A.C. Ianna reach for the first time CL final!!!
Yeah, we've been winning everything as we can (as expected) but its the change of cup format thats possibly seen me not win a few of those. Obviously we were not in favour of the format change but I think it suits the "majority" which is the middle of the road non-token players on older servers which means a fairer competition and more chance of winning something, we've just had to live with it really, just less games for us each season. Those matches in the cup were great opportunities to field our reserves against rubbish sides we would easily beat.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL 2ND LEG
July Fourth 2-0 JONCLAB
July Fourth Win 5-0 On Aggregate.
July Fourth 113.1 3N-1-3W-3 then after 32 minutes 3N-4-3 - JONCLAB 102.7 4-2-2-2 Hexagon
Bit of a boring game this, 2 early goals sealed the deal for July Fourth on the night, Norris getting us into the lead after dribbling the ball past a defender and Ivor Hardy getting a free-kick on target, both teams effectively stopped trying hard since the tie was a done deal anyways JONCLAB again had nothing to offer, a couple of substitutions and playing a couple of OOP. Hardy got injured just before HT which is what we didn't need, he has had a shocking season to be fair a shadow of what he done last season when he was signed and trained to 8*. Nothing else much to say.
Goals: Norris (4) Hardy (11)
Injury Report: Hardy out 4 days. Thinking of leaving him out the final against LIVERPOON now. He hasn't made much of an impression this season.

Good job bros'!
League, Day 23.
Forgot Name and Lazy To Check It FC 0 - 3 New Team
We were sleeping still when this started as we failed to avoid crushing the ringer on the wall at said time. On top of that, since we set up our reserve formation for the occasion, when at minute 8 Le Blanc got injured all our auto-subs were already on the field hence we had to play the whole match in ten people, lol at poor auto sub sistem. Yet we scored three times dominating kinda.
Scorers: P.Diamond, M.Stein, K.H.Schneider.
MoM: R.Flanagan (9), New Team.
CL, Semi-Finals, 2nd Leg
This time we didn't have any red cards advantaging us, and on top of that we had to rest Tom Becker due to a yellow card pending over his final. Yet we teached them a soccer lesson at our home not only overpowering them, but even using them as test subjects for our final against Catalunya FC (who won 0-3 suffering like hell but having 3 shoots count from their 7* players) since they use the same module. The match started quite balanced and for a couple of seconds we thought our narrow diamond wouldn't be a good choiche despite what we witnessed in the CL final phases until now, then around minute 10 the bar started pending in our favour and the pressure exponentially grew on them. After two failed attempts both coming from our defensive wingers, we set them on red arrows and it paid out when our star assister K.H.Schneider found F.Shirou on the side (DR) and served him the 1-0 ball (32'). Two corners followed straight with no result, but before half time Schneider jumped the defense for the third straight time and this one was the right one making it 2-0 before the first whistle (43'). In the second half we experimented setting on 4-5-1 V keeping more or less the same impact on the match. But when we realized our rested players weren't performing again and got Matsukase out for Diamond, we made bullseye as DIamond in 3 minutes from his entrance got 2 shoots deflected and right after offered Hutton a perfect pass which our Captain skyrocketed in the net (65'). With Stein on the left (AML) and Derrick playing OOP on the right (AMR) we got in another Striker for J.Ross (M.Lenders) getting on 4-2-2-2. Diamond reserved a spot for the final serving a second assist to Hutton who again tossed it in (77') proving his almost complete recovery and J.Romer found again the overlapping Shirou who scored his second goal and settled the final score (83').
Scorers: F.Shirou (2), O.Hutton (2), K.H.Schneider.
MoM: R.Flanagan (8), New Team.
New Teams accesses the final on 8-0 aggregate.
-With 2 MoM in a single day, Flanagan proved to have been the right choiche for Coach Mad who invested on the young defender since Season 2.
-Matsukase Tenma and Julian Ross seems to be still tired and needing a rest, their 6 scoring didn't satisfy Coach Mad at all who will ponder about resting them if tomorrow's match will prove the same again.
-After a double check, we can say that FC Norrkoping was UNBEATEN untill the semi finals against us. In the League they are firmly leading with 22W 1D 0L.
-The final will see New Team (49,4) facing Catalunya FC (47,4) in one hell of a last match. They won 0-3 but we followed the match and can say it wasn't properly earned. Overplayed by the opponent despite his lower Q (38), they found 3 goals from 3 random shoots. Let's hope they won't wake up just in the final.
