Season 72 - Week 3

[Amane Ito]

Cup second matchup



Here is the catch: although I'm two levels higher, his average quality is actually 4.2q higher.


Lost 2:3 home first leg:




So, his t11 is ten 4* and one 5*, all but one have special abilities.
Here, you can see the keepers are not doing a great job. So what did I do?


I replaced the 2* keeper with a... er, -1*
What did I just said, you ask?



A player quality 140~144 is 1* for my level 29 team.
So, quality 139 should be a "zero star", and this guy has 134q, that is... well, -1.
Even for that level 27 team, this player is 1* on his perspective.



The result?




3 shots saved out of 4 making this GK the hero, my team advance to the next round. 4 different players scored a goal in my team including 1* ST and 1* MC.
It is obvious that his 4* keeper with SA in bad form is to blame. Both teams made 4 shots in and he saved none of them.
If he had replaced the keeper with a workable one, his team shouldn't have been eliminated here.

The bad form MC in my team took two yellow to a red at 75', although I was winning 1:3 at that point. The later goal the captain made add insult to the injury...


You don't put a player to the pitch and just hope for the best, but see the results and field-in the best. This is management.
I don't get into the CL at level 29 with such a low quality team by luck did I?
