Ragtag Rebels - High Tech Campus

(27-01-11)

6-2. Carlos's show

We got the revenge from our previous draw (2-2) against this team. We started winning pretty early. A stupid ball lost from the defense in midfield and goal(Andre??). Later a very hard pressure from Carlos to the keeper, he gets the ball and with almost no angle he scores. Third goal, keeper out of the area losses another stupid ball and Carlos scores with a chip over him, very stylish.
Some other goals I already forgot (please help me out in the comments) and we reached the break leading 5-0.

Today we only have one substitute and that caused the mess at the beginning of the second half. Actually it was a chaos. We started with 4 strikers on the field and only one defender (Digo). So indeed we started with an unbalanced distribution, then also we got too relaxed due to the score (mistake we didn't do in the previous game). If that wasn't enough, on top of that they attacked with everything and pressed very hard. So... they scored two goals very soon they got really motivated. Later with 2 defenders on the field (Digo and David) the chaos was less chaos and we could control the possession a bit more. That bit of pause eventually made us score one last goal.

US: Funny guy, Carlos. He had to be linesman in the second half so he started pressing like crazy and being a real pain in the ass for their keeper and their last defender. I guess for them was like having TAZ around.

It was definitely a great (half)game from him recovering the ball, scoring and passing, great game man!.
For the rest of us also a nice first half against a team that caused us problems in the first game of the season (although that game was bit unfair in my opinion). Very solid in defense. Almost no chances for them.
Second half: Total chaos, we must learn from this. We should be more mature and don't let this situation to happen, react quicker and take control of the situation.
All and all, it wasn't that bad, it took us a while but we corrected it and get the control back.

THEM: What can I say, their keeper today had Taz in front and that must be very annoying ;). We covered well the empty spaces were Bart is more dangerous so they couldn't do much.
They didn't play bad but made very lethal mistakes.

Linesman: Jelmer and Carlos
Goals: Carlos(2), Francesco?, Andre?, Jelmer?.... help me out.
