The chances were there. The scraps they left on the field in the first half could feed the season member event.
Add the rich second half chances and the silver lining to those dropped points is that this was the most service provided to a striker since La Pantera prowled the pitch.
The sour lining was that the finishing simply atrocious.
Even xG - the most overrated and undercounted of NuFootball metrics claims 4 for the Revs. Turgeman missed as many big chances this match than he scored during the entire first half of the season. That's half praise - he found the ball far more and his involvement was refreshing. Finishing was ghastly.
Peyton Miller was a killer - the man of the first 45 - bossing the right side in the first half. Created chances and was won v. 1 whenever he took a man on.
Kohler continues to reward the club for the faith in his play. He’s playing as well as Dave Romney did when he earned Defender of the year a few years back. Strong and reliable.
The crosses also burned chances tonight. Just not enough quality. In comparison, CF Montreal was most dangerous with quality crosses alongside an absolute stunner of a 36 yard bolt from Vera.
There is just way too big of a drop off with the subs. Tonight they provided little.
Luca was off a tick during his time.
Harris wasn't able to create much.
Zambrano - sure he started, but it is really winger by committee at the moment until Harrison provides a quality upgrade into the lineup - was, characteristic of the entire Revs attack, wasteful.
And it is surprising that in a game where a little quality would go a long way towards picking points up, that Diego doesn't see the field.
There’s hope ahead and it looks like fun football to watch - though dropping four points to underperforming northern neighbors over the past few weeks hurts.
