:49:38he picked his spot expertly now that's what i call finishing right in the corner he knew instinctively
00:50:07and that is
00:50:10it's added a whole new complexion to the game well look peter who knows what's about to happen from
00:50:16here uh i doubt this will be the final score though
00:50:21the whistle goes for half time
00:50:29the first half compared with your expectation with this match promise goals and it certainly
00:50:34hasn't let us down it's been really really entertaining it's a really interesting game
00:51:08when they head in at half time
00:51:09so
00:51:10and
00:51:25so
00:51:46I just think it's a conservative move to deny runners the opportunity of going beyond
00:51:52that rear guard.
00:52:00It's made sure that that won't get through out wide to the right, played out to the right.
00:52:22Big chance here, shakes the chutes, and he's there to make a great save.
00:52:29The keeper really dug out his defence then, a magnificent effort.
00:52:58He's had a shot.
00:53:01Potential goal of this season, contender, if only.
00:53:05He almost benefited from some real generosity.
00:53:08No wonder the keeper's going nuts.
00:53:29We have got changes here from both sides, in fact.
00:53:38Knocks it away.
00:53:46This is in a low one, and it's hoisted clear.
00:53:52Not stitch defending, but that'll do.
00:53:55Concentration levels are very good, and so is the commitment.
00:53:59This game could yet yield a winner.
00:54:10Cochrane over to the left.
00:54:20Keeper goes long.
00:54:24It's got through to him.
00:54:28There is the final whistle.
00:54:30It's a so-so start.
00:54:33Hope to have too many conclusions from that.
00:54:35Early days.
00:54:36Your reflections then, Jim.
00:54:38Of course, winning starts are clearly more preferable,
00:54:41but both sides can take some satisfaction from avoiding defeat
00:54:44and maybe go one step further next time.
00:54:49We've reached the end of our coverage for today.
00:54:51Many thanks to Jim Beglin alongside...
00:55:08...
00:55:12...
00:55:20...
00:55:21...
00:55:21...
00:55:22...
00:55:22...
00:55:33...
00:55:44It is all about the ultimate prize that lies a long way ahead.
00:55:50That buoyant feeling is here.
00:55:52New start, fresh hope, yet the season off to a flyer.
00:55:56The fans are believing.
00:56:03This is one of the great amphitheatres of the game.
00:56:06You are welcome to it and indeed to one of the grandest pictures.
00:56:12So everybody starts on nothing.
00:56:15Last season is in the past.
00:56:17We are all equals.
00:56:19Well, with star names and new faces both on the pitch and on the bench,
00:56:24let's hope for a more attractive, competitive and unpredictable league.
00:56:29A better product for all to see.
00:56:31Although I'm beginning to think that we're asking for the impossible,
00:56:34we'll get lots to analyse and debate come what may as ever.
00:56:39And this ought to get us off to a busy start.
00:56:42I've been waiting for this quite a while and I know you have too, Peter.
00:56:45So here we go.
00:56:48And if you did just miss it, we are up and running already.
00:57:05And he's there to goof it away.
00:57:08They've got it back as soon as they gave it away.
00:57:13They've got it back as soon as they gave it away.
00:57:14Oh, good interception.
00:57:24And the waiting pass.
00:57:27Knocks it away.
00:57:36Dives it in.
00:57:39That was asking just too much of him.
00:57:51That had to be more accurate.
00:57:57Now surely.
00:57:59He's in out of harm's way.
00:58:03It's a loose ball.
00:58:06The defence got the better of him this time, but I'm sure he'll go again.
00:58:18Oh, we don't even need a look at the stats, do we, Peter?
00:58:21Zero attempts, zero goals and excitement.
00:58:25Forget it.
00:58:32And that's been leave it clear.
00:58:35Well, he acknowledges that he should have come up with something better there.
00:58:38The movement was good, but the pass lacked authority.
00:58:41A cause of mild frustration.
00:58:55Gets it upfield.
00:59:18Well, they look lost for ideas and lacking in talent, which all contributes to a chronic case of impotence.
00:59:26Interesting half.
00:59:28Just missing goals.
00:59:29So don't be surprised if the second half brings a change to the scoreline at the break.
00:59:33Well, we're already into the second period.
00:59:39Amanuchi can be very glad that half-time came when it did.
00:59:42Poor possession and very little firepower means they need shoots!
00:59:46Really well taken goal!
00:59:49The breakthrough arrives at last!
00:59:55Really well taken goal!
01:00:06The breakthrough arrives at last!
01:00:11Problems of last!
01:00:19Also ready to go!
01:00:19This one of the cars came when they do.еровive
01:00:28is JOE
01:00:43so we have our breakthrough
01:00:45oh half time has been a blessing for this team
01:00:48you know what a great start to the second half
01:01:09face to face with the big chance
01:01:13saved only by poor finishing
01:01:15yeah they got away with it but that was a defensive letdown
01:01:19to see him march through like that
01:01:28sides then taking this chance to turn to their benches
01:01:45that's what has to be done now
01:01:47no question about it
01:01:48this isn't the time to talk about risks now jim is it
01:01:51they just have to hurl everything at it
01:01:53and hope for a break
01:01:54well there's no two ways about it
01:01:56this is what they have to do
01:02:10and it's got through
01:02:12just brushed off the ball there
01:02:15keep calm and carry on
01:02:17that's the job in a nutshell
01:02:19I think you have to admire his willingness to keep plugging away
01:02:26but the manager has done him a big favour
01:02:28I think by taking him off
01:02:30he was looking very very leggy
01:02:40he's caught in there it's a free kick
01:02:56there's a real appetite from them to finally put this game to bed
01:03:00but will they
01:03:06oh he's in
01:03:07going for goal
01:03:09it's in
01:03:10tying minutes
01:03:12and we're all square again
01:03:19given such an open invitation
01:03:21he was always going to shoot
01:03:23I just think it's clever positioning from clever movement
01:03:26and when all of that is synchronized with the right path
01:03:28that's what happens
01:03:31all right let's get inspired substitution
01:03:33terrific move by the boss
01:03:35that's how you make an impact as a soul
01:03:37when most are tiring you can impose a freshness and energy to best effect
01:03:41what an introduction
01:04:00so all square with almost no time remaining
01:04:13well intercepted
01:04:15really alerts the danger
01:04:17and the referee brings it to a close
01:04:20it's a so-so start
01:04:22don't draw too many conclusions from that
01:04:25early days
01:04:26don't you sum up what we've witnessed Jim
01:04:28of course winning starts are clearly more preferable
01:04:32but both sides can take some satisfaction from avoiding defeat
01:04:35and maybe go one step further next time
01:04:39well thanks for your company Jim
01:04:41and a very good day to you
01:05:08thank you
01:05:12you
