It was a nice game. To be honest I thought we were going to be more out of focus but luckily I was wrong. We didn't play brilliantly but we controlled the game.
We started scoring after 10min, header goal from David at Digo's pass. After that we continued controlling although they were pressing from time to time. However we still got quite some chances.
The second half started pretty much the same way. Control and chances mainly from us but no goal... so we ended up paying for our generosity. One counter attack from their last guy, nice pass and goal. 1-1.
Then we got a bit nervous and made a few mistakes but didn't loose focus. They attacked more and even David could have seen a green card after a tackle, but it didn't happen. At this point the match was quite even.
Luckily in the middle of this a long shot from David came in, 2-1.
Then, and after couple of mistakes in their organization they got nervous and started a fight among them first and later with the referee.
Five min before the end of the match they saw 2 green cards (the first one pretty clear: Flikker op! at the face of the referee).
Then they were 2 players plus the keeper and they gave up. Francesco killer instinct could not be stopped and he scored 3-1 with the keeper just looking at him.
One minute later the keeper even went off the goal and Andre lost his virginity 4-1!.
We decided not to pass the midfield until the end of the game .
US: Not a brilliant game but somehow correct. We didn't move a lot in attack and we gave up several nice moves of Carlos because we just did not follow him.
Stefan was the goalie but he didn't have much work today, nice defense then.
Thijs played his first game with us and he was very helpful. Strong in defense and moving well. Thanks dude and welcome to the team!!.
THEM: Nice team that could have ruined us the night when we were 1-1. Their best move is to pass to one wing and then first touch to the guy coming in, if we don't follow our pair we are dead. Their weakest point is that they are not organized, specially in defense. They do crazy substitutions even when we are attacking.
The keeper plays well the ball which makes the pressure a bit more difficult. Their best player today was the last guy, nice play maker. He is short and a bit chunky but freaking skillful and with a leading attitude.
Luckily for us today they didn't have the black guy that plays as striker, it would have been more difficult then.
I didn't forget that we are still leading with 4 points over the second but let's pay attention to the stands when we have 3 games to go. Next week Hunter Boys.
