EXCLUSIVE: Jets star Adam Griffiths says China's plan to take on the Socceroos at altitude backfired, as did their limp tactics in the two sides' World Cup qualifier on Wednesday.
To see Pim and the Aussieroos arrive home in Sydney this morning...
Speaking with au.fourfourtwo.com after landing at Sydney airport early this morning, the 28-year-old former Brentford player said: “I don't think it [the altitude factor] affected them in the end, it was quite good actually. I think it affected the Chinese more than the Australians.
Griffiths added that he was surprised with China's tactics of letting the Socceroos play out from defence and not pressure the man high up the park.
“Yeah, they sat off us, especially in the first 20 minutes but it was a good performance by the boys,” said Griffiths, who sat on the bench throughout the Kunming qualifier.
Griffiths and his Newcastle grand final winning teammates will attend the Jets' presentation night tonight before taking a break in April.
