Anzi Makhachala 1 - 2 QPR

Anzi:
Eto'o 52'Traore

QPR:
Granero 9'
Cisse 74' Zamora
Fabio (8.7)

QPR scored early when the ball bounced out to Granero who buried it in the upper corner. Eto'o equalized late when he beat multiple players to a ball and just slotted the ball easily. Finally, Cisse broke the tie when Zamora and Cisse got behind the defenders and made for an easy goal. QPR controlled with 14 shots to 8 shots for Anzi. However each had 8 shots on goal. GG justca11mejuice

both games were a gong show for me today... my defenders don't seem to move ANYWHERE near the ball, so they're terribly out of position when i finally make the switch to them... how they run away from a free ball is beyond me and frustrates the shit out of me.

Eto'o and Traoré in the box against QPR and the defenders block like 4 shots in a row, then take knock my guys off the ball and no foul? it's absolutely ridiculous.

and don't even get me started on passing - almost every team i've played against has passes going in to open spaces and guys actually running TOWARDS the ball, or passes right to a players foot. me, i put it in to space and my guy stands there or runs the other way. and when i try to pass to a player, it's either way too soft or way too hard. there's no middle ground.

ugh!

Very luck to get away with 3 points in this game. Let alone any. Possession was 50/50 however Roma had 11 shots (4 on target) while QPR's only goal came from QPR's only shot. Very lucky.

Great game DaMeffodMan . Roma struck right off the bat with a goal in the second minute. newcastle utd. quickly tied the game up 2 mins later with a goal of their own. Roma committed a foul in the box which gave newcastle a pk but it was saved beautifully by Roma's keeper. An extremely long clearance ball caught Arfa in the open field which produced the 2nd goal for newcastle utd. Overalll Roma outplayed newcastle utd in this match. If it wasn't for Krul Roma would of won this match. again great game DaMeffodMan

congrats to DaMeffodMan, Virulentmeteor5, Connor for getting their games done already. well done, boys.

You're GD team was literally faster at every position. I would like to echo others comments made on here before and pose a significant question before my frustration overcomes me and I leave this league - how do you get your CPU players to apply more ball pressure? I am sick and tired of watching guys pass the ball around my 18 tee'ing up shot after MF shot.

GG though. Lots of opportunities for you and finally broke through late in the game. If I could just get some guys to play defense and learn how to get shots on goal I would be competitive.

Well played, Fmode11... it was the battle of the winless teams... chances were pretty high that this was going to end in a 1-1 draw, with neither of us having any fun... turns out it was quite the battle and pretty entertaining. Lyon got off to a quick start, notching a nice goal on a penalty kick that just made it over my outstretched keeper. during injury time, Traore was sent on a run, and was pushed in the box and Makhachkala was awarded a penalty, which Eto'o calmly put just to the right of the middle of the net. i'm overly cautious when it comes to taking penalties! haha. the second half started the same as the first, with both teams fighting for possession and kicking the ball up the field, the defenders taking control and then kicking it up field, the defenders taking control and then kicking it up field - literally! very little runs, as OL seemed to be double teaming both my strikers any time they made a move. Eto'o weaved his way in, and rifled a shot on net, which the Lyon keeper saved but right to Boussoufa who volleyed it in the open net. Lyon came back with a nice strike from Michel Bastos, just inside the box, to knot it at 2-2. With time running down, Makhachkala cleared a corner all the way down the field, right to Eto'o, who did a little move around the goalie and put it in the wide open net, surprised that the keeper didn't jump all over him and wrestle the ball away.

hard fought game, well played. Makhachkala is now on the board!

Yeah that was fun. Nice to be in a game until the end. Thanks for the heads up on the game play mods. Didn't know you could change those online games. Made a big difference for me.

Makhachkala on the board, I hope I win one sooner or later. Def didn't play like a team who has never won.

Honestly administering more pressure is generally how you get passed around. If you user control towards the player with the ball it makes it a lot easier to pass around your player. Jockey and contain the ball and wait for a bad pass/ time to attempt to steal the ball. I usually to this with a little AI control pressure. I think its RB.

Yeah worked on a lot of stuff last night against juice man. But you have the damn lag that drives everyone crazy.

Hmm, can the tactical sliders be applied to online games? Not sure, but i know what you mean. Sometimes i play online and opponents are just on top of everything single thing.

Great game Ricky Boots . Bayer outplayed newcastle pretty much this whole game and came extremely close to scoring on many occasions. If it wasn't for Krul Bayer would of won this match. newscastle's D. Ba scored off a rebound shot in stoppage time. again gg Ricky Boots

Good game Ya Dunn Know. Probably the best game I've had in a while, could not finish to save my life though. Had numerous 1 on 1 opportunities with the goalie and couldn't get a single one of them.
