EA Shield Cup Run

The cup window was open this weekend and it was time to make a run for the EA Shield. After a disappointing showing in Division 6 it was time to show some backbone after being relegated back to Division 7.

The ultimate goal was to win the cup. Seasons have been full of cheese lately (maybe I have been playing really poorly).

I choose to play as Real Madrid because honestly it just had to be done and there were on of the few in form teams I was playing well with. Here is the breakdown of the Cup run (check the photo for details).

Round of 16
Brilliant finish. CR7 went ham & cheese. 2-1.

Quarter Finals
After a wonderful cross and finish. Opponent conceded.

Semi Finals
It was a clinic. Enough Said

Finals
Overtime thriller. This game could have went to penalties. A free kick outside the box from CR7 opened the scoring and it was an absolute firecracker. The score was leveled shortly but a great play by my opponent. In the early overtime period, a bit of brilliance led to the dagger that put away my opponent and awarded me the EA Shield.

Division 7 was similar to Division 8. Many of my opponents either tired to cheese or the game was just full of cheese (enough cheese to make nachos). I will give you the run down of this division quickly since I have already advanced to Div 6 and need to practice before playing again.

Arsenal* vs Real Madrid
Starting another division with Arsenal and much like their season lately, no luck. 0-2 loss.

Real Madrid* vs ManCity
Annoyed at my first loss and took it out on this opponent. 4-1 win.

FC Barcelona* vs ManU
Are you upset bro? 4-1 win.

Chelsea* vs Bor. Dortmund
Honestly, I got pretty lucky this game. 2-0 win

Liverpool* vs Uruguay
I man not sure what I was thinking playing as Liverpool. I figured I should try them out and it was just annoying. 3-5 loss.

Ivory Coast* vs Some team I never heard of
I was trying to have some fun. 1-4 loss.

FC Barcelona* vs Real Madrid
Could do this all day. 3-1 win.

USA* vs Zent
Disappointing game. 1-1

FC Barcelona* vs Bayern
Not time for games 4-0

FC Barcelona* vs ManU
I got bored. 0-2 loss

Next Division coming soon.
