Re: EMU '11
*Played 30th June*
Interland 2-2 Taeland
Interland's late push for a place in the final took a turn for the worse as Taeland came-back from two goals down to earn a draw. Two goals in the first half for Marian Wyzywan took the forward's tally for the tournament to four. The opener was a simple back-post header from Dariusz Drzewny's corner, with the second coming from a slick turn-and-shot move after he received the ball from Jerzy Golański inside the area. However, after the break, Tim Turner got the second brace of the game in quick succession. After lobbing the 'keeper from the edge of the box after being played through one-on-one, the AC Zimia striker reacted first to Jan Kepp's poor clearance and outpaced the 'keeper before slotting into an empty net to level the match and dash Interland's chances of a place in the final.
24' - M. Wyzywan
37' - M. Wyzywan
75' - T. Turner
79' - T. Turner
Nova English Korea 1-0 Flatland
Lee Hong-Jo's well-placed free-kick was enough to give Nova English Korea the win over a Flatland team that has improved significantly throughout the tournament but still couldn't muster a goal. The Cherry Trees wing-back curled the ball in spectacularly after Seol Tae-Ki was fouled on the edge of the "D".
63' - Lee H.J.
Ocia 0-0 Craitland
An uninspiring goalless draw was enough to see Craitland through to the EMU '11 final, although their display will hopefully not be a foreshadowing of what's to come. The Craits' best opportunity fell to midfielder Hjaņ Herä, who overtook Yaqin Senovichi as Craitland's most-capped player with this appearance, but his shot from a tight angle could only find the side netting of the Ocian goal.

*Played 1st July*
Normark 1-1 Valencia
Jesús Castillón's early opener wasn't enough to beat Normark as the northern Keltians faught back to gain their second point of the championships in their last game. Castillón put Valencia in front within five minutes of the kick-off; his first-time finish from the edge of the area was hit well enough to beat Didrik Malerbakken with a low bounce down to his left. However, Fridtjof Jarlsen, starting his first game of the tournament, equalised a minute before the break with a clever volley inside the box. The Ekeräs forward's inventive readjustment lined him up perfectly to loop the ball over Daniel Palazio right hand as he dived to his left to try and save it.
4' - J. Castillón
44' - F. Jarlsen
Nova England 0-0 Mercury
Mercury's knack of goalless draws made its third appearance in a row as the youngsters managed to keep Nova England at bay all game. Ka'an Peterson hit the Mercurian woodwork twice in the second half; clipping both the crossbar and post with long-distance efforts, but other than that, no other clear-cut chances fell to either team as Mercury managed an impressive three consecutive clean sheets in their first EMU Championships.
Passas 0-2 Hamland
Two-time winners Passas could only watch as Hamland overpowered them to keep them out of a third successive EMU final. Both Hammish goals came in the second half, with Craitish-based strikers Andrew Miller and Jamie Mearns getting a goal each. Miller got the first, thanks to an athletic leap above the Passasian defence to nod-in Ronald Brown's early cross, with Mearns' finish coming ten minutes later as he finished-off a good move with a one-two with Miller and a sweeped shot past Marcus East, sealing Hamland's place in the final in Cherry Trees.
69' - A. Miller
78' - J. Mearns

Re: EMU '11
Can Mercury play a friendly with Taeland, as an unofficial 7th place match, in any Craitland stadium?

Re: EMU '11
We'd have to have Duke J's permission to do that, but I'd be fine with simulating it. Although it might end-up being 0-0

Re: EMU '11
Speaking of 0-0, I was refereeing a 7-a-side tournament today, and most of my games finished 0-0!
My last game of the day was an Under 15s semi final, finished 0-0, went to penalties. First penalty scored. Second penalty, this is where the fun begins XD
Shot taken, keeper saves it, but 5 yards off his line, I order a retake. Shot taken, same happens again. The keeper gets angry and start mouthing off at me, so I send him off. The manager called over the tournament director, after 15 minutes of arguing, and it was confirmed that I made the right decision! In the end, that keeper's team won.

If only more refs were stricter on 'keepers coming off the line during penalties in the professional game, eh?

Re: EMU '11
*Played 4th July*
Interland 2-1 Nova England
A terrific late turn-around in a very enjoyable match sealed Interland's best-ever finish in an FMF tournament going into their World Cup campaign next month. 2009 World Cup runners-up Nova England took less than half an hour to open the scoring; Ka'an Peterson's third goal of the championships breaking the deadlock after the AFC Heartpool forward knocked in the rebound from Callum Sorrel's long-distance shot after Jan Kepp could only parry the ball straight to him eight yards out. Nova England were the dominant force throughout the first half and start of the second, but the closest they could get to doubling their lead was Sorrel curling a shot against the outside of Kepp's left-hand post from the edge of the area with a clever half-volley. However, the victory was Interland's to snatch, with Marcin Orwolski levelling from the spot after Marian Wyzywan had been grounded by Joseph Slatter. The centre-back was given his marching orders for his wrecklessness and Wyzywan was substituted as a precaution. Jerzy Golański, Wyzywan's replacement, got the winner. Only one minute before time, eight after Orwolski's penalty, the striker was played through by Dariusz Drzewny's lobbed through ball and was able to finish first-time past Paul Larkin with a side-foot which slipped the ball under the stopper's right arm and into the gaping net. Nova England were stunned after bossing the majority of the game, but a lack of taking their chances led to Interland claiming their best ever tournament position.
28' - K. Peterson
82' - M. Orwolski
90' - J. Golański

Re: EMU '11
I'm really surprised the scoreline was that large! Still, that's our first EMU title, so we don't have to win the World Cup this year

We keep on climbing on the ranking, but we didn't get any title yet!!!Craitman wrote:I'm really surprised the scoreline was that large! Still, that's our first EMU title, so we don't have to win the World Cup this year
