Ravers managed to win their final game away to mancity, God knows how!
As you know Ravers are have a nose for engine trouble, smelt it a mile off.
mancity played 4-3-1-2 with a AML.
Ravers played a standard 4-1-2-2-1 V
Hard defending, Focus Both flanks, Own half, Tackling Normal, Passing long, Zonal.
Possession started at 68/32 in Ravers favour but every other stat was against them heavily, the game engine was after re arse.
Ravers down to their last two MC's after recent injuries had Diaz booked on 3 minutes (the dreaded left side of the MFC).
The first 25 minutes belonged to city attack after attack was thwarted by last ditch challenges by every player in the side.
Douglas managed to find some space after a long ball forward from Keeley, leading the city defence a merry dance he thundered it into the top corner.
Every tackle seemed to be picking up warnings and free kick and on 46 minutes Diaz was shown a red.
ravers reluctant to change much left Tugay in MC but he was getting so much attention from the ref it was decided to move Wilcox and Douglas to AMC and sitting a little deeper, it had the desired effect with Ravers switching play through the centre, Douglas found Wilcox turning and shooting in one 2-0 to Ravers, the roles for the AM's was taking it's toll, fearing injury Wilcox was withdrawn for Hanycek a change to formation was made 4-2-1-1-1.
Wow! suddenly the possession shoots to 48/52 in favour of city. Chances started to become more frequent, Jones had to make three saves in 10 minutes, Hanycek was booked fearing the worse Douglas was also replaced by Garner partnering Shearer up top.
Ravers managed to hang on and beat fifth placed enginecity keeping them out of next seasons CL
