Champions League Quarter-Final 2nd Leg

July Fourth 0-1 LaFruta

2-2 on Aggregate: July Fourth win on away goals
July Fourth 150.0 Narrow Diamond - LaFruta 146.6 3N-2W-3N-2

I stuck to my original game plan of using the narrow diamond since it went well towards the end of the first leg and gave us that 2-1 advantage, much to our concern, we had little idea how important those away goals were in the end of this tie, We set out to start the game quite defensively and trying to hit them on any counter attack since we knew with our opponents power support thatwe would be lower than normal on possession, Hardy and Calavicci both had good games, cutting out pretty much every attack that LaFruta had to offer along with Joo who always looked threatening and trying to break us down, Eventually in the second half we were beaten when Joo found Efthymiadis who gave the keeper no chance, We tried to switch to attacking to look to find the 'insurance' goal and threw on Miku for the tiring Petersen, This changed the game late in our favour as Miku had 3 shots blocked but we couldn't find a way through and neither could LaFruta at the other end as Calavicci put in yet another fine defensive display. We advanced on the away goal rule.

Goals: Efthymiadis (51) MOTM: Efthymiadis

Team Talk: Well we were not at our best today and the tie was there for the taking, Our opponents will feel frustrated to lose on away goals, nobody likes to lose on away goals, It's happened to us before and I know how it feels, but those are the rules.
