RR Cup 1st round - 2nd leg

In'am FC (2) 1-3 Perfect Tactics (3)

In'am FC: 69.0, 4-1-4-1 | Perfect Tactics: 67.7, butterfly

Perfect Tactics win 6-3 on aggregate.

We suffered a scare but we came back from a goal down to go through to the next round of this RR Cup. It was quite an even match for the first 25 minutes, both sides not really causing problems for each other. That was until Mattaila broke through the defence and put the ball on a plate for Piwsawad to tap in. That would have been enough to knock us out and we knew we needed at least 2 goals to have a chance of staying in this competition. We had shots missed, Petersen missed a great chance for the equaliser but his shot went wide. Then Van der Zande's shot resulted in a corner only for the goalkeeper to make the grab. It didn't really look to be going for us but we were the better side, we forced more corners and eventually we scored from one. Silly getting his head to the ball and powering it in for a deserved equaliser. In the 2nd half we took the lead, Shlimazl went through on goal and unleashing a shot that almost broke the net. We were in control now and only a freak turn of events would put us out. Our opponents gave up and didn't really threaten, Petersen then knocked a free kick into the top corner, making it 1-3 and finishing In'am off. They got a red card a few minutes later but it didn't change the result.

Goals: Piwsawad (26'), Silly (43'), Shlimazl (49'), Petersen (74')
Sent off: Ayodele (77')
MOTM: Petersen

Chano Petersen: +1 goal = 490 goals - 10 more to go

Let's see how far Perfect Tactics can go in the RR Cup this season... It's always the midway stage you tend to become unstuck.

[Mr Mercury]

Well, this sucks. Out of the cup in the preliminary round again, 4-3 agg. against a nothing-special team one level below me.
Now haven't won a single cup game since winning the thing two seasons ago.
Looking forward to the league draw...

[Morgan O'Bree]

And were out from the troo-looo-lo CUP prelims for the 3rd consecutive time....

Started with the 3-1-4-2 but conceded 2 goals (thanks Morgan for the advice! ), but managed to get back into the game with the ND. But still, it wasn't enough and FC Kosice are through after 7-4 on aggregate.

And from what I can tell, both Dynamo Swag, Fenerbahce, FC Miwo, TanerGS are eliminated while Orchard Utd, Arsenal FC, RSCA Anderlect and last season Cup winners FC Kunovice barely made it through (away-goal rule). Also the former Cup winners, the bulgarian team "FC Ovech" have to overturn a 2-1 loss at home... This cup is just pure lottery



TANKING SEASON HERE WE COME!

you said it was 4-4-2, not wide diamond D:

Anyways i welcome you, i just got my 8th injured in the 8th friendly! XD

ROYAL RUMBLE CUP - 1ST ROUND, 2ND LEG

United Til I Die 3-0 Micbio FC

United Til I Die 87.8 3N-1-4-1-1 Micbio FC 3N-4-1-2

Burbur scored from distance early doors and we were well on top and midway through the half Da Cunha added a second and with our defense playing well I was sure we had done the hard work, I gave the team a pep talk at half time and told them not to take their foot off the gas and I was right as our opponents created chances but just did not take them just like us in the first leg and then on the hour mark Hervias wrapped up the tie with a blistering volley.

Goals: Burbur (13), Da Cunha (19), Hervias (61) MOTM: Lendl

Team Talk: We murdered them, what a completely different performance we took our chances and our defense was on top and they missed their chances and a special thanks to dv8r for his help with formation.

Nice stuff.. Did you pass down the flanks or mixed passing?

Lendl always seems to put in some shifts for your team, seems to be a good player.

[reddeviljohn]

My boys done me proud, no tm, 2 scouts added and they piss over a level 15 team like that!

[reddeviljohn]

Lendl always seems to put in some shifts for your team, seems to be a good player.

Yeah he does although q wise he is our weakest defender and I was thinking I may need to replace him as maybe that is where I need to strengthen but maybe he is not done yet.

[reddeviljohn]

mixed passing like you said.

[Gasi]

Pls I need some help, my question is, if I unfriend my referral on FB, will he still be my referral in T11?
Thanks

But heck... I'll take the 1 win out of the 6, rather than have a bunch of close calls.
