Match day 14.

[Dell19]

At half time:

quote:A scorching day at Power_House Arena, where 7000 spectators were in place for today´s match. Power_House had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Zickus - Arnal, Treacy, Consolas, Kobæk Larsen - Mitroi, Galvin, Rochester, Valenzuela - Ibbotson, Fear.

Wartham started off with a 3-4-3 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Ioannidis - Budd, Matthews, Edwards - Laporte, Singh, Moulin, Pelgrims - Wallace, Smets, Ryan.

Wartham seemed to prefer attacking in the middle. Some beautiful plays on the left side of the field resulted in a 3rd minute goal by Simeon Fear for Power_House, putting them ahead 1 - 0. The referee showed Power_Houses Paul Rochester the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. The visitors almost came back with an equaliser in the 12th minute after a good combination down the middle, but as Guy Smets was to put closure on the raid he couldn´t deliver a shot hard enough to seriously challenge the keeper. The visitors almost came back with an equaliser in the 18:th minute after a good combination down the middle, but as Cain Wallace was to put closure on the raid he couldn´t deliver a shot hard enough to seriously challenge the keeper. A really bad tackle inside the penalty area in the 31st minute gave the referee no other choice but to award visiting Wartham the penalty shot. Cain Wallace knocked home 1 - 1. In the games 37:th minute Power_House´s Franz Kobæk Larsen fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee booked Franz Kobæk Larsen for taking a dive. Wartham made a substitution in the 39:th minute. Jon Edwards limped off the field and was replaced by Brendan Gietelink. Some beautiful plays on the left side of the field resulted in a 39:th minute goal by Tim Ibbotson for Power_House, putting them ahead 2 - 1. The teams went for a half-time break at 2 - 1. Wartham held the ball, with a clear 58 percent possession rate.

I hope I'm not going to regret those two missed chances.

[Dell19]

3-3 :\

We finished second because of that point so I'm happy about that but it was about the worst possible way to finish second after having four chances to win and having 58% and then 60% of the possession. At least we only had one injury and not to a player who was playing whilst injured.

The home side put themselves ahead 1 - 0 in the 5:th by a breakthrough from Stephen Taylor, who unaided came in out of the right wing hooking the ball over the visitors keeper. Charley Brown sprinted between the opposing defenders after 17 minutes, but the keeper deflected Dylan McGennis's shot. Johan Edenbrant showed why he is feared on the counterattack, scoring for Kiwiana in the 19:th minute to make the score 1 - 1. In the to 38:th minute a very unfortunate collision in the home teams penalty area led to Manglers´s David Spreadbury being carried off the pitch and replaced by Hogan Radley. Manglers had a good opportunity to take the lead as Stephen Taylor came up the left side, but he struck the ball weakly and it went straight into the arms of Håkan Olsson. Kiwiana took the lead in the games 40:th minute with 1 - 2 after some elegant plays down the middle. Chad Daugherty was the scorer. The teams went for a half-time break at 1 - 2.

Aristocats clearly had decided to counter-attack when they could, using their talent for it. Overasseltse-boys had a good opportunity to score the lead goal but the home team goaltender Armando Pinto saved Tom Thuring´s shot headed for the top corner. A long pass from the defense line of Aristocats resulted in a counterattack that set Wesley Zengers free in the enemy central penalty box, but his finish went high. The counterattacks of Aristocats were deadly and 27 minutes into the game, Wesley Zengers got a long pass from the right flank, making 1 - 0. Aristocats´s Wesley Zengers left the field after 27 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was Renato Dominkovic. The referee showed Aristocatss Daniel Ajello the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge.

Kept the leagueleaders at 1-1 and am very happy with that. He may even have lost autopromotion now! For me, this point means 3rd place and for a first season in 6th class that is mighty fine!

Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Santa Fey Arena saw a crowd turnout of 7000. Santa had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Arzens - Brommer, Heijster, van Osch - Bennebroek, Hoogweg , Odyak, Mouwen, Mazilu - Brummelhuis, Antkowicz.

Snaken had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Durzyñski - Meesen, Öztürk, Flores D'Arcais - Malmholt, Lucado, Hintermayr, Balyon, Irvine - Harpaz, Böõr.

Santa mostly ignored the flanks in favour of attacks in the middle. Teun Brummelhuis gave his Santa the lead with 1 - 0, as he successfully challenged both the guests central defenders, then placed the ball unreachably at the goaltenders right post. 20 minutes into the game Snaken´s Florian Lucado found a gap in the home sides central defense scoring to make it 1 - 1. Snaken took the lead in the games 25:th minute with 1 - 2 after some elegant plays down the middle. Florian Lucado was the scorer. The teams went for a half-time break at 1 - 2. Snaken held the ball, with a clear 58 percent possession rate.

Snaken´s Sören Malmholt received a play slashing through the home side´s defense in the 49:th minute, chipping it past the keeper scoring 1 - 3. The home crowd was not pleased with that one. Some fine manouvering on the left lead to an 58:th minute Snaken goal, making it 1 - 4. Baldemar Hintermayr was noted down as the scorer. After this Snaken lowered the tempo in order to concentrate on their defensive efforts. After the ball got lifted in from the left Wilm Meesen was on his own in the home side´s penalty area 69 minutes into the game, and should have scored, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. In the game's 71st minute Santa´s Virgil Arzens limped slightly after a late challenge, but he was able to continue. Hadar Harpaz came close to extending the visitors lead as he, completely unmarked in front of the goal, lifted a ball over Virgil Arzens, hitting the bar. In the 80:th minute Santas Xander Bennebroek received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Snaken, bringing the final ball possession rate to 70 percent, dominated the battle.

Santa´s best player was Igor van Osch. However, Teun Brummelhuis made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Snaken player was without a doubt Marcin Durzyñski. However, Sören Malmholt made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 4.

A great end to a great season, while new signing Soren Malmholt started his Snaken career on a low, Baldemar Hintermass made amends by slotting home the 4th goal, which proves to be decisive in the end, just pushing the midfielder to the top of the scorers ranking for the league, bagging Snaken another extra 10K in sponsor money.

Well done KR, and congrats to Meli on the promotion! Bad luck Dell onthe 3-3, but in general it looks like most CDZ hattrick players have had a good season, I personally can't wait for the next to the start already!

The referee showed SwingStarss Bram Verhoef the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. A speedy charge from the left side of the field put SwingStars lead up with 2 - 0. Casper Kuiper finished that one off competently, firing from an acute angle. After 25 minutes momento´s Dariusz Dawidowski contracted a slight foot injury, but could finish the game. Vincent Heil received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly, probably out of lack of experience, in the 29:th minute and almost caused an opponent to score. Vincent Heil almost managed to score another goal for SwingStars, but his header was tipped to a corner by the visitors goalie. In the 34:th minute SwingStarss Vincent Heil received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first.

SwingStars held the ball, with a clear 62 percent possession rate.

The referee showed SwingStarss Joep Knoester the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Javier Eduardo Nuñez the unlucky victim, couldn´t continue the game, so Hilco Mul had to come off the bench. Danny Brandse almost managed to score another goal for SwingStars, but his header was tipped to a corner by the visitors goalie. After 72 minutes Kasper Josefsson came close to reducing the score through a free kick aimed at the left post, but Loek Schulz warded the ball off to a corner. A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 74 minutes might have resulted in another goal for SwingStars. However, Dave Kamel made a spectacular save. SwingStars held the ball, with a clear 73 percent possession rate.

The most dominating SwingStars player was without a doubt Loek Schulz. Vincent Heil on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important momento player was Pierre Brunott. However, Hilco Mul made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 3 - 0.

2 minutes into the game Ryan Train was a hair´s breadth away from giving Yellow the lead. A prompt block by Dewayne Jackson saved the home team that time.

In the 25:th minute Yellows Gonzalo Fernández received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first.

The Yellow Boots are moving on up after finishing the season with 42 points and a 78-0 goal difference. I'm happy about multiple things, not only that but also about my top (until last week) striker, who not only finished the season with 29 goals but also got his third consecutive suspension that he won't have to serve (he finished seasons 22 and 23 with a third yellow card too). I'm currently excited to see which series cup rank will determine that I will be in.

The worst thing was I watched the whole 90 minutes unfold. Was pure torture. Every time I score my opponant would equalise within 5 mins max. Three times I had the lead aswell.

Only bonuses were I got my highest ever turnout in my new ground of 63741 supporters. Nice 300k+. I also managed to get the top scorer bonus. So that was a nice little add on.

So gutted being so close but so far but as I only came 6th last year in this division I'm definately on the up. Hopefully next year my team will vent it's full fury on my division. lol

[yndy]

Grand finale for everyone. Boots and Kemal have definitely rocked their divisions, Boots having received NO goal within the entire season, that is got to be a record.

For the others congrats for your good finishes, promotions or near misses. Our team has finished third with a walkover game. We have not won the scorer's trophy but we will be going for the top spot next season with a decent chance of making it.

[Plux]

I ended third too, with second team winning their last match by walk-over. Is that smth normal happening in HT, walkovers?? I feel pretty pissed off, as #2 lost quite some points in his last matches, and if he'd drawn this final match or worse, I would've been #2. I think it smells like cheating, or am I being para?
