Bear Islands' Nation of the Bear is rolling into a football extravaganza frenzy as the World Cup approaches. A new football club for a growing fandom is rapidly expanding throughout Bear Islands' Nation of the Bear - the Stormcloaks. Borderline hooligans with absolute support for their nation's team.

Intensity raises anticipation with everyone soon watching.

Even beyond the Stormcloak football hardliners throughout Bear Islands' a single question is asked.

In order to increase team moral the Russian government provided free seats near the field to attractive Russian women. Of course the team would remember what happened to coach of the Vostokslav National Football team at the last International Cup Games. Failure would not be tolerated.

Tianxia doesn't care about this sport, it is for girls and weak teenagers.  Unless we start winning then we care about it and we're gods gift to this sport.  In conclusion we're awesome!  Now we're going to play our own game and kick ass at it then shoot machine guns and glare at half naked women in beer commercials cause that's what super powers fucking do.

Russia Defeats Faraway Union, Moves on to Next Round

 

 

 

Russia  3 – 0 Faraway Union

3 – Goals – 0

18 – Shots – 3

12 – On Target – 1

48% - Possession – 52%

50 – Tackles – 54

1 – Fouls – 1

No cards

 

Russia showed up to the 1st of the renewed AFIS World Cup in a big way with a 3 - nil rout of the Faraway Union. The match started off in Faraway's favor, with an early press into Russian territory, however, as would be for the rest of the match, the Russian defense proved to be far too solid for Faraway to meaningfully break.

 

1st half:

Faraway presses an early attack, having won the toss and using it to their advantage. While nothing came of this 1st dash, it would not be the only opportunity Faraway would get. Early Russian attempts to bring the ball down field into Faraway territory would prove difficult, as Faraway defenders kept the ball away from the keeper. However, even though Faraway held the ball a little longer, Russian breaks towards their side of the pitch began to be more and frequent, with Faraway proving less and less able to hang onto the ball. This resulted in a 33' goal by Igor Melech, and leading to halftime at 1-0.

 

2nd Half:

Once again, Faraway seemingly starts the half with a renewed energy, pressing early in an attempt to make up for early mistakes. Russian defenders, on the other hand, had a different idea in mind, and it was only into the 4th minute of the second half when Russia regained their momentum. An early 57' goal put Russia squarely in the lead, with Faraway seemingly unable to get a decent break into opposition territory. A 63' goal would put Russia up 3-0, from which Faraway never recovered.

 

Analysis:

Both Russia and Faraway played phenomenal defense, however the relentless Russian attack wore down the Faraway much faster. Faraway held onto the ball just a little bit longer, but their attack lacked positioning and time consumption, often losing the ball as soon as they neared the opposition goal. In the end, Russia simply wore down the unprepared Faraway squad. Russia moves on into the next round.

The number of people actually following the progress of this in Faraway was miniscule, as had been the funding and the prestige. Politicians and media would hardly comment on the matter, though reportedly one Faraway man lost a minor fortune, due to betting on at least 7-0 for Russia.

Throughout the Athenian Federations fans of their 'Ethniki' are looking forward to the game against the Nation of the Bear and expecting a serious victory. In the words of one of the fans "Ethniki either beats them or Mitralexis bombs them" the latter referring to the F-2 multi-role fighter used by the Hellenic Air Force.

"Damn, looks like we won't play the Bears. Though, we might lose with dignity, if these Russians include a few Marscurians."

People throughout Bear Islands' Nation of the Bear are disappointed the lack of a chance to play Faraway  :(

Truly a horrible and unforgivable tragedy for both great nations.

Fans throughout Athenian Federation have unrealistic expectations in a serious victory.

Bear Islands' Nation of the Bear is going to show the strength of bears by will of the bear.

As the World Cup went on, it would actually trigger some interest among Faraway elites, when Helena de Grenville, member of the Faraway nobility and Royal Chamber, as well as leader of the Rose Party stated she'd cheer for Tianxia in the coming match. It seems Tianxia has in these hours more fans in Faraway than Faraway itself.

 

Some state they also would watch the match of the Bears though, to see whether Canada can at least get one match, or whether the Bears will join Faraway in getting beaten in round one.

Major Upset! America Defeats Tianxia!!

 

 

4 Goals 0

14 Shots 9

53% Posession 47%

 

1 Injuries 0

 

Injured: J. Jones - American Commonwealth

 

 

Short Summary:

 

It was a game that many assumed was over before it had begun. Tianxia, with its world famous program, were expected to control this game from the onset. Instead, the Americans showed that their growing program was a threat to be taken seriously, leaving Tianxia stunned and surprised in their wake.

 

1st Half:

The first half had the Americans coming out swinging, with goals by Dempsey, Bradley, Johnathan, and Captain Stan all within the half. Tianxia seemed out of sorts, incapable of hanging on to the ball and unable to prevent the Americans from penetrating their end of the pitch. Half time was a welcome relief from what was essentially an American practice half.

 

2nd Half:

The second half showed a Tianxia squad much regrouped, entering the second half with a much solidified defense and a more pressing attack. A 63rd minute injury to J. Jones did little, however, to help Tianxia in any way, and the Commonwealth holds on to their lead. America moves on, while Tianxia's hope lies with the Loser's bracket.

After reported incidents of Faraway fans seemingly throwing a fit and precious China tableware, due to the American victory, football has once again been outlawed as a sport in Faraway and is only allowed as an unorganised sport.

Bear Islands' Nation of the Bear welcomes all football type from our Faraway neighbors.

All three or fours estimated peoples - (with an estimated 50% margin of error)
