You forgot the most important detail.

Sancho looked up to assess the situation before taking the shot. If VVD had made any movement towards Sancho, Sancho would have passed to Bruno for an easy tap into an empty net.

Just because you are looking from a TV screen, you thought the space can be closed down by moving forward. The space between them was huge(about 7 yards).
Forget bruno..
Vvd was no where near bruno.
Sancho could have still passed d ball and he won't even get close to it.

VVD bleeped up simple and short.
He didn't even try to block the shot...

We have to act as a team and every individual has to give every day their best. That’s the demand for a manager and also for the team."

It wasn’t a duel and big defenders get dominated in every game and nobody questions their height.

Nobody said he was the best defender in the world..
. He would have off days normally.

Mitrovic will use him and shine yes..

But he would always keep on fighting..


If dey convert him to a midfielder I'm sure he can be our kante

In other words, nothing VVD could have done in that situation to prevent a goal - you just made my point.

If he stood his ground - goal
If he charges at Sancho - goal
If he charges at Bruno - goal

But he’s at fault? cheesy grin grin

He's at fault, because he did nothing.

Don’t mind them.

Maguire that is 6ft 5 inches gets dominated every other game but nobody questions his height.

I hate self-fulfilling prophesies that draw a conclusion first and then search for the evidence later.

Boateng was 6ft 3 when Drogba murdered him aerially in a CL final. If it was Lisandro, they would have blamed his height as the reason he couldn’t prevent the goal.

Quack football analysts rub me the wrong way.

E pain dem reach bone marrow. Dey expect us to lose. Most of them stake their life savings over Liverpool to win or draw against us.

Oooops! They are on the run right now, cox they collected some amount of money from loansharks, hoping to pay back with returns from their failed bets.... LMFAO

Absolutely!

Anything to protect the English assets in the PL. Milner was more at fault for that goal than VVD.

Bro stop arguing with this guys about that goal. It's either most of them are not footballers in real life or just sentimental towards arguments.
VVD had no fault there. Sancho's finishing was just good. Nothing to take away from it. Anybody blaming VVD never defend before.

Defending no be to just see person with ball then you rush am.

What was VVDs plan to stop Sancho besides hoping he baloons the ball?

Sancho controlled the ball and steadied to shoot, VVD stays on his spot with no attempt to block. This time Milner was not even in the picture, he rushed in a last ditch attempt to block and Sancho dummied him. Yet VVD did not leave his spot

After canceling Milner, Sancho steadied himself and picked his spot, VVD still did not move

I ask again what was VVDs plan to stop Sancho?

If he had covered up for Milner or positioned properly, Sancho won't have had enough space and time to pick a spot or pass.

He is not paid for doing nothing, He is paid for doing something. Better do something and fail than do nothing.

If the plan is to do nothing then he could as well stay at home

He stood his ground….. he was covering the space where Alisson fell down and his big frame forced Sancho to go the other way.

How much space can one defender cover? Should he have transformed into Incredible Hulk to cover the entire goal? cheesy grin

In the time he was standing his ground, Trent moved, Gomez moved, Milner moved but VVD stood his ground and supervising the goal

Tall strikers score all the time against tall defenders.

So why should it be different for Lisandro?

So the moment a tall striker scores against Lisandro, the height must have been the issue not that it’s a regular occurrence in football?

The way you people process logic is funny.

It is not.

Heading the ball is about positioning and timing.

How many times has Cahill dominated taller defenders? How tall is Tim Cahill?

VVD was the reason Sancho made Milner lay in the green pastures?

VVD was the reason Trent got caught in a passing triangle?

VVD was the reason Alisson dived without a shot taken?

VVD must be responsible for the global inflation.

And taller people do not have this timing and positioning? or its only for short people?

This is the list of players who have scored the most headed goals. Point how many of them are below 6ft. How come Messi and Aguero are not there? Is it that they dont have timing and positioning
