So, yesterday afternoon Academy FC (32.9*, LV 4) hosted Gege (32.8*, LV 6) in the first leg of Cup qualifying. AFC had the full +13% possession and all starters were healthy and rested (Played a 4-5-1V vs thier 4-1-3-2). Gege scored in the 30th minute and that was all for the first half. Three minutes into the 2nd half on of their strikers got injured and (because the manager wasn't present) didn't get replaced. With 68% of the possession but not goals and fewer shots than my opponnent, I pulled off one of my MCs and put in another striker (giving me 4 "forward minded" players to combat their 4 defenders). In the 81st minute, Gege scored again, and AFC couldn't pull one back. We are now down 2 goals going into the away leg, on a day with a full schedule . . .

Today's match schedule: 8:30 AM (originally 11:30 AM) - League at home with Chelsea fc (29.0*, 10th place); 3:06 PM - CL away vs. newFC (27.9*); 8:45 PM - League away vs. xuanquanfc (22.8*, 6th); 11:47 PM - Cup away vs Gege.

I think it's safe to say that I will most likely be eliminated from the Cup tonight as I probably won't be up until midnight to watch the match. I will likely play my starters for the first and last match listed, and my subs/reserves will play the CL and 2nd league game.
