CHIFLY 0-2 July Fourth League Round 1
CHIFLY 91.8 wierd looking 4-3-2-1 - July Fourth 101.8 1st Half: 3N-1-2-3W-1, 2nd Half 4-1-2-1-2 ND.
We got the league season underway with a scrappy 2-0 win over CHIFLY in spain, The game was overshadowed with 2 injuries to my players in this one, and we were annoyed with the dirty tactics that the home side used, playing asymmetrical formation and throwing on hard tackling, having said that we got the job done from a brace from last seasons player of the year L.McNamara, In the 5th minute Miku had a shot on goal which was saved before L.McNamara minutes later got us in front. Martinez for the home side was booked for a challenge on little Miku, Miku got back up and spat in Martinez's face and was very angry with the home teams style of play, luckily the officials never saw this, otherwise Miku would have seen red. Kevin Mensah drove the free-kick narrowly wide, The home side then Fornes go in 2 footed on Papaleo but he missed the challenge and Papaleo immediately passed it L.McNamara who broke the offside trap and smashed it in the bottom corner, Next Kevin Mensah got hurt and we had to change tactics at half-time and we decided to go with the Narrow Diamond and try and play everything through Miku and Michu who we brought on for the second half, but it was more of the same, the home teams dirty spanish players just wanted to send us home with 11 injured players if they could, Miku had 2 great chances from goal in the second half, one was saved and one hit the post, P.McNamara also seen an effort blocked. In the 86th minute Miku was on the ball and challenged and Miku elbowed Martinez and the Officials once again missed it.
CHIFLY are in for it when the return fixture at Islington Park, I will assure it.
Goals: L.McNamara (13,37) MOTM: Papaleo.
Mensah out for 5 days??? I don't think so.
