Sounds like chances were not created for the strikers if only one shot was made.

I said 1 shot on target. We actually had 12 goal attempts. Only 1 of those 12 goal attempts hit the target, which suggests we were very wasteful.
Just heard from someone who went to the game. Zohore was through on goal early on and got hacked down. Should have been a sending off, but the referee just gave their player a lecture. I don't mind that as playing 10 men in a friendly is no good to us.
However, another horrendous tackle was put in against us later on. It seems we played the game as a friendly, but Shrewsbury played the game like a cup final and if they had to put in a few tackles to get the upper hand, so be it.
