Season 87- Are you ready?

[talisman]

Desert Rats FC travelled to 11th place for their first match of 2017, and had to come from behind to register their latest win. Playing 4-4-1-1 against 4-3N-2(AMW)-1, AMC Simon Hunt got a rare start and immediately got himself in trouble, an injudicious tackle giving the home side an opportunity to take an early lead, which they duly did via a direct free-kick. The Rats had to wait until four minutes before the break for an equaliser, midfielder Glenn Seynaeve outsprinting the defence to a long defensive clearance and beating the 'keeper from close range. In the second-half, Hunt made amends for his earlier transgression by converting a right-wing cross from Emerson de Alencar Arraes, and after the Management had made a double substitution to rest some tiring players, Seynaeve added a direct free-kick and midfield Youth product Graeme Brooks thanked the medical staff for his quick recovery from injury with the final goal as Desert Rats won 4-1.

I can't believe we finish 3rd in association this week.

It feels like I want to rock bottom both captain and vice captain for also losing their match. Then finish it with the people's elbow.

Draw in our 2nd leg 1-1 and I think the players forgot to kiss the referee before the match starts. They should kiss the referee.

A midfielder gets second yellow card after chokeslam the opponent player. How unfortunate. Good job undertaker.

We won the 1st leg 3-0 and the manager try to celebrate with a breakdance but he can't.

And there's nothing left to say and that's the bottom line because stone cold said so.

Big Match Report :

AFC Green 1-2 Persebaya 2014

In the big away game against AFC Green, my team has to contend with the opposing supporters and the relentless charge from the green forces. But Shinji Okazaki managed to upset their GK with 2 spot on free kicks before Petrus Sutarto has to concede after a few minutes in 2nd half.

Misses next match :

Early rise for the Desert Rats Management this morning, and just time to check the transfer market before starting the day - Nordgens!!! Rather than behaving like a kid in a sweet shop, the current squad situation was studied and three players targetted, two must-haves, and a nice-to-have. The first two were bought for 1T each, total $15.9M spent, the latter one a 5*/44Q(99%) DL/DML attracted other interest and the Management ducked out after 5T with the buying price already north of Market Value by a fair amount...



MC Damian Bizacki and MR/DMR Jonathan Howley have been released for transfer.

Tomorrow, we can make a historic game.

We are a really good team, Costa is in perfect shape, my Keeper conceeded 491min no goal. We had a winning streak of 31, broken by only one goal against an FA-member at Cup-Semi. We don't have anything to lose and... I believe in this team.


If we also win at league, we are the champions (2.place struggle a lot lost games, we are 13 point ahead at the moment), so we can win two trophies tomorrow.

We started well, after 20min, it was 0:2 SoT to us, suddenly there was a pass and... goal. 1:0 for them (SoT 1:2). We lost controll and it ended in a desater... we lost 4:0 (11:5 SoT). All player were rated lower than 5,5 except my keeper, he was 7,7.

It had to be historic, but it was a black day. It tooks much work to get the team back, push them. They were really sad... and they didn't wanna hear, that the opponents are 4 level higher/better.

But... da Silva took the moral, scored 1:0 at 4' at our league game. He took the whole team, we won 4:0 against 3.place. So, we won the league today (4 games to go, 13 points ahead. ).

Let's concentrate... two more games for the double.
