Asunto: National Team

Just saw the match as I'm now back. Slightly disappointed not to walk away with the win, we created several chances and the defensive scramble which led to their goal could have gone either way really. The campaign isn't over yet, we have a few options left and can still sneak 2nd spot if Mexico lose to Argentina and don't beat Bulgaria (that's the smallest hope).

Other than that, we need to win our next game by as big as possible and then start looking at what we have to do against Colombia to not only get 3rd spot but qualify also. The 2 points we dropped against Bulgaria are hurting badly now, but sokker keeps having fun in teasing our national side, by not closing the door.

Well 30min left til our competition match team takes the field. Deliberately left vacancies on the bench so everyone who entered gets a player playing for them at some stage. Could backfire but hopefully it won't be too costly if at all. I think I've slotted virtually everyone's first preference in, so it should be an interesting game.

Could be anything, like last season where we got beaten by a small nation, although I'm confident we'll be fine for this one.

Hope everyone enjoys it and hope the game remains injury free :).

It can't go wrong with Maras on the board. Anyway, he is kinda unlucky ;) first game - 0:4 with Bulgaria, then 1:3 with Makedonija...at least not Singapore, please! ;-)

haha ok that's it Maras is officially off the team :p, although they do say 3rd time lucky for a reason :).

Yeah. We'll see :)

btw, if you don't know what to do right now, you might watch Polska-Lietuva...my tactic, squad made only from 30+yo old NT stars...I had to use 3 defs, 2CMs, 1 winger and 4 strikers in first team, with many of them without form...I thought it will be much worse ;)

haha it was looking bad earlier, but it ended up sorting itself nicely :D.

Yeh, the oldies got some doping and started to play better ;)

I'm sure my boy will come to the rescue this time... I felt the previous one had let down the team last year... should be funny to watch

Started :)

Goal :)

Strikers are doing well. :)

4:0, marvellous. I like the way the mids play, the stand near eachother and make short passes to eachother, and then, suddenly poof - long ball forward :)

Hahah O'Neill, wow! :D

Maras! Yeah :D

biased :)

Will it be 10? ;-)
