Subject: »[U21]Kypros U21 National Team

You are right - Nabi was really wonderful this time :) I liked the performance of every our player this time. Only Somek has taken his worse while this time. But still he has made one nice goal for us :)

GG another good victory for Kypros. In this game Pounas was more offensive, and also he miss a lot of passes :I. btw his +1 in defense is notorius :)

You are right, that little change was clearly visible :) I expected better passes from him but it wasn't that bad :)

We've got in the Top-70 U21 teams! :) Currently we are at the position 68. But for the 64th position we are still missing almost 100 ranking points...

damn this is race with time, we won almost everything this season (with much stronger opponents), but still it is not enough :(
today we received more points today than i expected but still we need to get at least 100points in just 2 matches



64 Pilipinas U21 1368.21
65 El Salvador U21 1334.57
66 Guatemala U21 1323.02
67 Nippon U21 1318.46
68 Kypros U21 1269.59

It may well be the match with Luxembourg that will cost us that position... You know if we had won that match we would have been 70 points higher now...

Nice game, important victory. M.O.M of this game on Ayiomamitis and Altuner, the ATT position have a good performance today. Bad game of Suomi strikers

I want to see what happened when the best U-21 MID play again Pounas (#7vs7).

Yes, it was pretty nice name. I agree with you that Ayiomamitis was really great this time :) But I liked expecially the performance of Bayramoglu. You know I was mostly watching Neofytou and Bayramoglu - two defenders for the World Cup qualification... Myros has disappointed me a bit but Bayramoglu was really great :)

I wouldn't say it was that bad performance of Finnish strikers - they were just unlucky ;) We made a lot of last minute saves.

That comparison of Pounas and Viitakangas was really interesting ;)

our biggest problem today was defensive midfielder position .. that was real pain. Pounas was invisible, they passed ball from left to right and right to strikers and he was running here and there and he was always late. I dont see it as problem of specific player, but something in tactics were wrong.

Best player of match was definitely Ayiomamitis, he showed he is pretty good not only as winger, that his goal was really great. Also Im happy with very good performance of Bayramoglu, like ostulc i have noticed he was really good today, maybe close to the best player of match. Also Neofytou was great today and they both will be very important for us in next season.

Yeah Pounas sucks in that game but also they have two amazing 19 MIDs (Martti Viitakangas 71.50, - Nicky Pounas 68.25, Eetu Pärssinen 67.25). +1 with you, maybe a extra help in the defensive mid role was better. In any case we have the victory :D. 8 game without losing any points... amazing :).

Match of the season and f@@k i wont be here to watch it...i am going to the village without internet...anw i hope ostulc plans will work and we reach 64 th place before WCQ...

That's a pity... But you will see it later :) I hope that it will go all right. But our opponent is pretty strong in the U20 generation and we will have a tough match. I haven't published anything yet because I am still undecided :(

Please check the association :)

hmm really great U20 against U21 :-(

Few days ago, I have even reminded Guatemalan coach that we will play current 19yo generation (that means 20yo players after update) :(

Maybe he just didn'd want to. We would run over them..

In such case it would be an equal match... But it's not the case as their manager has written me that he wants to play with those players too.
