March 1st, 2017

Milwall(13-12-9, 6th) @ Woking (18-11-5, 3rd)

Milwall are huge favorites today, they're even money to our 11:5 at home. We played them twice this year, tying 1:1 at their place in leauge play and losing 2:0 in the 2nd round of the FA Cup. This is our makeup game so its just us playing today. They need the points to hang on to the last playoff spot, while we need them to get back into the auto-promote 2nd place.

GK: Lynch
D: Nikolaou/Chester/Marc/Ogogo
MC: Upson/Paulo
AM: Colin/N'Guessan
FC: Harsanyi/Constantino

Cook is serving a suspension for his red card today, so we go back to Upson/Paulo. Harsanyi is back and in the lineup immediately. We will again try to attack at home today.

6': We build up on the offensive end and get it to Harsanyi 20 yards out, he's covered very well but gets off a hard shot, its saved by a diving keeper and put behind for a corner, Chester heads a shot over on the corner.

20': Pass forward from Paulo to Colin, Colin looks offsides but its not called right away, Colin runs to the end line, closes in and shoots fro ma very very tight angle and beats the keeper... and finally the offsides is noticed, bah!

28': Colin is hurt and has to immediately come out. Paterson is in, Harsanyi to AML.

42': Free kick about 25 yards out, Upson takes it, the wall blocks the shot and it goes behind for a corner... corner is cleared.

45': A buildup down the middle, Paulo to Harsanyi, he puts a ball ahead for Paterson and he's a little bit out left but there's no defender on him, he's got a really great look here, its our first clear cut chance... and he puts it wide.

HALF: We shoot 6 times, only one is on target. Milwall hasn't shot yet. We saw one highlight for them, earning a corner that we clear out immediately. We have a 60/40 possession edge and are really in full control here, we just have to find a goal, they're very clearly packing it in to defend today. We need to not allow a counter goal, and have to find one ourselves, we need this win.

47': We quickly attack, Paulo to N'Guessan, he hits Constantino, Constantino turns by his man and takes aim near post, but his shot is saved. Its a clear cut chance and was on target but didn't have the pace we normally see from Constantino's shots.

55': Paterson is hurt and comes to the sideline for treatment... he comes back on but is noticeably slowed.

56': Milwall takes a couple shots but all off target.

61': We're getting it to Constantino more often, he's kinda tired, he gets another solid look that's put right at the keeper.

70': We work the ball forward, its passed into the right side of the area for N'guessan, and he's brought down before he can make any sort of move... penalty!!! Upson takes it, and buries it! 1-0

70': Zatara in for N'Guessan, fresh legs sub that was planned before the penalty.

83': O'Sullivan in for Constantino. Paulo to DMC, O'Sullivan MC and just one forward in Paterson. We drop to defend to hold this lead.

We easily hold this one.

Woking 1 : 0 Milwall

We only allow 4 shots all day today, we struggled to score and got the penalty that really bailed us out a bit. Its a huge win for us.

Man of the Match: Paulo (8.1)
Goal: Upson (7.5)
Assist: N'Guessan (7.4)
Notables: Ogogo (7.4), Nikolaou (7.4), Constantino (7.2)

Injury Update

-- Mickael Colin is out for 3-4 weeks with a pulled hamstring. Zatara will play more, so will Subotic most likely.

-- That was a huge win for us. We've all played 35 matches now:

1. Crystal Palace - 70 pts
2. Woking - 68 pts
--------------------------
3. Gillingham - 65 pts
4. Oldham - 60 pts
5. Stockport - 60 pts
6. Milwall - 51 pts
--------------------------
7. Wigan - 51 pts
8. Leyton Orient - 50 pts
9. Rochdale - 50 pts
10. Carlisle - 48 pts
11. Shrewsbury - 48 pts
12. Peterborough - 46 pts

Its not over yet, but the top 3 teams seem very very secure in at least seeing the playoffs, Oldham and Stockport have a nice lead, and then holy crap look at the battle for the last spot!
