League Cup 1st Round

Coventry @ Woking


We're 4:1 dogs at home against this Coca Cola Championship side.

GK: Lynch
D: Wiggins/V Taylor/Marc/Nikolaou
MC: Upson/Paulo
AM: Colin/Ogogo
FC: Harsanyi/Constantino

N'Guessan is hurt and Zatara is still gone on international duty. Rhoys Wiggins is back though and he'll start at DL, Nikolaou slides to DR, and Ogogo AMR. We'll try to defend here.

10': Upson makes a beautiful pass through the penalty area to set up Ogogo, he's at a tough angle but he gets a shot off, it hits the right upright...

12': We clear out a cross, but they push it foward again. Taylor misses a tackle and striker Tomas gets a great shot off and beats Lynch. 0-1

26': They get foward and there's a shot blocked by a defender of ours, they get a second shot on the rebound and its just over.

30': Marc gets a yellow for a foul in the midfield.

31': Midfielder Caulker gets a yellow

36': Colin has the ball in the area for a very quick highlight, he goes to the end line and crosses over the keeper, Paulo is theer but they win the header and head it behind for a corner, we can't do anything with it.

HALF: We aren't really playing well here, they have 57/43 possession edge, 8 shots to 4, they're passing much much better than us.

51': We have a throwin in their end, there's one pass to Paulo about 20yards out, he turns and fires a quick shot, its aimed nicely to the left side of the net, the keeper dives and just barely turns it behind. We can't do anything with the corner.

53': Constantino receives a pass in the mdifield after we win a ball... he makes a great run by a defender, he goes a little wide and Paulo fills the gap, Constantino makes a solid pass, but Paulo's first touch isn't great and they are able to close down.

58': Yellwo for midfielder Deegan tackling Constantino about 25 yards out. free kick is wide.

66': O'Sullivan comes in for Paulo

75': Lets try to turn it around and attack to get this goal back.

78': Subotic in for Colin, Subotic to forward, Harsanyi AML.

87': We get a free kick and cross it into the area, O'Sullivan heads it way over, time's running out.

We can't break through.

Woking 0 : 1 Coventry

It was a decent effort, they are just better, by a lot. They shoot 13 times, we shoot 9, but we only manage two on target.

Nikolaou puts up a 7.1 rating, Ed Upson a 7.0. Colin and Ogogo are 6.6, most everyone else is in the 6.8-6.9 range, we really didn't play that bad. But we're out of the League Cup again in round 1.


-- India beat Palestine in the final of the Challenge Cup. New AMR Zatara should be available for us soon.
