I was surprised Pitt had all the possession in the 1st Half. Quite honestly, Pitt is a lot better. I knew we were better but didn't think it was that drastic. That said, its soccer and it only takes 1. IU is very well coached, very disciplined and seems quite content to bunker in and defend. I think you're going to see them try to hit Pitt on more counters. If IU is going to score, its going to have to be on a counter, a set piece, or a defensive mistake.
I was a little disappointed Pitt didnt get many good chances but credit IU's defense. Petkovic absolutely should have scored. A total mishit there. And Noel didnt get enough on that header but other than the near own goal, we didn't have a ton of quality chances.
I think if your IU, you'd be elated with 0-0 and PK's. We'll see if Pitt can break through.
