/narrative.
Do not disagree with that. I think the attack is kind of inexperienced on an international level (except for Tadic), but they did fine. Above expectation I'd say. I think after the early goal they were like "**** this result takes us through, lets see it out". They should have put away 1 more at least as the Swiss were clearly rattled.
Anyways. This WC was a positive experience for the whole squad I'd think as they were touted to get destroyed by Brazil and pretty much easily seen off by Switzerland. Also glad that they decided to go for it when it was 1-1. Most teams sit back and take the draw then and there.
also I do not want to politard, but have to compliment the players and fans as well that they did not go ape**** after the albanian eagle stuff.
