Orchestrated a stunning comeback to win 17-14 in associations today. We lost the 1st leg 3-12; but pulled off a miraculous rally in the 2nd leg.
In the 1st leg I lost 1-2, conceding to a counter-attack in the 85th minute. It was a tactical screw-up on my part, I knew he was sitting back and playing on the counter, but I wanted to try and push for a late winner, instead of being content w/ the draw, and lost. 2nd leg I adjusted, electing to place the emphasis on the defense, since I have an excellent one, instead of feeding his counter-attacks. The opponent proved tough yet again, but this time the boys pulled through for a 3-1 win, and my new keeper is playing great, making 5 saves (including a penalty) in the 3-1 win.
Tomorrow's fixture pits a pair of 4-5-1v formations head to head. His best players seem to be his AML and AMR. Hopefully my DL and DR are up to the challenge. Definitely a case of strength vs. strength ,
