Match Day 9. The battle for the top of the table is heating up, but Catalunya is still top of the table. Xelaju Cosmico are just behind, and perhaps they have the easier schedule. Today they'll be facing Tokyo, who have been looking poor. Obviously, Catalunya would prefer autopromotion, and Fry is key to that effort. A Slurm Plus with a slice of lemon at his elbow, Fry idly observes the Xelaju game. An early goal by Tokyo is worth a tip of the cap. Jun with the big chance for the second goal, somehow misses the easy shot that a washed up ex-indoor soccer player would have finished with either foot. Xelaju secures a penalty at halftime, and that's really poor. Fry throws his drink on the floor, but then retrieves the lemon slice to make up a new drink.
Xelaju clearly got things sorted out at halftime, scoring two more goals and easily running away with things. Fry finishes his drink, laces up his boots. It's going to be that kind of day.
4-1 was the final score for Xelaju. It is time.
Fry again, working the unnatural Right Winger position. Buenos Aries is a solid team. Of note, Fry currently leads the team in tackles won. More tackling skill? We have got 36 TPE. Although this might not show on the Star Man rating, tackles win possessions, and possessions win games. 31 minutes in, a cagey match. Few chances, many passes. De Giron... what a mistake. A penalty awarded to Buenos Aries, and it's a goal. Nearly instantly, another goal for BA. Still, another half to go, and Catalunya has a huge offense. How will things go in the last 45?
Fry laces up his boots a second time. Fry is through on a runner, takes the shot, but a nice save. A clear foul in the penalty area, but the referee was screened and could not make the call! VAR where are you? Salazar with the cross... and what a finish by VS, an incredible strike. 30 minutes to go, and it's game on. AHMED!!! A deflection, a lucky bounce, and it's 2-2! Fry laces his boots up for a third time. He could be the option, the assist, the goal scorer... but it's Santori, putting us at 2-3. Grim.
Fry walks off the field, dejected, and a failure today.
