None in Ire vs SA last week either
huzzah! I think all the teams are working hard on tackling height and everything, so really it must come down to a bit of luck, get the timing just a little bit wrong and its bad news.
Cards will decide knock outs for sure, so discipline really important to work on for now too
Penalties too I think; defensive breakdown is so well rewarded that players might need to go against instinct and let the ball go if they're caught isolated. The mantra for any team needs to be no easy metres, make them earn it not be given it by letting the referee ping you.
