We got knocked down to the Euro from the Champions, and are drawn against Basel. Today we start Djaniny, Costa for Mexer/Freire. Our final league match for the first half of the season arrives today home against Belenenses. I begin controlling. It’s another very, very quiet game. Marc got a yellow card. Then Lucas Castro smashes Rondon with a pass in the 87th minute to go up 1-0. I pull back my folks to defend. Then Strandberg gets a red card in the 90th. We hold on to win. MOM is Castro, the Lucas one. That was a bit of a let off. I get pissed off at Strandberg, who clearly deserved the card.
Martins will come back for us for the next game from his injury. I issue a formal warning to Strandberg.
For the league cup, we are in
Group B
Portimonense
Braga
Nacional da Madeira
Beira-Mar
I don’t like getting matched against one of the Big Five, since we were seeded 1st along with the Big Three, there was just a 50% chance of getting Braga or Maritimo.
