Season 71 - Week 4

[pcmacdaniel]

Last couple days have produced 3 wins and 1 loss.

CL: Won 2-0 away, using 4-5-1V against opponents 2w-1-4-1-2. Not really a surprise, just a workmanlike result against a team w/o a DC.

League: Lost 1-2 to 10th which reduced our advantage to 2 points atop the table.

League: Todays league match was a rematch against Saleh FC, whom beat us 1-0 on opening day. This game saw a reversal of fortunes as the boys thoroughly dominated to the tune of 8-1, dropping Saleh FC to 5th on goal differential. Definitely didn't expect to see a 8 spot, as the boys previous season high was 5 (twice in league, once in CL) and Saleh began the day in CL spot, was in Round of 16 and only had conceded 16 goals through 13 league fixtures.

Cup: Was back to the usual, low scoring defensive struggle as the boys picked up a 2-1 home victory. Looked to be going for an easy win with 11th and 29th minute goals, but the opposition defense dug-in, then pulled back an all-important away goal in the 84th minute. Formations were 3-5-2V for me and 4-3n-3 for him.
