HTC - Swift boys: VIDEO OF THE GAME

Part 1





Part 2




Part 3




Part 4

High Tech Campus - Swift boys

Relaxed game. 9 - 1

This game was the easiest so far. We managed to score very soon. Andre made one of the goals of the year ;) and from then on, the game was easier. They played with no substitutions and soon they were tired. Almost no pressing from them when we lost the ball we could quickly recover it.

US: Today we didn’t play bad, however the other team cooperated on that giving us quite some spaces. Andre scored 4 goals.

THEM: They aren’t bad but their last defender (chuncky guy) didn’t run much. They almost never press us and they let us play. Their best player is their stricker. Thin and skilful guy that moves well.

High Tech Campus - TOB 1

We gave the match away. 2-3

A big shame. We had many more chances but we let them play, we were really soft in the pressing and did not follow in defense. All in all we had way more chances than them.

We were wining 2-1 and in a counter attack they equalized, 2-2. When the game is about to finish, we lose a ball 2 meters from our own area, their stricker shoots and the ball hits two legs before it goes in. They shot 3 times and score 3 goals. It is proven that in this category, teams do not need control of the ball or many chances to win the game.

High Tech Campus - Ballast Nedam Bouw

Our first victory 5-3

Nice team. The keeper is good and the striker moves a lot.

We started loosing 2-0, then we made 3-2, then they equalized, 3-3. Almost at the end Jelmer hits their crazy goalkeeper in the forehead. Two minutes later Carlos shoots with no angle and the ball enter between the legs of the keeper. And two minutes for the end of the game, Danielle shoots from far and the keeper doesn’t see it. 5-3. It was more difficult than what the score says.

Digo was back!.

The worst thing was the knee injury of Gerard, which apparently is pretty serious. Good luck with it man.

High Tech Campus- FUTSAL PLANET.NL

4-4. We gave away two points.

I didn't go to this game so the little I can say is what I got from few of you.

We started wining 2-0, then 3-1 and everything look under control but in two consecutive mistakes in defense we got two goals, so 3-3. The situation was even worse when they scored the 3-4, again in a big mistake in defense that apparently heat up the atmosphere.

Luckily we manage to equalize near to the end of the game. 4-4, one point for us.

THEM: Not bad but nothing impressive either, given the circumstances we could and should have won this game.

US: Gareth was clearly the MVP with two great goals and very committed in defense.

It seems to be clear that we should have won this game. We managed to be wining 3-1 and attacking pretty well and still we almost lost it. We should learn from this.

We have to be way more aggressive in defense and manage better the possession of the ball.

High Tech Campus - Untadilati

7-1. Welcome to first division.

Today we showed up with 5 players, two of them; new ones, we sucked physically and tactically, we scored an own goal and we barely moved. We didn't play that badly since 3rd division. Well, in 3rd division it could have been ok even with that performance... the lesson of the day is that, if we play like this now, we take home a 7-1. The biggest defeat so far since we formed Ragtag Rebels.
All in all it was kind of ok during the first half. We gave away 2 goals but we were not that exposed. We reached the break 2-0 down. Right at the start of the second half David scores the 2-1 and for a minute it seems that we may do something. However immediately they scored 2 goals, 4-1 was apparently too much so we lower the arms, stopped running and then received 3 more goals. Severe punishment.

US: Nothing to be mentioned. That's how bad it was. Many positional mistakes, not serious in defense, not following our guy, not moving into spaces, unbalanced distribution on the pitch... a big disaster.

THEM: They move the hell of a lot. Not really quickly but constantly. In defense, as long as we follow them we have a chance, but we need substitutions to be able to do that.

Linesman: Digo and Gerard
Goals: David

2011-2012

It is time now to talk about the new season (already started ;)).

First big change: we have a sponsor that gives a remarkable contribution so in exchange we have renamed the team as High Tech Campus (I).

Also important to mention that, due to his move to Brussels, Francesco will no longer be in our team unless very exceptional occasions. No need to mention that we will miss him very much.

Last but not least, 3 new players this season. Gerard, Luca and Danielle. Welcome guys!!.
