Subject: [NT]Belgie vs Espana

Well...one of the best games of this season :) I've prepared something special for Brana :))

We're using first team of course :) Unfortunately Gaever has only excellent form, so he will stay on bench...

As far as I remember we've changed places with Spain recently, taking their 4th position in World ranking - I hope it will stay like this :D

We have 60pts loss to Italy, who is playing Brasil - so we can catch up a bit.

I've seen one hm...interesting info :p
Belgie played against Spain 6 times...and always lost :/ Doesn't sound good but well, it would be something to beat this winning run of Spain :D

Don't get too angry if we lose the game, I'm still testing :) it's definitely not 'my Belgie' yet :)
Top teams, details and luck will decide...just hope Deroo does better than in my league...he has great scoring ratio...2 goals, 25 shots this season...:/

It's all about getting him in the right position :p

Good luck today, I'm sure we'll kick Spain's *ss.

can you send me the skills of that gk i passed you recently. Just curious about it :p
Good luck :)

strange tactic indeed borkos

defense sucks

idd

and our strikers fail

little hope remaining, though we scored a goal, yay

omg at 4th goal of spain

gameover

how unlucky can you be :/ I've never had such good shots/goal ration from that kind of wide strikers...

our two SUPERDIVINE strikers fail even simplest shots...

Well it wasn't a good game :/
The tactic failed mostly because I expected a winger from Spain...and I though that they will be afraid to use high defence - because of it Beken was useless...:/

Anyway, we deserved to score more...so many head shots from 5-7m...:/
And Spains goals for 3:0 and 4:1 were odd :/

I didn't like the tactic. Our one striker stood so wide, often he had to pass several defenders before a shot at goal could be made. Also, an awkward amount of backpasses that weren't necessary and often dangerous to us. (like the leading up to first shot at goal by the spanish).

Well I hoped for some space in the place were the striker was positioned...the tactic would've worked ok if Espana played with normal defence, but they played with very high one :/ The idea was to make passes to Beken. When he had the ball, whole Spanish defence moved to left side and the winger was alone. But because of the high defence, often he didn't have enough time to pass the ball...
