Missed yesterday's update due to being busy, so a little extra for today.

Firstly, Rhondda Rovers reserves beat Deportivo 5-0 in their own back yard with a comfortable win. Musebeliu has been on fire recently and currently has 4 goals in the League. Decent return so far.



In the second round of the Champions League, Rhondda Rovers cruised to a 5-1 away victory over Doc Adam. However, as per other managers frustrations, Rhondda Rovers suffered two injuries in the match, Lopez in midfield (who is becoming a bit injury prone at present) and Chikin in attack. Lopez had an instant recovery while Chikin was rested for one day before being fully fit.



That is now 2 in 2 in the Champions League, with us playing second place (who have also won both games) tomorrow.

Finally, Rhondda Rovers played the second leg of the Cup against BadAss XI with the tie currently 0-0. After watching the game for about 10 seconds, I left the game and hoped for a win. Thankfully, we pulled through and won 2-1, sending us through to the next round.



However, Nordeus thought it would have a laugh and injure Shivyakov in the 88th minute. He is currently awaiting a decision on treatment. Pricks.

EDIT: Just played my League match against Dayerson and, despite a worrying first half where we were struggling to score but dominating, the quality told in the second half and Van Buyten turned it on.



No injuries either. Nordeus read the above beforehand............maybe.

As y'all can see it was a very shaky start on the road but in form CM Segreste came up huge again in the first leg not only providing the equalizer but 2 mins later making it a brace with what would be the eventual winner and a 3rd critical road goal.

This puts OR in a good position coming back home but it certainly does not clinch advancement against the lvl 7 opp. After falling in this same round last season for my first and to date only 2 legged loss it is critical for morale to see the team on the the round of 32.


That is the only game on schedule today. Tomorrow is a 3 game day capped off with a late match against the only team capable of staying in the league race against me. They are only .5 points below OR on avg and are also 4-0-0 to start the season with 17/1 GF/GA compared to our 20/0.

Facing the return leg of the T11 Cup qualifying round. Here is my opponent and then the first leg result.

Overall it was a good day!

Cup: Lost 2:1 but advanced on aggregate.

League: Picked up a hard fought 1:0 victory over a team that projects to finish top 4. That puts us on 9 points, good enough for 2nd on goal differential.

Probably wont see real competition til QF of cup and CL.

Cyril Toraman, captain of the squad in seasons 1 and 2 has been released due to to the signing and subsequent selling of a $2M FA. He was worth 5 times his 400k value over the 81 games he was capped. Looking to add one more CB/DMC and hoping to keep current squad intact until day 25 or so.

It was yet another fine performance by CM Christian Segreste that kicked things off as he secured another brace in the first half. Our opp got one back before half time to cut the agg lead to 2 and they just needed to rattle off 2-3 unanswered goals to come back.

There were 3 goals in a 5 min span scored by one side in the last 15 mins but it was Olympique Rouen doing the scoring as they piled on for an emphatic 5-1 victory that sends them back to the round of 32 with an 8-3 agg victory.





After 10 competitive matches this season the teams stats look like this:



Danish ST Mikkel Sorensen leads the team in all 3 major categories with 9 goals, 6 assists, and 15 produced in total. He has been on a fine run of form with an 8.2 avg rating over his past matches. Segreste's brace moves him into 2nd with 8 goals on the season. CB Dimitrijevic and LW Sebastian Rocha have also been in great form of late as the team has won each of their first 10 games this season. They have a long way to go in order to match the team record of 31 straight victories or the record 50 game unbeaten streak.
