Last Sunday the team had a very sad defeat against one of the toughest opponents of the series, whom managed to come back from a 1-0 loss, scoring the 1-2 only 3' away from the final blow.
Certainly one of the most unfair results, considering that the team controlled and had the opponent seized over the 1st half. However, Jaïr United showed great effectiveness scoring 2 out of the 2 opportunities they had. United goalkeeper showed himself on splendid level, and was key for his team's victory.
Even though Golden had most of the chances, our lack of creativity and clarity on definition were mainly the reasons why we end up with such a harsh feeling in the throat by the end of the match. Match was under control, and our prayers were not answered when rivals scored by the end of the match. It confirms that a team shall not rely on such things as prayers, and the team scoring is the one taking 3 points home.
It has been a very difficult weak for the team, as team spirit was obviously affected by the defeat. Shadowed 2-5 victory, by our 'B-Team', on our last friendly in Denmark didn't help to maintain our image within our supporters who knew we were underdogs on the match with United, but were hopeful on getting a good result after Sunday's 1st half. However, team raised great dissapointment.
Time's running out, and we'll need to put the team together to obtain a good result next Sunday. Important match to raise confidence is the one we have on Sunday, we need to show the rest of the teams we're still alive in the tournament.
If everything continues as expected, with no further surprises, the last two matches of the season will be defining the new champion and promotion for that team. It'll be a close call and without doubt the most exciting tournament this club had so far.
Fasten your seatbelts, the caterpillar is going down.
GLM has the unique potential of being totally de-contractured and well organized at the same time. It's a gamebreaking formula for any team, in any league, and the coach should seize this edge.
ReplyDeleteWe want to congratulate GLM's management team and the organization on the club's achievements so far.
Please let us know when the next party is being thrown, as some of the guys got left behind (and sadly some of those who went last time got totally carried away. Please tell Panchito that Homero Tournier is sorry for piñating him instead of the real piñata. He's been warming so much bench his ass is about to set on fire. He has a nerve condition).
