Congrats on another nice win. I watched until 3-0. Figured you had demonstrated your class at that point. Good luck in the draw for the next round. :)

Best 32 wow,
thank you seca

I think it's gonna be the last one

25 Canada New West Stampedos (goran06) Vs 30 Scotland Tartan Terrors (dandy)

he is first in Scotish premier league.

Hey that's what you said last tuesday....
you never know

Not a good draw. Dandy is a former Scotland NT manager, and very sharp. :S

I didn't look all that close, but is seems he's playing his A-squad non-trainees with his B-squad trainees (which aren't that good). You may have a shot. Dandy's focus must be on league - Suttie's won it forever.

I played him in the first round :D

OMG I won again 2-0

Now I got Slovenski champion.
I am not gonna say anything anymore :)

Nice result. :) Your two strikers played well together. Ali (keeper) also had a nice match. Surprising you didn't muster a few more shots given that territorial advantage.

Couple neat plays in this match. Around minute 8-9 one of the NWS strikers beat the keeper and was just about to tap the ball into the net when a TT defender made an unbelievable goal saving tackle. Other one that stood out was minute 64 when one TT striker pounded the ball off one post, the rebound fell straight to the other TT striker who with an open net pounded it off the other post. :P

Fun match. Good luck next week.

Reminds me of a play I had a couple weeks back...

Odzimkowski chests the ball. Post! Odzimkowski takes over possession. Post! Odzimkowski has a fantastic effort at goal. The ball hits the post.
GOOOAAAAAAL!!!
Gresley Rovers - Novotel Ottawa 2:0

It's been fun following your journey, goran. Keep the flame burning!

Tough match in a couple of minutes. I entered this cup to have some fun and tought 1 or 2 rounds and I am out but now after such a success it gets serious and kept me more focused then league games. Still I am more focused everyone gets training. It will be nice if I can get past this one to be in last 8.

First eight minutes of the match and NWS went down 0-3 but King said this is not how I am gonna end my career as a NWS player so he managed to lower it with two great strikes to 2-3. THEN a big loss he went injured 20 days (end of his jurney), NWS still managed to get 3-3 in 31st minute thanks to Garon. But that was all NWS could do, replacement was not planed if any striker went injured so none from the bench had any striker skills.

Final quote:

I am sure with King NWS would have managed minimum a tie.

Anyway a great jurney and to be in last 16 is a great success.

I almost turned the match off after 3-0 down. :P Quite an amazing comeback. Tough enough doing it once in a match tho, let alone twice. :S

Lorenzo looked great busting off the left wing. Too bad he failed to pull the trigger on a number of his trips. The King injury really was crucial.

I'd say Correia had a career day (4 goals on 8 shots). As a team, 7 for 22 is fairly impressive for an average shooting rating. When goals like that 4th one go in, you just know it's not going to be your afternoon.

Congratulations on a great run! You've done us proud. :D
