@ Victory (MDV) (FA Cup Quarterfinal)
G: Abdulla Ziyazan
DC: Ahmed Waheed/Abdella Jailam/Moosa Hassan
DM: Mohamed Hassan (the new guy, not the other Mohamed Hassan)
M: Ali Adam/Ahmed Aiman/Ibrahim Ali
AMC: Abdulla Shiyam Hussain
S: Mohamed Farish Ibrahim/Anas Mohamed

6 - Well that was weird. The opposing keeper comes way out of the box to the field of play, but backs off the ball. It continues rolling, allowing Farish Ibrahim to have a shot at the open net. It clanks off the post (naturally), but the goalie is slow getting back, and our leading scorer is able to put away his own rebound 1-0

28 - That looked offsides to me 1-1

35 - Their strikers are just too good for us. 1-2

40 - Mohamed Hassan passes to Farish Ibrahim and on the pass into box space, the keeper again comes out. Adam makes his pay for his continued foolish journeys 2-2

49 - Hussain is tired and has been shit in his debut, but he's able to outlet to Ali for the fabulous, loping box pass that hits Farish Ibrahim for his second score. That's still it for Hussain, as Hassan Ali comes in 3-2

54 - It's been a great game for Jailam, but he's tiring, so he leaves in favor of Yamin to stay fresh.

79 - Irufaan comes on for the phenomenal but exhausted Mohamed Hassan

82 - Shitty pass by Adam and despite doing everything on their top striker, he belts a hat trick goal in. FML 3-3

After a nothing extra time period, it's on to PKs and we're probably going to get crushed, because we have zero good penalty takers.

Mohamed sinks the first one... 1-0
I thought we might actually stop that, but nope... 1-1
A still fresh Irufaan puts his away with ease... 2-1
Their hat trick guy has no probs scoring ofc... 2-2
Ibrahim Ali somehow powered that through... 3-2
OMG!!! Ziyazan leaps up and stops that one!!!! 3-2
...And of course Adam's stupid ass compounds his meltdown pass with a PK right at the keeper 3-2
Healthy reserve = score 3-3
That's it. Farish Ibrahim's shot is blocked 3-3
But no! Ziyazan makes the save to keep us alive!!!! 3-3
Heh. Moosa Hassan has no leg. 3-3
Now this is just a run of really shitty PKers. It's all going down to luck 3-3
Hassan Ali is still relatively energetic, and he converts the power shot!!! 4-3
WTF?!?! It bounces off Ziyazan's hands and into the net!! 4-4
The keeper guesses wrong and Waheed keeps it down in empty net 5-4
Sigh. Close but no cigar 5-5
Aiman's shot is blocked 5-5
SUCH FUCKING BULLSHIT 5-6

I'm furious right now. So fucking PISSED!!!! We had that game and pissed it away. We're slapped with the Biggest Underachievers label, too. Go suck a printer, you stupid ass journalists. FAKE NEWS!

@ BG Sports (President's Cup - Group B)
G: Abdulla Ziyazan
DC: Ahmed Waheed/Abdella Jailam/Moosa Hassan
DM: Mohamed Hassan (the new guy, not the other Mohamed Hassan)
M: Ali Adam/Ahmed Aiman/Ibrahim Ali
AMC: Hassan Ali
S: Mohamed Farish Ibrahim/Anas Mohamed

So there's a few guys out with injury, including our new AMC. The President's Cup has a group stage of 3 games. Top 2 make it on to the Semi-final. We're not expected to get beyond here, even with as favorable a draw as we could have gotten.

3 - Adam gets the clearance and passes to Hassan Ali in the box. Doesn't like the wall, so back to Adam for the cross to Ibrahim Ali. Shot's blocked, but he puts away his own rebound 1-0

26 - Fuck that ball is impossible to see 1-1

29 - JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!! CAN NOBODY GOD DAMNED DEFEND OR BLOCK SHOTS ON THIS SHITTY FUCKING TEAM?! 1-2

52 - Aiman's corner sees the keeper come out and thrust up like an elephant holding a Loxodon Warhammer. Ball bounces off his hands and goes on a crazy, erratic trip that somehow ends up at Adam's feet for the score. Off are the two DCs not named Waheed and in are Rasheed and Yamin to try and not be terrible 2-2

75 - Irufaan for Mohamed Hassan

86 - Waheed finally makes a great defensive stop, hammering the ball down the middle of the pitch to Farish Ibrahim. He shoots it out into right space for Mohamed to run down. On the dribble and cross, Farish Ibrahim leaps above the defender and smacks the header in perfect position. 3-2

87 - YAMIN YOU STUPID FUCKING ASS!!! DON'T KICK THE BALL INTO THE BACK OF YOUR OWN FRIGGING TEAMMATE AND LET THEM GET THE FREE SCORE!!! JESUS H FUCKING ROOSELVELSGLHADOGASOFHASOFASDOFHASFA 3-3

vs Valencia (MDV) (4th) - Group B President's Cup
G: Amdaan Rasheed
DC: Husny Rasheed/Abdella Jailam/Moosa Hassan
DM: Mohamed Hassan (the new guy, not the other Mohamed Hassan)
M: Ali Adam/Ahmed Aiman/Ibrahim Ali
AMC: Abdulla Shiyam Hussain
S: Mohamed Farish Ibrahim/Anas Mohamed

They had a 1-1 draw their first game, so nobody in this Group of Shit has won anything yet. Ahmed Waheed is out 3 weeks with a groin injury.

15 - Adam with the inspired tackle strip in our half, followed by the grab and booming kick down the left flank to Farish Ibrahim. He crosses back to Ibrahim Ali, who steps to the box boundary and fires the shot from downtown! The guys look really fired up for this one 1-0

23 - Of course NOW is when we give up a set piece goal. Whatever. 1-1

36 - Aiman picks up the clearance, rockets out right to Ibrahim Ali, and on the center, Mohamed *finally* snaps out of his forever drought. Hurriya (MDV) is busying destroying BG Sports 4-1 BTW. 2-1

47 - CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE FUCKING MAKE A STOP ON A FUCKING SET PIECE? FOR FUCKS' SASKES!!!!! 2-2

58 - Usual DC and DM subs. Not that it fucking matters or anything.

61 - Throw-in to the keeper, who has his own lazy throw that Mohamed darts forward to steal and slam in the go-ahead score. Not that it matters, because they'll just equalize on another damned corner 3-2

64 - Or, you know, just allow the immediate fucking answer 3-3

84 - Ibrahim Ali takes the cross in the box and sends it back over to Adam on the left side. Defender is putting up a hell of a battle, but Adam finally squirts back to Farish Ibrahim for the goal and let's see if we can actually go more than 3 fucking minutes without letting them equalize 4-3

9.0 PotM for Ibrahim Ali, 8.8 for Anas Mohamed, and 8.1 for Ali Adam.

vs Hurriyya (MDV) (2nd) - Group B President's Cup
G: Areef (by complete mistake)
DC: Husny Rasheed/Abdella Jailam/Moosa Hassan
DM: Mohamed Hassan (the new guy, not the other Mohamed Hassan)
M: Ali Adam/Ahmed Aiman/Ibrahim Ali
AMC: Hassan Ali
S: Mohamed Farish Ibrahim/Anas Mohamed

We've already qualified for the knockout stages and are tentatively in 1st because Valencia (MDV) whipped BG Sports 5-1 and we just beat Valencia.

7 - My kingdom for defenders who don't suck ass 0-1

26 Jailam plays it long down the middle of the pitch to Mohamed's head. Farish Ibrahim drifts right and knocks in an inspired shot from the half-circle 1-1

54 - Mohamed Hassan wings out left to Adam and on the cross, Mohamed knocks in the header 2-1

57 - Jailam is off for Yamin and Navaau goes back in for the first time in a while, replacing Aiman. But not before they equalize of course 2-2

77 - Don't stop those. This team is gonna get an earful 2-3

87 - Of course Farish Ibrahim gets knocked out with injury. Ibad in

88 - Generous PK, but Mohamed will take that. 3-3

Mohamed Hassan will miss the next game with yellows. Mohamed Farish Ibrahim is out for just a couple weeks is all. We drop to 2nd, but whatever.

vs Maziya (President's Cup Semi-Final)
G: Abdulla Ziyazan
DC: Husny Rasheed/Abdella Jailam/Moosa Hassan
DM: Mohamed Irufaan
M: Ali Adam/Ahmed Aiman/Ibrahim Ali
AMC: Hassan Ali
S: Hussain Athif/Anas Mohamed

10 - Gonna be one of those days already 0-1

50 - Switching to a 3-1-4-2 with Hassan Ali off and Navaau in as second MC

70 - Ibad is on for Athif

73 - Visham for Ibrahim Ali

89 - 0-2

92 - Rasheed scores his first Red Line goal on a corner, but too little way too damned late 1-2

Youth Signing - AMC/ST Abdulla Zubair (16) - $30 P/A
10 First Touch, 11 Technique, 10 Decisions, 16 Flair, 10 Pace. Might get a look as a starter.

Back to league play next game, and with 6 to play, we're 9 points up on the drop zone ([b]Hurriya (MDV) and BG Sports both have yet to win a game in the league this season) and 6 points out of 1st. Obviously New Radiant is in front and looks to continue their Mateo Kaspar-style dominance of capturing Dhivehi titles.

Oh, and Victory (MDV) won the President's Cup 3-1 in extra time, but that doesn't appear to come with a cash prize.
