Strong match of our guys today against Belarus. Certainly we got a goal in minute 90 but we managed to score five times the 89 minutes before. So we have a deserved win. I'm glad the start was okay and hopefully we can do so for the next couple of weeks.
Please send me the skills of your U21-player when you have one. Doesn't matter if you think they are not worth playing U21. It's my job to check this. ;)

This week we play against Moldova U21 wich is definitely a stronger oponnent then Belarus. Actually they're 33d of the world ranking, we are number 68. We play with U20 with maximum two 21 yo players. They have really strong strikers so hopefully or defense is strong enough for them. So the aim is to keep as long as possible the zero at our goal and to hope for a lucky punch of our strikers. So please keep your fingers crossed.

Moldova was to strong for us today. The longer the match the weaker was our team. They certainly didn't manage to be more offensively and to be dangerously. Probably I should have tried a one-striker-tactics but I wanted to have some space in the offense. Silly faults of our backs and our keeper were enough to let them score four times. Sorry guys.

Today we're facing Latvjia U21 wich are the current number 49 of the world. After our expected loss against Moldova we're number 68. So the difference is not that great compared to the last weeks match but they definitely have the stronger players. And they have 40 unlike us. I prepared a new tactics - hopefully it works.

Good luck

Thanks. Unfortunately we hadn't the luck we needed to win. In my opinion Latvjia was better but we created the better chances. 12:12 shots on goal but certainly a 2:3. Tons of one versus one chances but not that many goals like our oponnent scored.
Please update your players by sending me their skills per PM. Cheers!

Good Collunder

Thank you. :-)

We're gonna face Singapore U21. We both play with a U20 team.
It was difficult to find a fiveth defender to sit on the bench and I've only found Harold Evans who played his last match on october 3. Hopefully our defenders don't get injured. Hopefully the other players as well. Helguera is our second keeper. Nearly the same like with Evans - he certainly doesn't play at his hungarian team.

So here's the lineup for the match.
1 Andy Purrunga GK
2 José Pablo García DEF
3 Manuel Moya DEF
4 Minor Anariba DEF
5 Rodimiro Almanza DEF
6 Anselmo Solano MID
7 Marín Almendares MID
8 Franklin Piña MID
9 Luís Alberto Lopez MID
10 Eliseo Almendra ATT
11 Mariano Amighetti ATT

12 Jafet Helguera GK
13 Harold Evans DEF
14 Rodrigo Villagra MID
15 Emilio Arechavaleta ATT
16 James Anduray ATT

Mariano Amighetti is a newcomer and I'm curious how he will perform. Singapore has with S.D. Hup a world class striker with 20 years. Luckily he has a red card so he will only be able to shout from the bench. Last week Singapore lost against Belarus by 3:0 - we've won against Belarus three weeks ago by 5:1 so we should be the favorite in that match. Nothing but a win would be a disappointment.

Today we're gonna play against Iceland U21. We will field our best team and hopefully our certainly not that strong defense is able to keep our box clean. Iceland is a bit above us in the world ranking but the players seem to be similar. Maybe we can surprise the whole world. ;)
Here you can watch the match. Have fun!

Deserved win for our boys. It could have been much higher. The vikings managed to make some important saves. Nevertheless we've won and I'm glad.
Next week we'll play against Jamaica U21. They are current number 79 compared to our place 72. So I expect a close match with some advantages on our side. I'm gonna ask if we're playing U20 instead of U21.

So we're playing with the U20 team next week plus two U21 players. I'll keep you informed for friday.
Have a nice weekend!

Tonight we're playing against Venezela U21. Everything but a loss would be a great surprise. Venezuela U21 played at the world cup this season and ended third in the group by winning against Austria and losses against Finland and Swizzerland. Swizzerland and Finland are both still in the tournament (kicking out Brasil and Czech republic) so the tight losses against that two teams show that Venezuela U21 ist not far behind the real strong teams in the world.
But who knows...

Last week we had the expected loss. But after watching that match we must say that a draw would have been okay. If our striker hit the goal and not only the bar... Venezuela U21 had a 10 points higher rating but we were not that much worse then them.
Today we play agains China U21. It's a U20 match and as written above I really hope our defense doesn't get injured and so our keeper. Our midfield is really strong and I hope they can put some pressure on the chinese defense.
