Well this is a VERY important away game for us. We played well in our match against Lille but were very unlucky to have lost (So many waisted chances I just couldent believe it... and a penalty on Amponsah not called). We hit the bar and crossbar what 3-4 times all together... we just could not finnish that night and now after that game we are at a -5 G.A.A. and have 0 points in 2 games. We still have a shot at the 3rd playoff spot but it will be hard.
There are several possible situations that would need to be played out if we want to get the 3rd playoff spot...
-We would have to beat Sevilla (One of the hottest teams in Sain at the moment) away, and then beat Aachen at home by a fairly large margine. Other game results would also have to play in our favour (Lille beating Sevilla). We would then advance with 6 points while Sevilla would end with 4 and Aachen with either 6 or 3 depending on how they do agains Zenit (It wouldent matter if we are tied in points since head to head would end in our favour, if a tie is decided by goal differential then we are ****ed unless we really destroy them and also get a good score agaistn Sevilla)
This is only one possibilities that i can think of at the moment..
Our lack of depth in the squad is really showing itself in Europe. We cant compeat in the League, the Cup, and UEFA at the same time with the squad we have. Santos is playing it smart and really concentrating on the League/Cup and not UEFA. ***Mark my words, now that Artho44 has passed in 2-3 years time we will have our own stadium (being built), a squad that will mirror the 02-03 CL squad, and we will once again be true european contender!!!
Im very optamistic about our chances against Sevilla but then again impossible is nothing!
AEKARA OMADARA SAGAPO!!!!!!
