MotM: J. Willems​

Late drama in Holland as PSV Eindhoven take 3 points from visiting Shakhtar. T. Matavz started the scoring right on halftime with a headed goal from a corner kick. Shakhtar looked likely to score in the 2nd half, with J. Zoet making a string of saves midway through the half. Eventually Shakhtar made their breakthrough on the counter, with Eduardo converting an easy tap-in inside the 6-yard box to level the match. It seemed a draw would be a fair result for the two sides, but G. Wijnaldum had other ideas, turning at the top of the area, shielding 2 defenders, and putting a left-footed effort past the diving keeper with no time left on the clock.

MotM: B. Ruiz​

Despite claims that PSV Eindhoven had the referee in their pocket, the Dutch side defeated Sao Paulo in Brazil by a 2-0 scoreline. G. Wijnaldum earned the 1st penalty of the match on a soft foul by Ganso inside the area. The captain was insistent on taking the spot kick having earned it, but his shot was parried well by Rogerio Ceni. Eindhoven were in control for much of the match, and the breakthrough came in the 68' when B. Ruiz's cross found T. Matavz, who headed in his 4th goal of the season. It was just minutes later that PSV could have had a 2nd, but a frantic scramble in the final 3rd produced no goals. It was in the 85' that the 2nd penalty came, this one a bit stronger than the last. Matavz gathered a rebound inside the 6-yard box when Rogerio Ceni came to take the ball off his foot. The ref could have called it either way, but fortune was on PSV's side. S. Schaars stepped up and put a hard shot into the side netting, beating Ceni who guessed correctly.

Parma Get Back To Winning Ways
Following a strong start to the season, Parma saw their form dip when they lost both of their matches last matchweek. Tack on the fact that Parma's cup hopes have been dashed in the Coppa Tradizione as a result of tiebreaking procedures, and it was a rough week for the Italian club. Today though, Parma traveled to face the Seattle Sounders and struck early in the match to get back on the right track. In the 12th minute, Marco Parolo netted what would be the only goal of the game. Parma's offense looked a bit out of sync for most of the rest of the match, while Seattle narrowly missed some huge opportunities as Parma GK Antonio Mirante put in a MOTM performance. "Mirante was a brick wall out there," said Coach Bronc. "He was on top of every shot attempt and even did a terrific job in retaining the ball and not allowing for any deflections and tap-ins. His efforts today surely was the difference in a win versus a draw or loss." Parma will complete the matchweek with a game against Fulham.

hey guys sorry it's been a crazy last couple of weeks. I'd like to knock out as many games as possible tonight thru Wednesday. I can play any night after 8pm ET. Let me know your schedule.

 

hey man..i'll be around at 10est tonight..let me knwo

 

Do all your shots on target end up being goals Broncos218 ? Thought it was only against me!

 

Would need to be Thursday or Friday. Pick a day where we can play back to back at 830est and I'll be there

 

Well, it's certainly not the first time it's happened to Selvy9 either.

But honestly, I think it has to do w/ my style of play, where often times I find myself going for that auto-goal as opposed to firing away. This actually prompted me to look back thru all Serie A game recaps for my teams from this season and last... and in 29 games played, only 3 times have I ever outshot the other team (in either total shots OR shots on target- and I won just 1 of those 3 games). And that's compared to 7 such games where yes, I did score on every SOT.

But furthermore, you appear to be on the short end of the stick over these past 2 seasons. In our 6 matches over the past 2 seasons (4 league, 2 cup), I've scored 9 times against you... on just 11 SOT.

 

i think at this point I'm out of commission until i'm back from my honeymoon. I'm not sure what my schedule will be like that first week I'm back, but i'll give you an update sometime during that week of 5/19

MOTM: Balasz Dzsudzsak

Dinamo Moscow entered this game looking to avenge their earlier last second loss to Shakhtar. Things did not get off to a good start as Alex Teixeira put the visitors up midway through the first half. But the defense would clamp down after that goal, and in the second half the chances would start coming, and Aleksandr Kokorin was eventually able to level the score just short of the hour mark with a great solo effort and strike from the edge of the box. Much like the first matchup between these two teams, this game looked to be headed to a draw, but this time it was Dinamo Moscow that was able to grab a goal at the death as Denisov fed Dzsudzsak at his feet, and was able to turn the defender for a one on one with the keeper. Pyatov had come up big on a breakaway earlier in the game, but this time Dzsudzsak was up to the task and fired home the winner.​

MOTM: Igor Denisov
After losing at the death earlier in the season against Sao Paulo, Dinamo Moscow was able to get one at the death to claim the victory in the return leg. Sao Paulo started off quickly, scoring in just the 8th minute turning a counter attack into a shot on goal which was saved, but the rebound was slotted home easily by Pabon. Dinamo had a hard time getting anything going and was resorting to long shots, but in the 74th minute Kevin Kuranyi beat him defender after receiving a pass and was able to equalize with a shot from the top of the box. A draw looked like the most likely result heading into the final minutes, until Igor Denisov got free on the left flank and floated a ball into the box. Aleksandr Kokorin was found on his own near the back post and able to head home for the late winner to give Dinamo a 2-1 victory.

Cassano Free Kick Earns Parma Full 3
Parma and Marseille faced off for the third time this season, with Parma winning the first league match and the two clubs drawing in the Coppa game. The offense for both teams looked sluggish in the first half, with few shots attempted on the rain-soaked pitch. Then in the 62nd minute, Parma earned a free kick in a dangerous spot just outside the box, and Antonio Cassano converted the spot kick for a 1-0 lead. Marseille then began to find some offense of their own, and Gignac narrowly missed a game-tying goal in the 89th minute. That missed shot all but sealed the victory for Parma, as the final whistle blew shortly thereafter. This season marked the second consecutive season the two managers have played 3 games against each other, and Coach Bronc was certainly happy with today's result. "We took advantage of the opportunities presented to us," said Coach Bronc. "It's rare to earn all 6 points against an elite manager like Zikry in a season, so I couldn't be more pleased by the effort of our players."
