Season 126 - Are you ready?

[talisman]

Nouvion Ville FC completed a 100% first week of the season with another couple of wins, and capped that with a couple of excellent matches against a higher-Quality Association opponent.

In the League, Nouvion started off quietly but once they got into their stride they were unstoppable. After a couple of opening goals from Santiago Valdez, the home side pulled a goal back out of nothing, but then were battered into submission by the two Nouvion wingers. Valdez added another couple of goals, Maicol Guilherme matched him, but left enough time for striker Gabor Kutson to get on the scoresheet.

The Champions League opponents changed the kick-off time for the match today, but still did not attend when the rearranged match eventually started. While not having things their own way, Nouvion coasted to a 3-0 win and maximum points from their 3 Group matches. The only scare came when striker Gabor Kutson conceded a penalty early in the second half, but 'keeper Tom Martin was alert enough to make his second penalty save so far this season, pushing the shot around his right-hand post to keep the clean sheet intact.

In their Associations tournament, Dream Team were facing a generally superior outfit in terms of Quality, but fought all the way before going down 13-16. Nouvion Ville faced a +12%Q team, and in the first match at home put out a defensively-playing 4-5-1V against a sort-of Hexagon, and, despite an injury to midfielder Aaron Evans, got a goalless draw for their efforts. The opposition changed to 4-5-1V for the second match, and Nouvion reverted to their accustomed Butterfly formation, hard-defending with counter. The hosts dominated and made several personnel changes but couldn't stop the visitors running up a 5-0 score.

Good stuff, even with my final TE Record, I only ever managed that 3 times in 22 seasons, well since I quit best of luck for the rest of the season.
