8th Matchday: Voodoo vs. Sauerkrauts: 8:0 (4:0)

Posted by Daniel Berger on Jan 09 2009 at 04:00PM PST

hey guys!

finally I recovered a bit from our last match so that I can give u the match report of our outstanding performance – 0:8 loss against voodoo…

normally there is nothing to add after such a result, but anyway I would like to point out some reasons why it wasn’t that bad and why (after a couple of beers) it felt like an unlucky draw.

if u consider the following points, u’ll see, under normal conditions we would have beaten them easily:

1. a lot of players put some weight on during christmas time (probably coz of good food, lots of drinks and no trainig at all)

2. some of us had their “annual dinner” with the company the evening before and were still a bit tipsy on the pitch (including me – or was it only me??)

3. there was NO beer on the sideline – except in some players mentioned already in point 2. – I don’t know how this could happen!!

4. they betrayed us in choosing the pitch – we warmed up on pitch 2 and already had built up a close relationship to the gras and the goals and then, in the last second, they switched us to pitch 1…

5. “tactics magician” helmut was enjoying his holidays somewhere in the sun, so we had to rely on bilgins 4-4-2 system – which we just where not used to

6. j-p (the mütze) matzke was playing with a cap and couldn’t see anything

7. sturmtank hesmer was running everywhere, but is always seems as if the ball wants to avoid him…

8. due to some “voodoo-zauber” the guys got a penalty after a few minutes which shocked us a bit in our creative structure of play

9. we got 2 more goals within the next 5 minutes which shocked us even more… - but we were still excused by the “voodoo-zauber”…

10. it was already 0:4 after 45 minutes…

11. there was no hot tea (with rum or any other “energizer”) during the break

12. in the second half not that much happened

13. they cut the “right wing” of our “flügelflitzer” sven by a brutal tackle – I hope ur doing better by now?

14. finally we ended up losing 0:8 and gaining the experience that we should play with a traditional “abräumer” – sweeper – in front of our defense and that we hv to train a bit more ;-) 

hope next saturday will be better!!! – can’t get worse anyway

cheers, JPR
