Cup Round 1

9-0 cruise. 8 different goal scorers.

 

won 8-0, got a bot in round 2 so thats solid....

 

Cruised to a 12-0 win.

AOW (WC rating) produced 8 of 10 normal chances on the flanks. Threw in a couple SE's to top things off.

 

Won 11-0 and got another bot.

 

Forgot to set my line up for the first match so the first teamers played. Got a 9-0 victory. The team for this week just got their team a few days ago.

 

Beat some bot team 9-0 and now I'm in the second round. Playing someone from DVI and looking at his past two line ups, I should win.

 

Yikes, only beat an original bot 4-1.


Oops, scored 2 goals in the last minute to win 6-1.

 

6-0 win over a human. Onto round 3.

 

Anyone have any insight into how I (Depew Village 226227) can beat this guy (Mullica FC 70498)?

I have a slight edge in midfield if he sticks with the same line-up. But, none of my attack ratings are better than his defense, and one of my defense ratings is behind his attack by a bit.

Questions:
Should I play 4-5-1 and pack D on his strong side?
Should I gamble by buying a monster IM and try to take as much poss. as possible?
What's more important to my success?
- A strong defending wing back, or a strong PM CB toward attack for midfield boost?
- A strong PM WTM, or a strong defensive winger?

Thanks in advance. I'd like to get past Rd. 3 for the first time ever. [Then again, I shouldn't have sold my full-grown IM trainees. ]

 

won 9-nil again. On to round 3 where I face a fellow Dv opponent.

 

I went on a bit of a shopping spree, and my opponent finally inserted some first teamers.

I'm down 1-0 and have conceded 51% of the possession. Not to bad.

25 minutes left. I just need a break!

 

I got a break tonight, when my 2 WB's each scored a goal in the final 10 minutes to sneak away with a 3-2 win.

 

Lost. 1-0

49-51 poss. in first half.
50-50 in 2nd.

 

another easy win with a pic for my second team. I'm liking these teams I get to play while in II.

 

i hope you have to play kathie next and lose

 

Won 5-1 as the team I played switched users so I think it was a newbie. Into the fourth round for the first time and playing a DIV team.

 

as you know I was following the potential cupset with anticipation

6-0 win for me, another DVI team in the 4th round so another PIC rollover.

 

Golly GEE. Thanks for the Support!!!

That is IT for my back-up MF. Starters until I do get dumped.

 

I play a former series mate of mine in the next round. runs a 5-3-2 CA with 1 IM. My second team should still beat him with another pic...

 

Maybe next round, or maybe I'll get to beat you into a pulp in the next round.
