This pretty much sums up NK's troubles today. Their number 22, especially, is a very skilled player who could beat one or two players, but the third or fourth tackle would get him. The pitch was certainly not conducive to pretty passing play, but NK needed to move the ball around more in the final third. At the other end, NK threw everything forward after the third goal, and we had a lot of odd-man rushes that we should've done much better with, including a 6-on-2 surge near the end. However, our control would let us down and we really didn't trouble FCBytca nearly as much as we should have. NK's sweeper was outstanding, and did well to break up several plays where he was outnumbered, although he did have a bit of help from a certain canineit was pretty even the whole game, the only difference was that you scored on the opportunities given and we didn't, plus we decided that its not important to shoot on your net and instead dribble around the box with our head down hoping for the best.
Shitty. At least it sounds like they had the decency to let you know ahead of time rather than making you head out to the pitch and stand around for awhile.C-lects forfeited the game to us today.
dpr 2 westvan 1
i wasnt at the game, but heard it was tightly contested with Westvan going up early, dpr tying before half and taking the lead for good mid-way through the 2nd half... should set us up for a great battle with Bombastic next wkd for first overall...
I won't talk about the field, I will not talk about the ref nor about Bosna. What I will say is that this is a very frustrating year. With 18 guys signed all we could muster for kickoff was 9 guys. We then get 2 goals in 10mins and narrowly miss out on another one. We get our 2 players on the field and then get a 12th before halftime but before that we have one of our mids pull up with a tweaked hamstring. Unfortunately the stronger numbers did not translate into any advantage. Despite the same opposition sitting in front ouf us that we scored 2 quick goals on, we stopped playing as a team save for a few possesions here and there. Some subs were really needed and there were none to be had so the B-Movie that was unfolding on our side of the pitch continued. This is the worst showing for the boys in Blue in a very long while. With promotion not even a question on the table it times to earn some respect with some hard work and comittment that will need to see more than 5guys out to a training session. Rant over...Bosna 3 Norvans JB 2
