The Miracle of Talayuela/Spain
FC Dreamhunter made the miracle happen!!! After a 2-4 loss in the first leg of the Cup we traveled to Spain hoping to get out of the competition in style and not be embarassed again, especially as I was not able to coach the team (only was able to watch the match from another account). Last night we went shopping and signed two 6*-strikers as this was our problem in the last games. Our former strikers were simply not good enough for the competition.
Our opponent started with 3W-3N-1-3 and we decided to play him this time with a 4-3W-1-2 formation. The first thirty minutes saw our team with a slightly higher ball-possession and some chances, before our 22 yr. old English Striker Andy Limb scored his first goal. At halftime we were leading 1-0 but still needed at least two more goals to advance. After the intermission came the magic seven minutes where Limb scored another two goals and gave the assist for the first goal of 22 year old Peruvian striker Luis Posito. So 4-0 after 55 minutes and eight minutes later our Irish Midfielder David Hudson made it 5-0. In minute 71 Monki FC got one goal back but was not able to score again. Actually Limb would have had another chance for his fourth goal - but nevertheless he became the MoM.
So we are thrilled that we unexpectedly advanced into the last 16!!!
Berkshire Utd beat the second placed team 1-0 which was an important win in the League - but compared to the match of the other franchise-team these are only minor news.
HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY![]()
