SC Braga (Home - ShallNoiseUpon) - Botafogo (Away - Sneaky77)
0 - 2

44' G. Herrera - Botafogo
90' S. Abreu (Pen) -Botafogo

Having played one game in the past week, I was incredibly rusty and playing Sneaky didn't help a bit. Got a bit frustrated in the 90th and may or may not have slide tackled an attacker in the box.

GG.

Screw you guys. You know that by bringing up my superior goal difference, you will unleash the wrath of FIFA gods on me, and I won't score in my remaining games, right?

atf487 v. SmokingBarrelX
FC Copenhagen 1 - 0 Trabzonspor

57' N'Doye (COP)

Interesting game, I was playing pretty shittily and SmokingBarrelX dominated possession for the majority of the game. Luckily I strung some good passes together and converted on what was, at the time, the only real chance of the game that I had. I might have to start playing a different style than "press early, sit back in the final third" because my opponents in the past two games were unlucky to score

Alright I'm back in town (a day early no less). I'll be available for games today and tomorrow just about any time, and during the week in the evening (probably 6:30+).

I should know not to play games when hungry. I can't keep my hands steady and I just fuck up constantly. :lol

GG tf53. You should have scored more than one. I fucking sucked it up.

Dinamo Moscow (Tf53) - River Plate (magicked) 1-0

70' Kuranyi

It was a really tight-fought game. Magicked had wisely started 10 goal posts and a goalkeeper, which kept the score tight despite the shot count being 16-1 in my favor. When Kuranyi was finally faced with an empty net, he almost screwed that up too. I told you not to bring the wrath of the FIFA gods upon me, Koji!

:lol

These are powerful allies. I almost escaped our battle unscathed!

You're really good at anticipating which direction I'm going to cut when I get the ball. You're also really good at controlling your dribbles, even without skill moves. GGs.

FIFA pretty much comes down to a game of rock, paper and scissors.

The noobs play really predictably. The players on the next level learn to use that to their advantage. The players on the next level do the opposite of what you think. The players on the level after that anticipate that you'll do the opposite of what you think they think. This leads to noobs being able to use elementary tactics to beat people on a higher level of skill.

The ultimate challenge is changing your game depending on the skill level of your opponent. WC2010 did wonders for my patience, and I learned to pass the ball one touch earlier or later than you'd think.

Anticipating cuts can either make defending really easy or hurt you really bad, depending on whether your opponent knows how to exploit your anticipation.

I think I do a good job on defense for the most part. I'm very patient and use jockeying constantly. It is all about position. I played a kid the other day who thought that I was fouling him and not getting called for it. lol Beat him 5-0
