Thoughts?
Conor Washington did well in Northern Ireland’s win. It wasn’t just the highlight stats of the goals and the assists, either.
His distribution was accurate (71%) and whilst he might not have passed at high volume (24 attempts) he had two of his passes set up teammates for chances.
An all-round good performance that bodes well for Charlton’s next game on September 11 at home vs Cheltenham.
