[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I watched the first half of this.  Probably 4-1??
SYC is such a frustrating team to watch.  I've seen them several times over the past three years.  They have excellent individual players.  I'm sure some of that is due to coaching and some is definitely due to recruiting.  They are a physically imposing team.  In this case, they are bigger and faster than Achilles at almost every position.  But they don't play well together.  Their goals aren't created by coordinated play.  They rely heavily on consistently strong man marking, deep goal kicks, winning second balls, corners and crosses.  How many times in that video did I hear "put it in the box" or "second ball."  They shoot everything near the box and if they have it wide in the midfield either fire a deep diagonal pass or carry it down the line for a cross.  This is all fine, and effective, if you're physically superior.  But only if you're physically superior.  [/quote]

Technically Superior beats Physically Superior. 
Technical + IQ Superiority beats just Physical.
Technical + Game Intelligence beats just Physical.
(See: Philly Union for example or old Barcelona)

If the Just Physical beats and dominates you, then you're not doing what you should with and without the ball, especially as a team.[/quote]

'Technically Superior beats Physically Superior.'
This first line makes sense but does it also apply at u14? I'm not confident in that.  The second and third line are hard to have at that age. [/quote]
