Very unusual game where to take your example 25 shots to 8 is not reflected in the corner count. But in close games I think corners more accurate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3290088887405022587.post-175584886666857752020-03-18T12:18:59.078+11:002020-03-18T12:18:59.078+11:009.09

What if the defending team puts ball out for <br />corners due to mis kick or just unable to clear up the ground or throw in?<br />You may argue that shots is subjective but if the count is 25 to 5<br />how many do you think would be shots from 50m or unlikely areas ?<br />Even if you presumed 30 % are from unrealistic areas that is still 18 shots to 5.

Much more reflective on the game it self. 8 corners to 1 who do you think had the better of the play and more chances?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
