LEAGUE, MATCHDAY 14

Fabian FC. 1 - 1 New Team

We had already sensed it yesterday, and today's match confirmed that the TROLL descended upon us for the second part of the league. Truth to be told, tho, everything was against us today.

Match was scheduled for 2.04 PM and due to work starting at 2.00 PM for me, and the boss still around, we had to set up our 4-3-2W-1 40 mins before the start. Our opponent, the strongest one on the league and currently 2nd, changed to ND before the kick off. Coach Mad managed to get there by the 20', and the very moment he joined the match a corner kick for Fabian Fc saw his AMC (4* 170 cm) heading the ball in against our 2 aerial defenders (7* 190+ cm). With this bad omen we switched to 4-5-1 w/o sorring any effect, then to 3-2-2-2-1 to just see a lil more, but still nothing worthy. In the second half, due to boss' presence, we went 3-5-2 V just after 65' and 4 minutes later we were getting the equalizer with our new AML Stein (69'). Just when finally we turned the pressure in our favour and we were pushing them, TROLL engine acted again and decided to have a late tackle on James Derrick injurying him and leaving us in 10. Callaghan had a perfect free kick which was tho saved in corner by the keeper. In the last minutes we had a double corner kick which saw our specialist aerial Denver of course getting wide the header of the possible 1-2.

What to say. A bad day. We abandon our 26-0-0 dream knowing that despite the many issues against, we shouldn't have draw today. Still, a loss woulda of have been pissed me A LOT more than this result. We were supposed to have the cup match at 4.45 pm but seeing the air at work and on troll engine's side, i decided to postpone it past midnight to be sure to be home for it.let's hope not into getting more tricks. Fabian FC's 3* and 4* defenders blocked every attempt of my 7* players today.

What happened there... I would of expected...

FABIAN FC 1-1 New Team

But I had it earlier in the season in the Royal Rumble Cup... Sometimes when your in a bad mood because of game engine TROLL or your higher level opponent filling his starting XI with a load of new scouts just bought after you won the first leg... you just don't feel like posting any sort of match report.

Sorry to hear that, I had same problem with a Q23 team in the beginning of the new season. (2-2 draw)... Despite how much you push/attack or try, they (your team) just won't score and your opponents 3/4* star players becomes "heroes" of the day. This season has been quite awkward (opposition, game development, results etc) for many. Also it seems quite impossible to get 26-0-0 record or keep a clean sheet... I´ve been following some teams (participants in the CL/CUP etc) this season and nobody has managed to get a clean/painless season. Better teams have struggled against inferior and some result are just ridiculous.

Anyway, hope it goes well in the CUP tonight!
