Season 66 - Week 4

[Blackkiwi]

So I just had the away leg for the Cl after my home leg was 0-0. I figured i would try to be a bit more aggressive this time, so played 3-5V-2, with arrows pretty much on everything (Was having some fun ), and aggressive play. I was also starting with a new MC combination, after newly acquiring a MC 20 mins before when I realised my usual MC had a red card...After having a quiet few games Steimel (my star AMC) was almost going to be benched, but I decided to start him in the hope he could lift himself for the big game. And lift he did! 9 mins in my ST gets taken down outside the box, steimel steps up and sends a beautiful free kick curling into the goal. It got quiet for a bit then on the 32min my ST and new MC combined for two quick goals. BOOM BOOM , just like that 3-0. I got pretty relaxed, but my opposition wasn't done yet!. He changed to a 5-2-2-1 and went on the counterattack. He hit the first goal on the 40th, so went into half time 3-1. Then on the 64th he hit another and now it was 3-2. Since I had the away goals I was still feeling all right, but I still rung the changes and got some tired bodies off the pitch. In the 82nd he hit his 3rd....now I was really freaking and my team was completely demoralised. In the 88th min he got a free kick..."bends around the defensive wall.." "Chojecki makes a incredible save!!!!" Out for a corner, now in the 89th min. The corner comes in...and who comes to the rescue? MY DC CAPTAIN ON HIS RECORD 200th appearance!. My heart almost exploded. So the game finished up 3-3. Sorry for the long chat, but it was the most tense game of my life. I now proceed to the finals for the fourth season in a row, hoping to also collect my fourth CL in a row!




Also won in the league match 8-0, so the league is almost locked up now. 2nd still has to play me, 3rd and 4th, so I don't anticipate him challenging with such tough matches ahead.



Steimel is approaching a club record 150 goals. I suspect he will get there next game. All in all a good days work, with a lot of weary bodies after 2 matches back to back, and no greens to help the troopers out.

ONWARDS WE MARCH TO GLORY!!

FOR BLACKKIWI!!
