Paddy Madden is the nominated penalty taker when on the pitch. That is/was plan A.
No plan B but Barry took the penalty yesterday as he took the last one and scored. However, as Barry was not actually the nominated taker, Tanto took over following some on field debate.
As Chally alludes to, the management team put an inordinate amount of effort into the pre-match preparation but penalties had been largely overlooked. It's not just the missed opportunity of a goal, it's the momentum shift that potentially goes with it.
We were very fortunate yesterday that no real harm was done.
The older I get the better I was.
