Desert Rats FC

[talisman]

Day 4, Part 1.

The second League match at home, and an attacking formation from the opposition, so the Management set the Rats up defensively. With Quality relatively even, the existing MR was deemed not up to the job and a replacement purchased from the transfer market.



The expected attacking performance from the visitors failed to materialise and after a first-half stalemate, the Management decided to up the ante. DMC Mohamed Ali had received a yellow card in the first half, so was slated for replacement after the break, but while this was pending the opposition scored from a set-piece. ML Stefan Vukomanivic was moved up to AML and new-boy Andreas Gurski was replaced by Patrick Tillmanns as the home side went from 4-1-4-1 to 4-5-1V, and the move immediately brought dividends. Vukomanovic was replaced by Damian Zerbo and Desert Rats completed the comeback for a 3-1 win.
