Philippines managed to beat Germany in a very close match and a crucial one for us. As you all can see I decided to drop a crunch because we have next week to recover some enth before Egypt and basically doing so we can jump to the next round with at least one win. Clearly after beating Egypt which is not as easy as in the past seasons because they are really tough.
I expected a tie from Germany because they have to deal with Chile and Peru in the next weeks and considering our terrible shape on our big men they were well above our standards.
Ibarreta ylanan tonido and ganancial all respectable and three of those are really great players for us. They're coming back to good shape, minutes are improving for ibarreta and ganancial so I hope to have them at their max sooner than later.
I keep stressing on minutes because without shape we can go nowhere. We are weaker than all the others except Egypt. So we need our squad to perform at its max 😊
As for the match, I decided to go for ptb to avoid our predictability on external offenses, also because that allowed me to put in the lineup all around players to take advantage of the different effort.
No predictions for me because Germany is gifted on both outside and inside and I did prefer to go relatively safe.
Our group is very complicated, but we are right on our target. We are making a surprising road considering other salaries and dmi, so great job by everyone 👍🏻
