This tournament really has thrown up a lot of discussion, it's massive! 100+ pages and counting!
 
And that's only with the first game having been played!

I'd say we've got the ball rolling with our game, but it's been rolling for quite a while now, everyone's interested in pretty much every result!
 
Matt's Maestros v Lippo's Losers - 1-3

Wanyama's in Pyjamas V Multiple Scoregasm FC -4-2

Blink-1 Eto'o V Mendez Marauders - DRAW - 3-3

The Angry Burritos v Gegenpressers FC - DRAW - 2-2

Spartak Bosco v Out_On_Bale - 1-5

Living on FM FC v Sunlight Sky - 6-2

PFC Sporting v Stuntcock FC - 3-5

My predictions :) I'll probably either get none right or all of them right except my game :P
 
I predict a 9-7 loss for me! :P

Will be home from work in an hour or so AW190. You ready for a goal fest?

Given my defence? Of course I am :P I expect double figures from at least one of us...
 
Just looked at the table for Group A.

Can we just have every match drawn 2-2 so i can top the group on alphabetical order please?
 
All Square in 2nd Match as Group D Gets Underway

Mkmillwall's PFC Sporting(light blue) took on Yeti01's Stuntcock FC(pink) in a very tight match up where no player truly asserted his dominance over the other.

Although Stuntcock FC had more of the ball in the opening minutes, it was PFC who would strike first. A brilliant through ball by Mesut Ozil saw Sturridge have a one on one with the keeper. His shot was well saved, but it bounced off Nigel de Jong on the way out and rolled into an empty net with only 13 minutes gone by.
As possession evened out, the first half rolled on without many chances, save for a shot by Moura that hit off the post just before the break. However,following the break and nine minutes of play, Moura whipped in a cross to an unmarked Ozil who could not finish and sent it wide across goal.
Towards the 60th minute mark, Stuntcock would finally have a threating series of chances, with van Persie and Vidal testing keeper Diego Lopez. However, it would be a mix up in the box that would allow the ball to fall to Rosicky in the 80th minute, and his shot, which took a huge deflection off of Vertonghen, sailed into the left corner of the net.
The only other chance in the match would be a long shot from PFC substitute Aubameyang after he ran about 30 meters following an Ozil through ball. However, it would end all square in a very gritty and tough match up in which not a lot of ground was give.

PFC Sporting MOTM: Mesut Ozil
Stuntcock FC MOTM: Domenico Criscito

A great game played by Yeti01, very lighthearted, didn't get to see his famous counter attacking style but his tactics really did block mine. Looking forward to the next round and the rest of the results in this round :)

Also to clarify something, Piszczek got a knock; however, if a player receives those, they can still play in the next match. It is only when a player is fully injured or gets a red card that they MUST miss the next match.

sorry for posting more than once in a row, but to be honest guys, very happy with the result as Yeti is a clear favorite in this group. Looking forward to seeing how Lewie and Yiliang do as well :) Proving all of the predictors wrong!
 
Yeah, draw is great for me in the group as 2nd fav, need to get a result vs Yeti and/or Mk to go through unless Yiliang produces a great performance.

Our match will be 11am my time/7pm his time. Be there! :)
 
Had been waiting all day to read a match report while sat at work! Haha

A draw seemed a fair result - Good work!

In that case, sorry for the poor write up ;)

Guys, it would be cool if we could get a few streams of games on Twitch, I think Lewie is setting one up for his game on Friday and I'd love to watch as many of these games as possible, and I know you hard office workers out there could use a break from the day so yea set up streams for us to view!

Since AW190 is still missing, anyone up for doing a test-game, so that I can test if twitch works?
 
Right guys, I'm home now and my match with Znik will be in a couple of minutes (I have no experience on twitch so don't expect any streams from me, sorry :(
