RR Cup 1/16 round - 2nd leg
Perfect Tactics (1) 2-1 (1) Barakuda FC
Perfect Tactics: 83.5, 4-2-2-2 hex/4-2-2-1 | barakuda FC: 86.4, 3N-5-2 flat
Perfect Tactics win 3-2 on aggregate.
We are through to the last 8 for the first time in ELEVEN SEASONS. It was such a close match and luck was finally on our side this time. We got off to the best start we could, Wacker with a long range strike. We continued to press and Nascimento was through on goal, setting up Sabitzer for an important 2 goal lead. There was always a worry that the 2 early goals would be bad news and it was because barakuda FC were searching for a way back and they got fortunate through Consuegra following a counter attack. We dominated but couldn't find the 3rd goal and eventually barakuda FC were knocking on the door trying to get an equaliser. Things got nervy for us when Vittalone hand balled in the box and was sent off for spitting. From the resulting penalty, Berbatov botched his shot and the score remained at 2-1. We held on for a historic victory here, defeating a stronger opponent and progressing further than we have in almost a year.
