I find it offensive that Eastern France, being most likely the most hate-able country in CNRP, is not present.

People’s Republic of Mongolia v. Eastern France 2-1 Goals: PRM: Tukar (2) 7’, 19’, EF: Bouzina (2) 54’ This game was an utter shame. Eastern France went into the game expecting their aggressive, fierce playing style to carry them to a victory. However, the Iron Wolves had other ideas. As soon as the Victors entered the field the Mongolians clamped down on their defence, shutting Eastern France out of the goal while moving up the field to go on the offensive. Right at the start of the game, not eight minutes into the game, Mongolian forward Hemujin Tukar streaked up the field and sent the ball sailing past keeper Alexander Lissi, who could only stand by in shame as the Iron Wolves celebrated their first goal. Barely more than ten minutes later, Tukar repeated this success, much to the anger of the Victors. From then on the Eastern French team finally got their asses in gear, and began a prolonged assault on the Mongolian goal, often carrying the ball right up the field and shooting on the Mongolian goal, never allowing the Mongolians to hold onto the ball long enough to get it to the Eastern French side of the field. However, despite the continuous attacks on the goal, Mongolian keeper Bok Tourgin remained cool-headed under the pressure and managed many miraculous saves. However, in the fifty fourth minute, an opportunity finally opened up; the ball sailed through the air towards forward and captain Bouzina, who then sent the ball crashing into the Mongolian goal with a powerful header. Just when it seemed the Victors were going to pull their way back into the game, Bouzina was called off-sides right before making good on a perfect goal-scoring opportunity in the 60th minute, and the Victors simply lost their energy from that point on. The Mongolians walked away from the game with two points to the Eastern French one, and the Victors walked away hanging their heads in shame.

[/quote] You directly stated your intent to re-unify the former lands of the United States' first incarnation--an action which requires assimilating land owned by many different nations, including Pravus Ingruo.

We will wait about a week to recognise this incarnation of the United States, lest it fall in the meantime, as it has a habit of doing.

Eastern France v. Germanic Union 2-0 Goals: EF: Bouzina (1) 83’, Duval (1) 86’ Clean Sheets: EF: Lissi (2) Yellow Cards: GU: Nordir (2), Gottfriedt (1) Red Cards: GU: Ackermann (2 match suspension, in for Solveigsen’s injury), Vreeswijk (2 match suspension) A shocking win. Eastern France went into this with the intent of attacking with, of course, the intent of victory, but given their luck over the past two games the Victors had expected at best a draw. Indeed, that was how it seemed it would be for nearly the entire game. Both teams went into the game knowing that this would decide who would go on and who would be eliminated from the competition, and that led to an aggressive and ferocious performance by both teams. Shots on the goals were occurring left and right, but the score was kept even by the speed and prowess of keepers Lissi and Schröder. As the game hit the 80 minute marker it seemed apparent that at this rate neither team was going to secure the victory. However, all it took was one tiny mistake by GU defender Richard Hummel, who failed to cover EF forward and captain Alexander Bouzina, who had a wide open chance on the goal; seeing this opportunity, forward Jakob Duval passed the ball clean to Bouzina, who then turned and, nearly unaccosted, sent the ball sailing over the head of keeper Schröder, scoring a point for the Victors. The 0-0 tie broken, the Panzers seemed to suddenly lack the aggression and energy that had kept the game equal previously. Not content with winning by one point, however, the Victors continued to put the pressure on, and just three minutes later, Duval himself scored a point after a corner kick gave him the ball, barely managing to send it flying into the GU goal as the Panzer defenders frantically converged upon him. Surprisingly, no EF players were carded during this game, despite the expectations of the vast majority (including the Victors themselves). In fact, the Panzers took two yellow cards and two red cards instead. All in all, a great victory for the Victors.

Serene Republic of Vaule v. Eastern France 0-0 Clean Sheets: SRV: Nasenko (1), EF: Lissi (1) Yellow Cards: EF: Duval (1), Evains (1) Red Cards: EF: Diderot (2 match suspension) This game was marked by aggressive goal shooting from both teams, as well as excellent goal-keeping from keepers Lissi and Nasenko. From the start, both teams launched vigorous assaults on the other's goal, with shots at the goal occurring consistently almost time after time. Keepers Lissi and Nasenko made a spectacular performance, making numerous excellent saves that kept the score an even 0-0. Eastern France players Duval and Evains were given the yellow card each after tripping two Vaulian players in the match in the 23rd minute and the 48th minute, respectively. Player Denis Diderot was shown the red card after deliberately charging into Vaulian defender Dmitri Loginov while attempting to make a shot on the goal in the 45th minute, earning him a two match suspension.

[quote name='Pravus Ingruo' timestamp='1306880764' post='2721553'] No one has been terminated from Cup employment because no one associated with the Cup wrote the analysis. Why would the Cup write an analysis of it's own groups? That could be seen as match fixing. The article was written by a prominent sports blogger, who can write whatever he wants and express whatever opinion he wants. Stop getting your (rather delicate) knickers in a twist.

[quote name='Pravus Ingruo' timestamp='1306880571' post='2721552'] As Kankou said, examples please. Also dotCom, the analysis wasn't done by anyone associated with the Cup itself. It's basically written by a sports blogger. Would have the thought the informal language conveyed that rather well. [/quote] I checked a few of them. While some names are suspiciously similar to RL Korean footballers, changing one or two letters (and some names are actual Korean people, though not footballers) none of the ones I checked were actual Korean footballers. As for the second point, you shoulda credited the blogger then But t'ain't an OOC issue.

[quote name='Pravus Ingruo' timestamp='1306850314' post='2721346'] Eastern France won't make it out simply because of their name and because they're, well, French. [/quote] Eastern France protests against this blatant racism and discrimination by the Cup of Nations organisation--but we won't waste our time complaining. Our team will prove your prejudiced analysis to be entirely false on the field soon enough. Captain Alexander Bouzina was also quoted to have said something along the lines of 'When we kick your pompous asses we'll see who 'won't make it out because they're, well, French', but this has not been confirmed.
