Perfect Tactics win 6-4 on aggregate


WE DID IT!!!

The 3 words to describe this match because we deserved to go through. Having lost the first leg to a lucky goal, we needed a bit of our own luck and come from behind to win by 2 goals or more. We did just that and we did it in style. We had most of the chances early in the game and you could sense a goal was coming. We were worried that our opponents would randomly score out of no where but it was Perfect Tactics who took the lead today. Nascimento trying a long range strike which flew into the top corner. It was 0-1 but we needed more. Suddenly the tide was turning and we were well on top, Nascimento feeding Van der Zande who tapped in an easy shot for 0-2. That would be enough for us but any goal from our opponents and they would win on away goals. Silly made it 0-3 shortly after, a long range strike finding the back of the net via a deflection but we don't care, we had a 3 goal advantage and 2 on aggregate and protection against the away goal. We kept the same formation in the 2nd half because it was working. However monte fc got a goal back from a counter attack, Zaini's shot too hot to handle for our defenders and it gave them a route back into the game. Barrachana then broke free of the defence and almost made it 2-3 but his shot went over. That was the turning point of the game, our opponents goalkeeper got injured and we grabbed a 4th goal through Zenzizenzike and killed off our opponents. They had a chance right at the end which missed the target.

Into the next round!

Goals: Nascimento (23'), Van der Zande (27'), Silly (38'), Zaini (53') Zenzizenzike (74')
Well, thats a good turn around for Perfect Tactics and you survive elimination from the RR Cup... Which especially in the early stages is what we need to do to have any chance of winning the competition. We play our 2nd leg in 3 hours, but we lead 3-0 so there is no threat of us going out. We will also be in the next round draw.
