Fizzydog Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 Arctica managed to score, but near the end of the match we managed to tie the game with a sudden goal. We hope that Tig Kong will learn from his mistake and that we may advance further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Disco Commandant Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 In what was perhaps the greatest upset sonfar this tournament, the Republic lost to J Andres, where many inthe Audience, including this reporter,'believed it should have ended tied. J Andres took a 61st minute lead with a stunning cross over from right forward to the center for a header by tue center midfielder. However, in stoppage time, 92nd minute, the Ravers get a final chance to come back with a corner. Perfect placement and and a perfect reception for a header in, however the referee called a foul on the goal and the goal was disallowed. The referee did not elaborate onthe penalty, even though replays of the goal clearly show two J Andres defenders attempting to hold back a Republican forward, the one who made the header. Ooc: those who saw the US v Slovenia game in the WC know what I'm talking about :V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shatner Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) The entire Commonwealth seemed to be in an uproar since the game. The NPC was able to topple a giant in their latest game, with much of the credit going to Wellington, who scored off a pass from team captain Horne. "We made it clear that we would be revising our playing style and our attitude for our game against France and we showed the world tonight that we aren't some team that you can guarantee a win with. We came out hard and my hat's off to the French side who played a hell of a game. I believe this team has made a lot of history our first time in the Cup and hopefully we can keep it rolling." -Wellington Edited July 27, 2010 by Shatner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Californian Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 When the last whistle was blown, pubs across Atlantis practically exploded amid the shouts of joy from the football fans. Celebration and jubilation were rampant for the next few days, with Atlantis flags literally being flown everywhere. The game was considered the greatest achievement by the Atlantic international football squad considering the Republic of Tahoe's status as a premier North American football team. Tying such a good squad and holding them to no goals rejuvenated the feelings of love for football in Atlantis. In a recent poll, the amount of citizens who knew Atlantis had a football team jumped from 6% to over 86% after the Slavorussia and Tahoe games. Tied for first in their group, it was quite possible the Atlantis team would be advancing to the knockout rounds in its first appearance on the world stage. President Ty Eyvindsson personally called up Tahoe President Darragh McDonnell to congratulate him on a well-fought match. "Both our teams played well and I thank you for the excellent match. Perhaps we could use this game as a starting point for normalization in relations between our countries. I invite you to our capital to discuss that and more, should you wish."

McDonnell had only moved into the house a few days ago and was still surprised at times that he lived here. Looking over the gardens and lawns that led from the mansion down to the Sacramento River. "McDonnell here. Why hello President Eyvindsson. Yes I did just watch that bloody game. Horrible if you ask me though I suspect you don't feel the same way, eh?" The President laughed, "No, its a bloody shame that North America's premier soccer side should look so inept, but yes, on that note I would love to visit you and discuss soccer and normalization of relations. Both are equally important, I think." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elrich von Richt Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Fans in the Greater Japanese Empire were in ecstasy. Despite the shoddy results in the previous Cup of Nations, their team had actually managed to have some initial success. The rings of 'Nippon Banzai!' were heard throughout the nation: in government offices, bars, and households. All across the nation, national fervor was at the highest point since the founding of the existing state of Japan as it was now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offensive, controlling playstyle of our team once more proved to be key to winning. They worked perfectly as a team. Now's hoping that they won't underestimate Southern Sudan like Vietnam did."

Sargun II Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 A devastating loss has put us in a strange position: playing without players and with a chip on our shoulder. Going against the Alaskan Union, hopes are high but the coach has received a reprimand from the Tahoan National League for his aggressive play style and there are wishes to see a clean match.

Shatner Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 The entire Commonwealth is on it's feet tonight as the impossible happened. The NPC will be moving on to the knockout phase, a true cinderella story thus far. The Commonwealth needed the win tonight and came out aggressively in what would be one of the defining moments of the team's short history. Stecklenburg, who had become the NPC's go-to-guy struck first with a breakaway goal in the 26th minute giving the Commonwealth the lead. Australia answered back quickly, however, making the score 1-1 all the way down to the finish. In a test of wills, no one else scored until Wellington headed in the cross off a corner from van der Kaap in the 89th minute to win the NPC's advance into the knockout round. OOC: I substituted Wellington for McKinley because McKinley is my keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaiserMelech Mikhail Posted July 30, 2010 Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 The game between Marscurian Pakistan and Revelstone was a close one. Going into double overtime, it only ended when a goal was scored in the 118th minute. At that moment, the section of the crowd covered in green and orange erupted into celebration. The team themselves couldn't help but do a little dance right on the field. Feeling invincible, the team was quickly shocked back to reality when they saw who they would be facing next, Denmark. In a match that was a mirror image of the CoN II, they would be facing Denmark in the first game of the knockout round. "We've improved an enormous amount since our first international matches in the last cup," said Michael Solomon, captain of the Marscurian Pakistani team, "hopefully this time we can stand up to Denmark and give them a run for their money."
