CHAMPIONS LEAGUE GROUP E ROUND 3
GALATASARAY 0-3 July Fourth
GALATASARAY 113.8 4-4-2 Classic - July Fourth 124.3 3N-3N-3W-1 then 2nd half 3N-1-2-3W-1
I decided to name an unusual attacking formation in this game against the 4-4-2 classic and it worked quite well I felt, Always attacking and moving the ball well against an opponent we last played against that resulted in a 5-1 win for us in a CL final some seasons ago... Obviously with our poor start in the group stage and the amount of NGE trolling going on at the minute I was quite uneasy about things but we played really well this evening... It did take 43 minutes for us to grab the lead with a Pietropaolo run past the defence and setting up for our top scorer Miku to tap in for another goal this season, the second half we dominated and always gave ourselves chances to score from all angles... Stuart made it 2-0 on 51 minutes with a 25 meters shot... Pietropaolo continued to create things and take shots on goal before eventually he was brought down in the area for a penalty in which he despatched by sending the keeper the wrong way and that was game over.
Goals: Miku (43) Stuart (51) Pietropaolo (64 PEN) MOTM: Pietropaolo.
Team Talk: That result has eased the doubts of an early exit and we now currently sit as group leaders before Chainat play against Radri this evening, We host GALATASARAY in the return game in 2 days time but we will be going into friendlies mode tomorrow since we don't have a cup fixture tomorrow after being eliminated yesterday.
