Another very warm day in SSS againstnUbin, a team we always struggle against. 

We decided to add legs in the midfieldnwith 5 players to put a max of pressure on their 4 backs and to inhibit theirnkey players in the midfield from producing quality football. 

To be honest the result of our tactics wentnabove my expectations since within 10 min we scored 3 beautiful goals:n one from Yann (a contender for this year league MVP, fittest as ever onnhis 35th birthday), one from Daniele and one from Olive after a fast pacenseries of passing assisted by Adrien.

Fourth goal was another beauty from Dani withnthe help of Adri who is doing an awesome season. We had a couple of chances andnreached half time with a 4-0 advantage. Very satisfied with the organizationnand the passion we did put in the challenges. 

Second half was a bit of a disappointment.nWe level down our game, focus, and collective efforts. Ubin scored a stunningngoal, whistle we offered them the other one. Lucky for us, Dani did a good worknon the wing for Luke who scored a cracker from outside the box. Last goal camenfrom Barun after an assist delivered by Fafa. final score 6-2. Satisfactionnprevails with a very strong first 30 mins and the fact that we were missing fewnkeys players like Benji, Raffa, Angel, Gaetan and Ussain Bolt Michel. 

Barun is doing well, so is Fifixnimproving game after game. But still a lot of work to do for all of us innorder to maintain this interesting level.

Man of the match had few contenders withnMatteo being very solid at the back (improving also one game after another).nDani with two goals and one assist did well. Rob was sharp and "in gamba”.nKamel worked tirelessly on the left but it will go to Luke for a cracker andnlots of work which goes unnoticed to the eyes of journalists and ESPN TV Sportsncenter but certainly not to mine. The guy runs, passes, covers, scores, defendsnand have greatly improved tactics so thats my choice for this week end. And henstarted street soccer!

Cup game next week, we hope to go to thensemi-finals and I can’t wait to kick my friend Kelso’s ass.

Ubin, good spirti as usual, brave innsecond half. Ref had a good day in the office.
