CD Lykahlior

Club Deportivo Lykahlior (known as Lykahlior) is a Chilean football team that operates under Lukah Lyon's (England) management.
The club's origins are found on 2013. Twenty youngsters formed a group and played amateur matches against other people of their city, Puerto Montt, until October 2016, time at which Marco Olivera (scout) saw potential on them and contacted who would be their first coach and manager, Lyon. With Lyon on board, the group defined their name (based on their manager) and collected funds to raise a stadium, the Valyor Park, in their city.
The club's official activities on the lower leagues started during the first days of the November 2016 season (currently being played), gaining supporters fast. Their fan club called themselves Los Lykas (The Lykas), honoring their chantics during a match.
Currently associated to Skull Squad Football Association (#EN7YUK).

Announcements

December 2nd

Demba Portalès's mindset now enables him to play attacking midfielder. Previously: central midfielder.
Nazim Yilmaz's star-rating is now 4 stars according to the league's standards. The hardwork in training paid off!

December 3rd

New shirt numbers have been allocated to reserves & substitutes, including newly transferred players. During a meeting with these players they all agreed they "deserved to be considered a whole squad", and they arranged the calendary so they would play some non-vital fixtures and get pitch minutes. The missing player position in this new second squad will be fulfilled by Paul Morack, and the formation will be a 4-2-3-1 with no defensive midfielders. For vital fixtures where the first squad is used, the captain (Christian Hinterleitner) will be in charge for deciding who's going to be on the bench. Everyone is happy with this change.

10' to 60' - Torres tries to grab another goal for the lead, but it flies too high.

Fixture
December 4th, 18:30 - Away against Bangor FC (League Fixture)

Chosen squad and formation: Second squad, trying out a 4-2-3-1 with a zig-zag barrier in mid-attacking midfield and no midfield support for the defence.

Statistics
Possession: Bangor FC 20% - 80% Lykahlior
Passes completed: Bangor FC 80% - 81% Lykahlior
Free kicks: Bangor FC 0 - 4 Lykahlior
Shot efficiency: Bangor FC 33% - 73% Lykahlior

Highlights
2' - The match has just begun. We're seeing some incisive passing from Lykahlior... Mykhel Chiwkhunthot on the move... he lends the ball to his teammate, Yilmaz... back to Mykhel! He's alone in front of the goal and they score! Bangor FC's fans are mute, Bangor themselves are taken aback, and Lykahlior is going wild! 0-1 (Lykahlior)

10' - Long passing from the goalie, Alnwick. The opposition's defenders are caught off-guard, Korkmaz is leading the charge, he keeps running... is he aiming for the goal? He tricks the goalkeeper, passes the ball to Yilmaz and he's the one who's put this one away! The very few fans of Lykahlior are undoubtedly happy and celebrating! Two nil in 10 minutes! 0-2 (Lykahlior)

11' - Bangor FC restart the match, really looking down. Hold on, the midfielder has lost the ball. Chiwkhunthot is pushing forward, Mawardi receives a perfect pass... once again, Lykahlior's signature moves are on! Mawardi shoots!... ... ... THREE NIL in ELEVEN minutes! Bangor's goalie is plain FURIOUS with his defence! Where in Earth were they?! 0-3 (Lykahlior)

21' - After the three-goal rampage, Bangor FC looks solid on the back, but they still can't put their hands on an opportunity to score. Farore steals the ball in the middle of the pitch, passes it high to Lesniewski at the other side of the pitch... Lesniewski and Jakirovic... Jakirovic to Chiwkhunthot... Chiwkhunthot crosses it low! Evans attempts to head it out, but does so poorly! Yilmaz on the volleyyyy!... yet again, Lykahlior score. Bangor FC should learn some tricks from Yilmaz, as his double could turn into a hat-trick. Watch out. 0-4 (Lykahlior)

25' - The whole Lykahlior squad seems to be very solid on their first match, while Bangor does not. A corner is conceded... Leland with the header... and it's yet another goal! A dream debut for Ryan Leland, the new defender! Morack comes close and congratulates him. Such a honor! 0-5 (Lykahlior)

32' - Lykahlior turns off after the 5-goal lead: they've considered this a settled-down matter. The opposition is on the move, Lloyd receives a perfect pass and it's -surprisingly- a goal for Bangor FC! That just goes to show they're not going down without a fight! Bangor fans aren't celebrating much, anyways. 1-5 (Bangor FC)

41' - This rollercoaster of a match is up for grabs: we can't take anything for granted after these six goals. And we aren't even in the second half yet! Commenting further, Lykahlior is still alive here... Korkmaz... Chiwkhunthooooooooooooot! 1-6 (Lykahlior)

49' - Surely this 5-goal lead is comfortable for everyone in the Lykas' team. But watch it, they aren't finished yet... Korkmaz takes a free-kick from the middle of the pitch, the ball goes forward-- Yilmaz with an overhead kick!... Bangor FC is real mute. Hat-trick for Nazim Yilmaz. 1-7 (Lykahlior)

53' - Morack asks Chiwkhunthot to step aside: he says he's going to take this free-kick. Chiwkhunthot complies; it's all about experience on the pitch and Paul Morack is a first-squad player. The barrier jumps, but the ball is going under it instead of over! The keeper couldn't hold it either and it's ANOTHER goal for Lykahlior! EIGHT goals, this one isn't even being celebrated. And thirty-seven minutes remaining. 1-8 (Lykahlior)

60' - We already knew which team was the strongest team on paper, and certainly they've demonstrated it on the pitch, too. Chiwkhunthot passing forward... Jakirovic... and a goal. Bangor FC's fans are not happy about it. 1-9 (Lykahlior)

71' - Bangor FC is not even playing anymore. Korkmaz is left alone in the last third of the pitch, but the defenders are not doing anything. The keeper makes an effort... but no. It's another goal. 1-10 (Lykahlior)

81' - The opposition's skipper has ordered everyone to stay behind, on the defensive line. So far it has worked well for the team, but the game has become a boring one. Say, Korkmaz found a way in... and shakes the net once more. It's probably going to end in another hat-trick. Who knows. What we do know, anyways, is that one of these two teams has won their league fixture today. 1-11 (Lykahlior)

Final result: Bangor FC 1 - 11 Lykahlior

Notes
The stadium didn't fill half of the total seats. Most Bangor FC fans chose to stay home today. And... looks like Lykahlior's manager stayed home, too. Too bad, he could've seen his reserve team humiliating their opposition. (+1 possession for Bangor FC)
The Man of the Match award goes to Mykhel Chiwkhunthot, with a 10.0 rating. Harun Korkmaz and Nazim Yilmaz had the same rating, too.
According to the league's standings, if Lykahlior wins 2 more matches (or earns 6 more points), they will crown themselves as the League Champions.
