League Update:
Won 5:1 on the road today against one of the weaker teams in the league. The one conceded goal was on a PK.
Cup Update:
The first leg of the Playoffs Round was the away match. The opposing team is the first team of the same level that Ninjaa FC has faced so far, so even though my team should have beaten them easily, instead they struggled. The other manager watched the match, but for some reason didn't sub out his player that got injured early (but his team did better after the injury of course...). Ninjaa FC scored in the 1st minute, and again before halftime, to lead 2:1. The match ended as a 3:3 draw however, and most of the players for Ninjaa FC had poor ratings. Still though, 3 away goals and a draw in the away match should both be good signs.
I've had the team playing in 4-5-1 V a lot more recently, hoping the more defenders would give the team better chances, but they seem to be playing worse, so I will likely try going back to my usual more offensive tactics tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the most important day of the season so far, as in league Ninjaa FC plays against the toughest opponent they ill face in the league, and a match in CL against the team they lost to yesterday. Winning both will put the team in control of the league, and back on decent footing in the group in CL.
