Martin Jol was happy that the team opened the Vodacom Challenge with a win over Kaizer Chiefs in Durban on Saturday afternoon. Goals from Robbie Keane and Dimitar Berbatov either side of a Shaun Bartlett header secured the victory, although Martin said it is now a case of attempting to regain good habits over the pre-season period. "The thing is, in this sort of tournament, you have to win and want to win," reasoned the manager. "In the first half we did well and denied them space, the only thing is that we have to get our good habits back. With them playing a high back four every ball is dangerous, but we got caught offside a number of times. "We should have punished them but didn't really do that and we should have played more down the flanks and changed play. Their midfield was pretty crowded so there was no space, but I thought it was a pretty good work out. "In the second half I tried it with Robbie and the two strikers, which worked for us and Darren made a great run from a fine ball from Phil Ifil, who was playing out of position. It was a good assist, Darren used the space and we scored a good goal through Dimitar. "It was a great occasion, it is my first time here and the supporters created a superb atmosphere which made it a very good experience for the young players" added Martin, who reported that Younes Kaboul was forced off in the opening minutes after suffering a broken front tooth. "Bartlett lifted his leg and Younes had to come off to get his tooth fixed, but luckily enough we have got top players and Anthony Gardner did very well." ============================================================================= 取得第一场比赛的胜利 Jol非常高兴 Jol说 "这种短期的锦标赛我们必须赢 也希望赢" "上半我们做的很好 阻断了他们的空间 但他们的高球很危险" "我们应该要痛宰他们的 但是他们中盘投入了很多人 使我们无法顺利作业" "下半我嚐试放Robbie加双中锋的组合 达人巧妙的跑位做球给BB 帮助我们拿下第二球" "第一次来到这边我很高兴 这边的气氛非常棒 对小球员是个很棒的经验" "Bartlett把Kaboul的牙齿打伤了 但是好在於Gardner也是个非常优秀的球员" 打伤Kaboul又进球的Bartlett认为达人绝对可以成为最佳前锋 -- 达人已经深得我心了 XD 才刚加入就跟Keano,BB有不错的默契 下一场的阵容应该会有所调整 -- To Dare is to do! --
