League update: Red Bull Leipzig 1-3 FC Kneipenkick (0-2)
Today we travelled to the Eastern part of Germany to face RB Leipzig. In RL the club exists (leads 4th devision East thanks to Red Bull millions) and is named RasenBallsport Leipzig, because club name sponsoring is forbidden in Germany since about 25 years.
In my league RBL plays a 4-2DMC-AML-AMR-2ST. I thought at first that formation is illegal, but their manager Nina got normal possession stats (worst thus far 40-60) and also some good results (currently 7th). I interpreted the formation as a 4-2-2-2 hexagon and fielded a 4-4-2 classic. Purt (5.) and Afriyie (23.) made it quickly 2-0, but then my players tried to many distance shots and they were all blocked by the opponents DMC's. After 73 minutes RBL came up front, got a FK and Aubert (already with 9 goals in the league) scored, 1-2. I feared the match engine could screw me once more and brought with Kunz and Fathi additional scout quality (they were rested for the CL later). But neither of them decided the match, it was Rasch with a distance shot (84.), finally one was not blocked, 1-3. In minute 85 Mosqueda got an injury, but luckily this time we did not get screwed in the last minutes and lead the league, no matter what the other teams do later on today.
About Mosqueda I will have to use red packs, because my other ML Abdel Aal is already injured.
