 Just 3 Rounds to Go! Who Will make it to the Semis?

 

 

                                             

       Kings        0:2     Ghostriders 

Match Report: Kings bow out dissapointed as they were eliminated by Ghostriders despite controlling the match.

The Kings started better with some good chances in the first half but their best was at the 39 minute when Snow White hit the crossbar and later Rat King Rational shot was saved by O.B.Rise. 0:0 at half-time.

Another good chance for the Australians came at the 58 minute as Rise was called to save Beowulf direct free-kick from 33 metres. Kings continued to control the match and almost went in front at the 79 minute but Attribute Fairy's header hit the post and went out. Against the gameplay, Ghostriders went in front 6 minutes from time: Neymar da Silva broke the off-side trap and shot in a shocking goal. Stunned from the late lead, the Kings conceded again 2 minutes later again by Neymar who scored from the corner and closed the match.

Man of the Match:  Neymar da Silva (Ghostriders) - 2 goals, Rating: 94

Comments: "Very disappointed to lose after dominating the match. But you have to score to win and we were unable to convert our chances. Well done Mr K." (Klaebs, Klabes' Kings manager)

"I wouldn't be surprised if Klaebs is very very dissapointed after this game. I felt that my team was outplayed all the way until the last 20 minutes. I managed to get some good substitues in the 60min who raised the performance in the team. Also an event at 75min seem to have changed the game of play and made me some good chances that got me the 2 goals. I'm very happy to be in the Semi-Finals no question about that. At last I want to thank Klaebs for the match, he's a very good manager that has achieved a lot since he began his ML career. I wish him good luck with the rest of the season and hope to see him in MLCL again next season" (Mr Krokkert, Ghostriders' manager)


                                             

Kavalacio      4:0         NEAB  

Match Report: Fantastic performance by the Greek champions who cruised into the Semis.

The first chance came after 19 minutes. Luis Salvador delivered a free-kick to Adriano Romano and the later shot well but Rogerio Ceni was in place to save the Turks. The goal came however after 7 minutes by Daviti Murgulia who headed in Su Hongzhi's free-kick. 1:0 at half-time.

Hongzhi almost made it 2:0 at the 58 minute but his shot was saved by the keeper. 4 minutes later it was 2:0 thanks to Adriano Romano. Kavalacio recieved a gift at the 74 minute - a free-kick from 19 metres which Giorgio Petrucci curled in. 3 minutes later it was game over as Petryk scored the fourth with a header.

Man of the Match: Daviti Murgulia (Kavalacio FC) - 1 goal, Rating: 99

Comments: "It was a perfect game. 72avg performance in quarter finals was great. My wingers made a great work and my defenders didn't let the attackers of the other team to make a lot of shooting. Now it's 50-50 against the respectfull team of beachlife. We will see.." (Bill The Italo, Kavalacio's manager)

"My opponent was better than me and he won the game easily. I can say good luck to him for next rounds. We might make a re-match with next season" (NotBot, Not Exactly A Bot's manager)


                                             

  Beachlife      4:1     Connemara

Match Report: Easy as pie for the English who wants to continue the English dominance in the CL.

After just 2 minutes Beachlife almost scored with Amora the Enchantress avoiding the off-side trap and shooting on target but Tobias Styles pushed it to a corner who came to nothing. 6 minutes later he couldn't help however as a magnificent cross by Wreck It Ralph (excellent movie btw) reached Rachel Riley who scored with a header. Connemara replied with a lot of pressure but it was Riley who scored again at the 29 minute again with a header during a free-kick. The Irish almost hit back into the match before half-time as Thiago Alcántara threatened the keeper with a dangerous header but the keeper made a fantastic save. 2:0 at the break.

Connemara came to life at the 57 minute with Hafsteinn Ingisson scoring following a free-kick but Amora made it sure it wouldn't last as she took advantage of a poor defensive display to double the lead once more. A minute later Rachel McAdams almost made it 4:1 but her shot hit the crossbar. She did made it 4:1 however at the 70 minute from a quick counter-attack. Alcántara tried to minor the gap but his header hit the post. Connemara humiliation completed with the dismissal of Patrick Snelders by a 2nd yellow. 4:1 the final result.

Man of the Match: Rachel Riley (Beachlife) - 2 goals, Rating: 99

Comments: "Knew it would be a tricky game as he had already beat advent, so pleased to get through. I wish Kavalacio FC good luck in our next game" (Beachlifeuk, Beachlife's manager)

"Well that was exciting while it lasted. The scoreline could've been worse so I am glad that my players a long time to adjust to that and soon saw themselves 2-0 down. Ah well there's always next season. Wishing BeachlifeUK all the best in the Semis and Final" (csiremar, Connemara United's manager)

The Irish just tried to jynx the English if you hadn't noticed ;)


                                             

   Zi Huha       1:0         BWD     

Match Report: A close match but at the end Zi Huha comes on top and make it to the Semis.

The first and only goal was scored after 10 minutes. Melo delivered a free-kick to Miu Lê and the later scored. From there it was rather boring with a lack of chances and not a single shot on target.

Man of the Match: Melo (Zi Huha) - 1 assist, Rating: 88
