Season 41

[tongly45]

Last 3 seasons of T11, I won 3 league titles, 1 CL title and no RR Cups. Going to win another league and CL...

14 player in a league, 32 in CL and 128 in the Cup. moreover, the cup the team quality is about the same as your team . I think posibility cup win less than 1/5 in champions league and less than 1/10 in league.

LEAGUE ROUND 21

July Fourth 4-0 Mateo F.C.

July Fourth 119.3 dandelion - Mateo 107.2 4-2-2-2 Hexagon

This was the first game against 2 of the inactives in our league and we would of expected nothing but an easy win for July Fourth, However the first half was frustrating for us as Michu had a few chances on goal in the first half and really should of put them away by his standards, McNamara had a couple of shots blocked and Papaleo setup Ramirez and he should of scored but he put it wide and we went into the dressing room at HT @ 0-0. We were starting to think with our current poor form and not scored a goal for quite sometime now that the unthinkable could happen and that a result other than a July Fourth win was possible. When we got out there the Mateo defence gave away a free kick and Hardy stepped up to take it and it flew over the wall and into the back of the net and it was relief all around Islington Park. Finally we were infront and indeed it caused the floodgates to open here for July Fourth, Pietropaolo had a shot blocked before another free-kick was won and Hardy's effort this time was saved for a corner which was crossed in for Papaleo to header in to make sure of the win and a few minutes later Petersen scored with a well struck strike, Pietropaolo was 1v1 against the keeper but passed it to Papaleo to smash it in for a brace and Papaleo did try to break clear of the defence to try and get a shot on target for the hatrick but Langer managed to get the tackle in.

Goals: Hardy (49) Papaleo (57,83) Petersen (61) MOTM: Papaleo.

Team Talk: That was an important win for us in the end but at HT there was that possibility of a upset on the cards with it being 0-0 but we were delighted once we got the goals and this keeps us 2 points ahead of nakompathom who still seem to keep winning all the time.

EDIT: Batigo United result is just came in and they won 3-2, but it means we have narrowed the GD down to just 8 goals now before our game against agger tomorrow where we would expect to win by around 10 goals. So status quo once again.

MATCHREPORT (DAY 19-22) - BALKAN BOYZ (Sz. 6 / Lvl6)

Good news: The Balkan Boyz managed to take two importans wins today, one in the League and one in the CL!

League: We beat the Israeli "RYY HO" (Q52,9) at home with 2 - 1. Managed to score twice before going to end half (Lorik Cana 18'min and Miroslav Stevanović 22'min, both assisted by Edin Džeko) . The guests got a "cheap" penalty the last quarter after a foul made by N.Vidić. We are now 9p clear and could secure the league title in the 23th round. This league title will probably be considered as the most prestigious since we fought and battled against 6 T-buyers (with 5-7* players in their squads) from the beginning to the end!


Champ. League: We beat the former league opposition, the Israeli team "Iztik Yan" (Q46,6) away with 1 - 3. Edin Džeko scored a hattrick and we are now 1 step closer a CL final! The return will be played on Wednesday and held on "Balkan Boyz Stadium". Kick off is set at 20:21CET. Our opposition could be the Oman team "something something FC" (Q49,2) or the English team "Speeders FC" (Q48,7). Unfortunately both T-buyers.

Anyway, here is song before logging off ....



Over&Out!

Won important league match with the 1st position manager... now I have same points as the 1st position manager but 8 goals less than him ... he used an asymmetrical formation to stop me to get the victory, but I won ...

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL PREVIEW

July Fourth vs vito6a Tonight
vito6a vs July Fourth Wednesday

July Fourth 119.3 - vito6a 116.9

This is got to be up there with the biggest matches i've played in T11 and vito6a are a team of scouts, although it doesn't look like they have always been a scout team because they have actually never won the champions league before but this season they are serious challengers for the title just as much as we are, we have to be at our very best over 2 legs and this tie won't be considered over until the final whistle is blown because on a their day vito6a are the type of team that can win against us. We have to make sure that this doesn't happen here as we are looking to put right our disappointment of last seasons tournament. They have a dangerous 7* striker Qeriqi who is also a free-kick specialist, however his form is not that great with only just 5 goals from 16 games, expect Hadadifar to be a threat with being a shadow striker AMC and like Wardley massive their 2 central midfielders are corner takers. Cesar Figueiredo from the left side of midfield is dangerous with 12 goals this season. vito6a's manager has been having a end of season squad clear out it seems and he has reduced his squad to the minimum 14 players after selling a defender this afternoon.

Both teams have nobody suspended for the first leg and July Fourth have central midfielders Diamond and Stuart on a yellow while vito6a have a number of players on a yellow card.



Odds to qualify: July Fourth 4/7, Vito6a 11/8

1st Leg Odds: July Fourth 8/15, draw 9/4, vito6a 4/1
2nd Leg Odds: vito6a 11/8, draw 2/1, July Fourth 15/8

Hadadifar 10/1
Diamond 14/1
Stuart 14/1

Goals: U/O 2.5: U 5/6 O 10/11
BTTS: Yes EVS No 5/6

OTHER SEMI-FINAL: aejn vs gunners

aejn 114.8 - gunners 110.4

Slight favourites to win the competition because of the easier draw of the semi-final and not knowing the identity of their possible finalist face a determined and gritty rank outsiders gunners in the first leg at home and should be fully expected to win tonight and send them on the way to face final when they will become underdogs should they face July Fourth, but if they face vito6a they could well be the favourites to win because they are higher than vito6a in the league table, gunners however are 4th in their league and fighting for the right to be in next seasons competition. There is a small possibility of a all-bulgarian final if gunners and vito6a qualify.

Odds to Qualify: aejn 2/7, gunners 11/4.

[Shadow]

Today score 2/2.

League:





Very boring game but the goal is accomplished

CL:





Won first game in CL but with a cost of two injuries.



Good news for our next game is that his striker is suspended

[fictionchris]

After a couple of bad results the past few weeks I changed my orders back to a more conservative style and upped my win bonus to 5K.
Yesterday and today's matches played out very well for me as a result. I'm now top of the league again by 3pts.

[reddeviljohn]

Won C/L 3-2 after being 0-2 scored 2 goals in last 6 mins. opponent played 4-3W-1-2 so I played 4-1-3N-2 and changed to 4-3N-1-2 and then 4-2N-1-3 so looks like I got original set up wrong any suggestions for the return leg?
