It’s a joke that no where has the highlights up, I’ve checked the fa website, bbc fa cup page. DRFC. Not seen a tv show like MOTD.

I have seen Billy’s goal via a clip on Twitter but that’s it.

Very frustrating

Yes looks like it’s due to the new media agreement for coverage being purchased by TNT.
Guessing their won’t be any goals show until it goes out on TNT.

There's an FA Cup MoTD later today on BBC.  I guess the individual game clips are popping up on the BBC website slowly.  There's more there this morning than last night.  But still not ours.

There’s also a clip of Owen Bailey’s goal on Twitter (X)

Great assists by Clifton and Mols for the goals

Great anticipation by both Sharp and Bailey to move into the positions to score..

That’s not highlights, that’s just the goals! Poor service from TNT.

Superb movement by Bailey for the 2nd. That's top class striker-stuff

A very clever move for the second goal with Billy running into space and Clifton reading the move perfectly .

Looks better with every viewing. He's some player is Bailey.

And Sharp's first was a classic example of the standard guidance to strikers breaking the line. Make a diagonal run and look for the straight ball through the line. It was excellent by Clifton, but Sharp's run made it easy for him. He ran into a position where Clifton could play the simple straight ball through the defence. Fascinating to watch a master of the art at work. He makes it look so simple.

The first was like a 3 on 3 training drill. Thats something Billy will have done in training a million times over the years. We just need to work more of that type of opportunity.

The second was a great run but how is nobody tracking Bailey? You can see their No6 pointing too him but its too late then. That near post run is such a valuable one when Mols is crossing. From the right side when he crosses, if his body shape is suited to a right foot cross (or outside of the left foot as is here, same thing really) the ball goes to the front post so often.

Yes radio commentary indicated they were good goals.
On viewing it does proves what we have saying about not getting great balls to our players in the box, these were spot on.
At first I thought mols had crossed with his right, but replays shows just how good it was with his left.

Listen to the Crewe manager, the goals were mistakes by them and they should have won the game

That’s to be expected Filo isn’t it.
When teams score a goal it is praised as good movement or great anticipation etc but when the same type of goal is conceded it is bad marking, switching off  or not picking a player up etc.

Most goals are mistakes. Both horrific play by them admittedly. But their goal was poor play by us!

Their goal was like reliving the Wigan away game!

Bailey's run came from deep. Against a tired defence, either playing zonally or just ball watching. But the fact that he came from deep made it harder to match up against him.

He spotted the gap and went for it. They were neither and for man or zonal, the were like an u9s team lined up along the 18yard line. Still have to take advantage of these things and we dif brilliantly, the ball was great an the run equally so.

Got to admit I didn’t appreciate Mols pass for the winner as much as it deserves having seen the clips
