AC Twozzinio 4-2 Winston Gardens FC

 

Another amazing shock sees Twozzinio into the semi finals at the expense of a youthful Winston side. Both teams were ready for action as Twozzinio lined up with a 3-4-3 against Winstons confident 3-5-2. Early Winston pressure led to a free kick for Egri which he duly converted as it glided into the bottom right hand corner of the net. However Twozzinio kept hitting a disorginised Winston on the counter and this paid off when Dekalo a defender was set loose after a failed Winston corner, he rounded the goalie to make it 1-1. Winston were pushing forward but agian were undone by a counter attack, Shamli lobbed the ball over Winstons midfield to a running Triestch who nutmegged a hopeless Winston goalie. Shamli a few minutes later scored his own after losing his marker and blasting a rifle of a shot into the net. Winston tried to freshen up his team after the break but an emphasis on new players seemed to be undoing any sense of teamwork especially in defence. However their attack faired better and Zankho on the 69th minute slid in as a ball trickled loose and hit it past the goalie to make it 3-2. Both teams had chances and you felt Winston pressure would eventually tell but out of nowhere Paparo took a pot shot and Coelho, Winstons goalie, went to punch the ball but missed it altogether. It capped off an awful game for Coelho but a fantastic victory for Twozzinio, some of their fans ran onto the pitch, could a final be on the cards?

 

Yellow Submarine 3-0 Colocinni FC

 

The only last 8 game to follow the script was this one as Yellow Submarine easily made themselves the only top league side left in the cup. The menatlity of the two teams was clear from the outset as YS lined up with 3-5-2 against a 5-4-1 from Colocinni. After 65 seconds Falco headed in the first goal which floated past a frozen goalie to put home fans at ease. Ataisik was on the end of the next goal also a header as YS found success down the wings where they outnumbered. Colocinni failed to make any chances and even though they contained YS in the 2nd half they did not look like scoring at any point. Falco was towering in attack and headed in another goal in the 2nd half to put the game to bed. YS were deserved winners and now look like the front runners in this unpredictable cup.

 

Oh dear Twozzok hasn't logged in :/ shame this is delayed because this should be one of the best cups yet!

Ooooooooh, so close.

 

I suppose @Zell wins due to chances? Fair enough. I'm just surprised my defense did so well in the second half. 8 chances and they only let in one goal! Probably shouldn't have put my new keeper in for the last 10 mins though.....might have won it.

 

Well done Zell!

Pleased that I managed a draw in my friendly today. Shame though because I went 2 up in the first half and then threw it away. Got high hopes for this season. I think I can compete with most of the teams in the middle league.

Well done to you bob, a very exciting game. I was definitely worried that I wasn't going to equalise despite my numerous chances. Good luck in the Middle league next season.

 

It would be silly to quit halfway in the cup so I guess the next season is delayed once again.

 

Season's due to start on the 21st? So the other semi can be played on the 14th and the final can take place on the 19th. Simples!

When Peeps suggested 21st, I thought that was the first possible date after the cup, I didn't think he put in another friendly match day inbetween!, otherwise I would have objected and suggested 17th as the start date!

 

(for the record the final will now be on 17th, Zell got the dates wrong)
