Good to have some solid Internet!!!

So anyway, I won't play catch up... too much to do.

Here is my AMAZING FOFC Cup match:

IFK Bananskruv - SouthPark Cows 3 - 3





Date: 12/31/2003 at 20:00
MatchID: 13543445
Arena: IFK Bananskruv Arena
Crowd: 785


785 spectators had found their way to IFK Bananskruv Arena, despite the heavy rain. Bananskruv tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. The following players had been chosen: Sahlling - Persson, Hylind, Surakka - Vara, Ragnfeldt, Ångerberg, Iglesias, Roca Paradis - Zetterflod, Klangfeldt.

SouthPark tactics involved an interesting 5-3-2 combination. The following players had been chosen: Tirado - Garagnani, Fredriksson, Cronbom, Babcock, Bridges - Mcnutt, Reynosa, Guy - Donaldson, Singh.

Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of SouthPark, and they seem brilliant at it. SouthPark showed their counterattack skill in the 3rd minute, with Steven Mcnutt scoring uncontested for 0 - 1. Bananskruv tried to reply with long plays towards the centrally placed strikers, but the visitor´s defence got the best of it. SouthPark was great at switching from defense to attack, and in the 30:th minute, Gónzalo Reynosa swept through in the middle after such a counter attack, making 0 - 2. After 36 minutes Rickard Zetterflod made a speedy advance and dropped the ball to Per Klangfeldt who shuffled the ball past the keeper. The score was now 1 - 2. After the ball got lifted in from the left Everett Singh was on his own in the home side´s penalty area 37 minutes into the game, and should have scored, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. In the games 38:th minute SouthPark´s Tory Guy fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee booked Tory Guy for taking a dive. Per Klangfeldt was just a finger´s breadth away from an equaliser for Bananskruv, but Fred Tirado managed to ward the closing shot off for a corner. Jonas Cronbom of SouthPark received a yellow card in the 42nd minute for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The teams went for a half-time break at 1 - 2. Bananskruv held the ball, with a clear 55 percent possession rate.

SouthPark´s Clayton Donaldson received a play slashing through the home side´s defense in the 48:th minute, chipping it past the keeper scoring 1 - 3. The home crowd was not pleased with that one. Bananskruv´s Per Klangfeldt got the home crowd going when he finished off a left wing charge putting the away teams lead down to 2 - 3. In the 63rd minute Bananskruvs Kent 'Frop' Ångerberg received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Kjell Ragnfeldt pulled a real crowd pleaser as he, in the 72nd minute, wove through the guests whole central defense line and put the 3 - 3 equaliser away. Bananskruv held the ball, with a clear 59 percent possession rate.

Most important Bananskruv player was Mats Sahlling. Kent 'Frop' Ångerberg on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important SouthPark player was Fred Tirado. Gónzalo Reynosa was a disappointment, however. The match ends 3 - 3.
