So much for trying to cut back on the 3-0 deficit. I'm lucky I didn't fall further behind, and but for some miraculous luck I would already have. The bar is my best friend so far in this game; many a time it has denied the opposition when my defenders had already been left on their backsides.
Sometimes, all the subtlety in the world can be undone by the simplest of stratagems.
Too focused on cutting out the through passes the other team were stringing, I almost fell victim to the oldest trick in the book: the direct ball. As a result, my 'keeper and sweeper have almost come to blows over whose fault it was. Before further animosity can be exchanged, they're pulled apart, but apparently they are no longer on talking terms.
Great. A feuding team and a seemingly-insurmountable scoreline.
Pull it together, man. There is no way in the coldest of hells I can afford to concede another goal; it would be the final torpedo in the side of an already-listing battleship.
My hand is forced, and I can no longer delay a change. I take off the tiring defender, and send on my best attacking sub. Hopefully, he'll give us some much-needed width, and I can start to make some sort of serious impact on this match.
At the very least, my 'keeper won't have to murder the man in front of him.
It's do or die, commander. Time to kick ass and chew bubble gum.
