The cup game ended in another 1-0 defeat, which means I go out of the cup 2-0 on aggregate. Once again, my finishing punished me as a counter attack from a mistake put Arianto through on goal, passed it to my one on one scorer Jorgensen.....who put it wide. Even worse was the 'concede corner again' commentary that, 9.9 out of 10, ends with a goal. I got the 0.1. Jorgensen put it over. The end came in the 50th minute when Ebeye got booked for a late challenge and they scored from the resulting free kick. Despite going hard attacking and red arrows on all my midfield, we could not get back into the match.

Ah well. At least it was further than last season. For the days the cup would have been played, my League opponenets will feel the pain.
