    Knocked out the Cup yet again

    First round, yet again.
    Dominated the home game against an opponent 2 levels above me who had 9 men by half time and wasn't watching, yet drew 3-3.
    Coulda put money on the draw in the return leg but a lower score obviously, and what happens?
    10 mins in I get a man sent off, they score from the free kick, I score immediately after, and then proceed to miss everything.
    Result 1-1 and go out on the away goal rule for the 8th time in 12 seasons.

    Feel free to share yer first round sob stories!

    i've never got past the first round for 10 plus seasons, often against weaker team, seems like the game is very different in cup matches to the league

    Its only the cup!, the team you played was two levels higher so yo had it all to do, what was the skill difference?.
    x 17 x 5 x 1

    Double winners x 5 , Treble x 1 ...Perfect league wins 26/26 x 1 (L8).
    Every comment I make on this forum is based on my own experiences and so should be taken as such!.

    It happen the same thing with my main team, 2:2 home, 0:0 away watched both games, more possession, more shots, but out on away goals.

    In other of my teams lose 1:0 away, 1:1 home, again watched both matchs, dominated both games.
    THIS GAME IS TO RANDOM! I STOP WAISTING MY TIME!

    I am 64.5, he is 64.7.
    It's not so much the result, more the fact that it happens almost every season, going out on away goals after easily being the better team over two legs.
    If only I could find a bookmaker who would take a bet on these games!!!

    Blatant trolling.

    Don't mean to rub it in but I got through. That said, I thought I too was on the end of a trolling when I drew the first game away 2-2 against an abandoned team who was weaker than me and had 9 men (one sent off and one injured) by 60 minutes. Thankfully today I won the home leg 6-0.

    Knew I wasn't gonna get through. Once again get someone 2 levels higher, with a much better team. Tactics don't do a god damn thing in this game against higher level teams. Once again the other person wasn't watching. Deffo should be a disadvantage to not watching the match IMO.

    He had a 4141 formation, so I tried to counter and went 352, outnumbering his midfield and attack. Lost 3-1 at home lol
