Looks like Henrique's about to come on -edit- Henrique coming on for Campos

I'm wondering if both teams are trying to just bring this to overtime and hope they have the superior conditioning...

We need some spark in there. Who leaves? Who comes on? I feel we need us some Pelkas

Statistically, the team that scores first wins the Cup ;)

I can't tell all you white folk apart

Biseswar is singlehandedly carrying our entire attack

Shakhov you fool...Biseswar was wide open

For sure, like one of those "authentic merchandise" stickers

GLYKOS HOW THE F*** DID YOU MISS THAT

GOOOOALLLLL

Makes sense. When I wrote that, he was spending a LOT of time standing right next to Campos, which looked suspect. Things have evened out since.

What is this formation we're playing....do we just not have a left wing? Shaky start for us

Matos what the F*** are you doing, you already beat him to the ball

From what I read, they searched them repeatedly. But it never works at any other game, why would it work here?

I just realized Laola's feed doesn't automatically start after the countdown...you have to refresh...damn it Austria, can't you do anything right?

Not sure how long the game will be delayed, but I can hear the players being called/named in the background of the Metropolis coverage. Laola not yet showing an image. Agreed on the lineup as well, I really thought Pelkas would be starting this one. -edit- now they're saying it's starting at 9pm local time?

Lineup:

I'm guessing this is to calm the people down? Still no lineup announced.

What a shock that the police didn't block off a direct route between two groups of fans that will try their best to kill each other.

Aklautoi likely will have one

To paraphrase what Blackhawk said after our loss vs AEK - for big derbies like this, you need to have some guys in there that know how important the game is. Pelkas should be in it regardless of form, and the fact that he's been good lately makes his start a no-brainer for me.

I believe after the Kerkyra game, Ivic said that Biseswar has a lot of trouble playing more than once a week, which is why he's been using him relatively sparely. I would not be surprised to see him start tomorrow and possibly play the whole game, as he's doubtlessly rested by now. Have the 18 players been announced already?

^ the fact that the team has put out multiple posters of their star players (Varela, Pelkas, Biseswar) implies to me that we'll at least see those guys. Wasn't Malezas also in a press conference? If Crespo ends up doing a few interviews, it might be proof of us starting with a 3-5-2!

I think I read a few days ago that they were going to bring in Port a potties for this very reason ;) Welcome Ultra!
