Recap

FCB found themselves in familiar territory this Saturday morning as they made the short trip south to Ville de Vallecas, the Wild West that a few of the Bunwer league teams call home. On arrival, Instalaciones were playing Proyel Duro in Canal +’s early kick-off, so the team were forced to warm up on the nearby beach, a sand-pitch littered with items that would only suggest a good night previous. Británicos, looking to continue their fine run of form despite missing their influential and maverick no.10, Zayd, lined up as follows: 

Big (Cold) Rob; Chaz Bhoyle, Ally Renucci, Mike Ojo, Silky, Emeka (Dummy out the pram) Fredricks; Ben Wilkins, Christopher (Easily upset) Parker, Alex Hyner, Nick (Runs like a penguin) Boyle; and Javier. Subs: Barry, Zak, Luke, Michael and George.

As the mist departed the battlefield, FCB faced up against 10 men from the offset, Superefectivo clearly feeling the crisis more so than others, and the game kicked off at the sound of the referee’s shrill whistle. With Rami doing his best to add some glamour to the game with his +1 guest, the boys were keen to impress and moved quickly to assert their flowing passing game. FCB were neat and efficient in the opening exchanges, particularly between midfield and defence. Full-backs Chaz, and Richard Kilroy began to run their respective lines effortlessly, providing some much needed width for Británico’s, which in turn created space for the cute interplay between the midfield trio that we know they are capable of. After the opening 15 minutes Británico’s had created 3 guilt-edged chances, which should have all been finished. First, a ball across the face of the goal which Nick did well to direct on goal was thwarted by a smart save from the opposition goalkeeper, then a one-two between Alex and Javi which ultimately ran behind for a goal-kick, and finally a rebounded shot which was fired over from close-range after an 18yard power-drive from Alex which was saved by the keeper. Thereafter, the last twenty of the the first half was littered by rogue, long range passes mainly by Chris Parker, and FCB began to look like a team that showed as much movement up front as Barry does on the bench. Such poor play after the early promise shown by Británicos was sure to merit a Rami dress-down in the half-time break, however it should be noted that a resilient Superefectivo were doing well to defend wave after wave of attacks and remain organised despite their numerical disadvantage.
Descanso.

Like a gypsy wedding, the changing room played host to tears, angry exchanges, and a cold goalkeeper. Rami paced and strutted angrily across the floor, possessed with images of onside runs, good first touches, and goals. The boys sensed that his frustrations had perhaps emanated from some other missed chances, but alas the FCB mood had to change. The boys knew what they had to, and were going to do to change things. One substitution made, George on for Javi.

The second-half started brightly as the first opportunity fell to Chris Parker who, cutting through the back line like butter, uncharacteristically sliced a few would be crosses high over the bar on two deja vu type-occasions. However the game continued in the same fashion to the first half, typified by a severe lack of penetration. Despite possession statistics akin to Barcelona, FCB still failed to find the killer pass, and finish they craved.

A huge turning point was when Rob, caught warming himself up, launched himself at an early taken free kick which he fired over the bar in Banks-esque fashion v Brazil. This came as a scare for Británicos, who hadn’t been threatened at the back throughout the entire game, as it emphasised the fragility of their position. Rami then rolled on the substitutes as Zak replaced Alex, and Michael replaced Mike Ojo. Luke Gallen then replaced Emeka. Rami was almost immediately rewarded as some cool play from Zak released George through on goal, who coolly took the ball past the on-rushing goalkeeper only to be felled clumsily in a sandwich tackle. The referee however, who had had an otherwise decent game, wrongly adjudged George to be guilty of simulation and waved play on. Superefectivo’s valiant cause was then dealt a major blow as their danger-man, no.10, took offence at an innocuous 50/50 ball won by Ally, and was then given his marching orders by the referee after unleashing a volley of disparaging remarks at the man in black.

A litter of opportunities came and went. First, Ally saw a screamer from 45 yards crash off the bar, and it all looked to be lost as Rami found himself crumpled in a heap on the sideline, berating the God’s for dealing his captain such bad luck. With only 4 minutes left though, the Gods answered Rami’s prayers, and his man with the golden eye, Nick Boyle, popped up with his landmark 100th assist of the season, as he floated a ball over to the back post which was headed in by Michael/ Zak (Ville de Vallecas have yet to install their goal-line technology, but we have been assured that it is coming). Zak’s exuberant celebration contrasted the calm that flooded the FCB bench and players, and the goal can only be described as the just reward for an entirely dominant performance. The game was then put to bed a second after the restart as Zak rolled the debutant Luke in on goal, and he lifted the ball over the goalkeeper to secure the three points.

Although an entirely just result, today the Bunwer side showed the grit and determination necessary to succeed in this league. Superefectivo played, and defended well for most parts of the game, so following last round’s hard fought victory against Cerveza Mahou, it is evident boys have started to learn to play with patience when it matters. The attitude across the entire team for the majority of second half was faultless, but it was perhaps summed up more so by the Man of the Match, Chaz Boyle, who put in a tireless shift at right-back, without putting a foot wrong in either defence or attack for the full 90 minutes. 

Onwards to next week, and as ever, ALL THE BEST
