Cup: Buffs FC crash out of Cup on PKs.
The Buffs were 2-1 up from the away leg but all was still to play for on both sides. Opposition again boasted a better starting 11.
Opponent lined up in 4-hex and Buffs Mad manned the baricades with a 4-5-1V defensive counterattacking side. The Opposition manager came late and the Buffs had been creating chances but not taking them. Opposition took a first half lead in 38 mins when a FK from the right was volleyed home. A Buffs supported joined the action.
The away manager freshened up his wingers during HT and bagged a 2 goal lead 2 minutes after the restart from a strike that neither the GK nor the commentator saw coming. The Buffs squared up the agg when right winger Johnstone banged one in. McFadden came on for Right Winger Baxter and the chances were being made at both ends. The penultimate act saw the Away GK tip over a FK from Law. The opposition then nullified the corner kick and counterattacked - with GK McGregor pulling off a fantastic save to take it to ET.
The visitors were in the acendancy in the extra period, particularly the second 15 mins but the Buffs held on. Unfortunately the only one to miss a PK was the Buffs first penalty taker.
Out but not ashamed. The Buffs fought well and deserve credit.
In football it is better to be Lucky than Good.

Galatico FC first update of the season - Level 7
League: The Galaticos currently sit in 2nd after suffering their first defeat in a league season since season 2 (So about 80 league games? I think) Although I did have many draws during that.. A surprise 1-0 defeat against a team placed 9th in their league currently. They should deserve a medal for ending this great run.
The title race has been hotting up with confrontation against 4th and 1st in the next two days followed by a fixture against 3rd on sunday. The manager is preparing the team effectively by upping up the training and enforcing curfew upon the players.
Champs League: The Galaticos currently sit on top of group G and are already qualified as group winners as they hold a 8 point advantage over 2nd place with 6 points remaining. The manager aims to utilise the squad and give CL experience for the 2nd string teams until the group stages finishes. The manager expects a tougher test after the group stage who has also still yet to concede a single goal. The Manager however keeps the optimism down by never underestimating the opponents.
Cup: The manager is overjoyed as the Galaticos finally passed the playoff stage of the Cup since Season 4 by holding out to a 4-2 aggregate win over a difficult team. Many challenges now lie ahead of the team as they prepare for more cup action later on.
The manager will be very nervous as the draw will be held tonight as there are many Vietnamese teams in this cup competition which proves a difficult opponent as always. The team rallies to try to get their first treble in their history. But there is still a long way to go to achieve this.
interesting that the guy I post about some lines up... started doing nothing and been injuried after the match LOL
well... let's see if with training in max. 2 days appear... if don't, will be a epic fail...
xD
Academy FC played the first of two leage games this afternoon and had a troll result. Academy FC (29.5*, 1st place) hosted Caja.FC (19.7*, 11th place) and lost 2-1. CFC scored two first half goals (one where their DMC dribbled through my whole team; the other on a FK) and didn't look back. AFC pulled one goal back in the 71st minute, and even after CFC's LCM received a red card in the 75th minute, AFC was unable to score again.
The most troubling part is that AFC dominated every stat (except shot efficiency % where CFC has a 200%). No time to sulk as AFC plays another league game this evening against (insert team name from Thailand here) who has an average quality of 30.2* (though his team value is 7.9M less than mine) . . .
