where did they all come from? nice match

nice match.
dmitri's hat trick in second period was the difference for igor and philippe's blues. and they played decent defense as well. nice job bob in goal. two early scores from french mike gave white half time lead. (tony scores blues' lone first half goal.) but then dmitri took over. other blues contributors were: oscar, corey, andy, romania, mo, romy, andrei, and nasser. White standouts included: nori, bierman, richard, khalid, robinho, fabrizio, eric, marwan, georg and young yasno captains.
yellow cards to dmitri (dissent), andrei (profanity) and red card to fabrizio (dissent and profanity). red cards of course, recieve one game suspension. persistent cards question is being addressed by the "board". further info to follow.
and what great weather! low 60's and slightly treacherous pitch but all in all, a nice game.
nice to see hussan back and thanks to bob and romania for assistance in refereeing.
see video interviews.

now that's more like it!

what a match! jamil's whites surprise the overtalented, dominating blues 4-2 on a windy and cold but exhilarating day. after 3-1 (whites ad) first half showing, blues could manage only one young yasno score (assist cory) thereafter. it was marwan's header from fabrizio's corner at 85 minutes that was the decider. sure blues had multiple opportunities in mad scrambles around the net near the end of the match but the keeper (jamil) would not allow any such business. others playing well for the victors were: georg, igor, nuri, dmitri, andy, and oscar. props to kelly's able performers: philippe, andrew, oscar, junior, marco, julio, bierman, bob, bierman, mo, robin, swiss mike and cory.
note of great importance!!! no major problems. that's right, you heard me. no screaming, no arguments, no cards, little english profanity, little dissent, few critical remarks to fellow teammates.

so i can only conclude that i was at the wrong pitch. my bad.

nice to see steve back with his friends. great seeing all the youngins' and their proficient level of play. we also witnessed quite smooth subbing transitions. we had 28 on the field today. good to see philippe with new (scoring)boots.
nuri will be gone for next week. have a nice journey.
get better franco and andrei. also thanks andrei for reffing today. good luck on your rehab.
