Subject: NT vs Finland

On Saturday we face Finland in a crucial match.

We need to win to set ourselves up for an easy qualification from our WC group:

USA
Finland (Suomi)
Turkey
Austria (Österreich)

I don't see any reason why we shouldn't be able to win all of our matches, but it could be close in some games.

you better not screw this up. our fate is in your hands...

No pressure then. lol

you can do it Phil!

I have beaten Finns in 2 games from 3 with much weaker NZ, so shouldn`t be a problem for you. No pressure:)

However you are too predictable. I can tell now what tactic you will use. But of course it doesn`t matter, that wouldn`t help the Finns though.

If a tactic is hard to beat then you have to improve on it to win in most occassions unless by fluke the other side has a red card nightmare or numerous injuries. ;)

Interesting you should say that, send me a mail and tell me what tactic I will use......I haven't decided myself yet!

i vote for the one that makes us win 4-0

Great, you mind creating it too?

I'm not sure its currently in my tactic options ;-)

A nice 6-2 win to start off the campaign, couldn't have asked for much more!

close to my 4-0 victory. at least you kept the spread.

haha nice high line of defense that forced 8 penalties of offsides.

nice win Phil!

I love American football talk. :)

You must mean soccer, American football is a whole different sport ;-)

To you and me its Football, always has been and always will be, but these guys yes it is Soccer to them. Its funny though when you hear their commentators talking about zones etc. Its in the Box. :)

shhh go away. I do refer to "soccer" as football anyways.

apparently I just tend to mix the English/American terminologies together. =)
