On Friday night, Revs II struggled in the attacking third––what else is new? The struggles emanated from poor decision-making, bad crosses, and misguided shots. These have been themes all season long.
Revs II players and staff aren’t blind to their attacking shortcomings. On multiple occasions, Revs II personnel have explicitly admitted the team’s attacking deficiencies; they know it’s an issue, but they haven’t quite cracked the code to solve it.
Tonight, Peay tried to rewire the attack. Michel operated incredibly high in the midfield, almost playing as a striker besides Edward Kizza at points. During some spells, it seemed as though Revs II were playing in a 4-2-4 formation, with Kizza and Michel playing centrally alongside Rivera and Rennicks on the wings.
