At least it's with a side that's clearly our second-string. Would have been a lot worse if there had been a few more senior squad players in the team...

In fact, even for a second string side, this will be very embarrassing. We have been caught unawares by the Afghans. Just sum up the FC experiences, and it is already getting humiliating. Was this a case of complacency?

If so, we're far from being the first side to suffer that against Afghanistan...
