League: A fine display was shown by the boys of Bali United ZAFT as we smashed Turkey's Ercan FC six goals to nil at Denpasar earlier today. The opponent manager's decision to abandon his team (presumably for tanking purposes) left me with the ability to experiment with a few flank-based formations - starting off as an attacking 4-4-2 before switching to 4-3w-3 along the way. Passing are focused towards the flanks, with both ML and MR getting red arrows, and the DR-DL getting alternated between reds and blues. Tran Ngo "Chan" Thuy Trang starts as the initial ML of the game, before being replaced at HT by Lennon Takeo in order to boost the team's overall firepower. A substitution that paid off as Takeo bounces back from all the criticism that he and Chan got after their disappointing display in the defeats to Imron FC and Dortmund as well as the Dream Team draw - by scoring a brace and bagging the Man of the Match award. Captain Lee Noriega recovers from a goal drought to score the team's second goal, while Le Huu "Largo" Hoang Anh continues his superb form lately by scoring the opener. Aila Jyrkiäinen passes off an opportunity to end his own drought by assisting Karin Kikuhara's 9th league goal as well as the team's third, while a rare teamwork between defenders Shizuha Doi and Nguyen "Two" Phuc Khanh Linh enables the latter to add to the rout before Takeo bags his brace.

An away match to another abandoned team awaits, this time we travel to Bucharest to take on Maria Violeta FC. Gonna experiment once again by testing out a 4-2-2-2 Hexagon for tomorrow's match.
