10.6 Stuttgarter Kickers vs. SGS Grobaspach
Prestige Cup Round of 32, First Leg
A number of their players have primary attributes in the 70s. This is going to be ugly. Schluter starts in place of Ortag, to attempt to deal with their LF.
Karger has no trouble getting in position, but his strike is easily saved. We muck them up for a bit as they advance down the near wing; Zeitz makes a slide tackle to get possession back, but eventually they work it star forward Kastner(79 Accuracy) and he easily blasts a score from the wing.
A block by Doringer starts off the second half, but eventually they get a corner. We'd need a forklift to get their guys out of the box, but Komolong makes an unlikely save ... so they take a corner from the other side. Again we get the stop, eventually recovery, and a nice interception by Zeitz ensures they don't get another try.
SGS Grobaspach 1, Stuttgarter Kickers 0
That was stunningly respectable ... I expect the second leg to be worse.
** Levels - Doringer(20), Zeitz(17), Naegeli(16), Munster(9)
*** Komolong
** Zeitz
* Fetscher
Doringer unlocks his L3 talent, and starts working on that.
** Balance - 75k(+327) -- Those five extra fans were worth 75 euros. Let's see if they stick around after we get smacked.
11.3 SGS Grobaspach vs. Stuttgarter Kickers
Lots of rain for the rematch. We get another break early as Kastner's first offering isn't quite good enough to beat a fine save by Komolong. I try a defensive strategy aimed at provoking a foul on the slippery pitch, but it doesn't work and with three minutes left in the half they blast a tally through our defense. Ah well. Karger nearly, but not quite, equalized for us(40 roll vs. 42).
His attempt to open the second half wasn't nearly as good, and that pretty much did it for our chances of getting a result, slim as they were. Despite best efforts they marched down the far wing and pounded another shot easily past everyone at the 68-minute mark. Turned over the ensuing kickoff just for good measure, and it took good defensive plays by both Jager and Doringer to prevent another score.
SGB Grobaspach 2, Stuttgarter Kickers 0
3-0 aggregate, but that should have been 4-5 conceded.
Levels - Jager(20), Jedin(17), Fetscher(15)
*** Fetscher - I can't think of one compelling thing he did positively, and he's responsible for a key bad pass that resulted in a midfield turnover. What the .. ??
** Doringer
* Jedin
Komolong gets the 70% training speed discount.
** Balance - 75k(+27)
** Fans - 15(-5)
No big shocker there. Fans like consistent results, so we'll have to get another good run if we want to earn then back.
