Help-Re the Cardiff game.

by Victor Meldrew » 21 Aug 2019 10:11

I would very much appreciate if somebody who recorded Sunday's game or who has access to any definitive stats (not the BBC website as they are not always right) to confirm without doubt how many corners we had in the first half.
IIRC the first one didn't happen until around the 35 th minute and then we had another straight away.
The issue is whether we had another before half-time.

Incidentally we had either 4 or 5 in the whole match which is not so much for us but maybe it was because we were playing much more interchange of passes than normal.

Whatever the outcome I will donate £20 to NSPCC.
Thanks

The club twitter feed of the match might be quite good source of information?

Sky Sports football app might be a good source.

If not the stats tab, then the commentary tab would certainly mention how many corners we had, you'd just need to manually count them.

From memory they were all poor corners.
We rarely score from them.
There must be someone in the starting team who can take a half decent corner ?

Pity you can't have rolling specialist subs - could bring on Charlie Adam for the corners.

Seem to remember Obita was a decent enough corner taker. But it feels like centuries since I've seen him play, so maybe not.

According to WhoScored.com - we had 4 corners in all. 2 in the first half and 2 in the second. Corners in the 36th and 37th minutes.

We had 4 corners total. All taken by Swift. 2 were completed to a Reading player (including the short corner) and 2 were cleared by Cardiff players. I believe the 1 long corner that was met by a Resding player was Morrison.

Thanks for the replies-I must have willed the 3rd one in the first half-my bet had been Reading to score 1+ goals and 5+ corners. :cry:

Score 1+ goals from corners or just in general?

Your bookie must have a rule for "source of stats"


eg


BBC

No, the odds were 7/5 for us to get 1 or more goals plus 5 or more corners.
I thought it was good value as we do often get a number of corners.

Decent chance I'd say. Wouldn't scrap the bet just yet.
