World Cup (22)


be Samtizzy >> saturday may 11 - 23:27

The biggest competition in the football field and most of the people are having zero attention towards it. More the communication , more the fun when it comes to such competition where very few managers are part. 

I will start the thread with Jamaica. 
We have won 1 and out of the 2 games we played which puts us in the better position to get in the next round from Group 7. 
Whom do you think will win the World Cup?

  You are winning your next match but not if you are playing us

Turkey beat China 4-2, Wales won on penalties against Croatia.

Good to see Wales doing so well. They've gotten very far since I managed them 4 years ago.

  • China 2-4 Turkey
  • Wales 1-1 Croatia (Wales win 2-1 on penalties)

Well, well, well...

China looked to have a comfortable 1-0 lead when Mr. bin brought on their 2nd string keeper, Tang, in the 64th minute. He would soon regret that...

Turkey equalised 5 minutes later and a few minutes after that, in rather bizarre fashion Tang brought down a player in the penalty area resulting in a penalty and a red card for Tang.  With no recognised keeper on the pitch the defender, Au, volunteered to go in goal. Unfortunately he was not made of gold and, including the penalty, China quickly conceded 3 more goals to make it 4-1 before they scored a late consolation goal.  

The other semi-final was a very tight affair, and it was no surprise to see it settled on penalties. 

Good luck to both teams in the final.

Well done, Mustafa. :)

There are no easy matches at that level, and you did well against what appeared to be a better team.

mr.  bin made a huge mistake. 

In this type of match, the goalkeeper must not change until the end of the match.
