Good to see that Epic is holding off on this while SHC is away trying to win his way out of military service.

 

[Benji]

Convenient drop off after a return to form for Brayden.

 

[epic73]

1FF doesn't load for me half the time. I'll get 3 or 4 matches done over the weekend, I promise I haven't forgotten this.

 

[Benji]

Epic is banned or something so has trusted me to reliably pass on the news.

Spoiler

7': Di Creggio whips in a great cross to Ameobi, whose header is narrowly wide.

Maguire starts at CB today instead of the suspended Valderrama. A win or a better result than Southampton get will see us through to the knockout stage.

I hope this was just to give Busca-Popps a deserved rest after his many IMPERIOUS DISPLAYS

I can assure you that it wasn't performance related at all, Busca-Popps was feeling a bit tired from his many skillful 60 yard runs.

 

[Craig]

I can tell you now that di Creggio very much enjoyed setting that goal up against the Milanese scummers.

Not sure how Armstrong got into the Team of the Week; he made one save and it was a shot right at him from about 30 yards out.

Being a goalkeeper is about more than just lowly shotstopping Eric. Brayden is multifaceted genius of the position. Cleansheets are abound.

You were also helped a bit by the fact that the Milan players skied about 5 shots from within the six yard box.

Stoke vs 1FF FC - Premier League

51': GOAL. Ameobi is caught out of his goal and Charlie Adam heads into an empty net.
56': GOAL! The ball is cleared out to Ianesta, who hits a beautiful shot from outside the box into the top left corner. The goalkeeper had no chance.
64': GOAL! Armstrong plays a through ball to Buscamonte-Poppleton. It's crossed in perfectly to HeungCod, who hits it powerfully into the back of the net.
68': GOAL. Allen passes it to a very clearly offside Diouf, who passes it past Ameobi and in. 3-2.

90': GOAL. It's hoofed up to Diouf, who produces a frustratingly good bicycle kick to level it for Stoke. Note to self: have more than two defenders next time.
90': Full time.

1FF FC vs Man City - Premier League

Spoiler

Normal lineup today.
24': Stagattuso is booked for a tackle on De Bruyne.

70': Rose is on for Ameobi.

Behind Bony, whom you assisted.
