The type of pass/cross from Murray probably put a bit of spin on it and it also took a bounce just in front of him, coupled with the defender's presence it was probably a bit harder than it looked but would still expect a striker to hit the target from so close.  

Probably balances out their earlier miss.

It was indeed a 'sitter' in the eyes of us fans and it's really disappointing / frustrating that he missed it. I think I could probably have scored in that position and off that pass by Murray.

However I won't be criticising him for that or any other sitter he's accused of missing. Fact is he made the run and got there to get the chance; I know for a fact that I would never have got into that position. I'm also 99% sure that none of those criticising him would've got near it.

I'm also not buying into any argument of 'if it had been this striker or that striker' because this striker or that striker might have made a different run and might have scored - but then again they might have been nowhere near it.

I am sure that Main himself will look back at that in the team videos this week and think could / should, however defender certainly didn't make it easy for him.

It is a sitter but the defender does well to put him off too. Just gets underneath it when he probably would have been better just letting it hit off the bottom of his foot. It was a great move though, the pass by McCracken, the run and cross from Murray and the run from Main were all excellent. Makes me think we will be a real threat from counter attacks when McCracken can release it early.

Yeah was a horrible horrible miss , no excuses,  it should have been buried....simple as that.

 

Late Arab headed chance was almost as bad , but yeah Main blew it and could so easily have been a Derby hero and had us all laughing and enjoying ourselves .
