Just got here as I think Goodwin scores. (Edit- it was actually Konstandopolous who scored. Assisted by Ilso)

I'm going to assume it's 0-1. (Edit- it's 0-1)

Lineup looks like

Izzo
Marrone-Elsey-Jakobsen-Kitto
Isaias
Konstandopolous-18
28-Ilso-Goodwin

I think 18 might be Brook
And 28 might be Kristin Konstandopolous

First impressions of Ilso,

Looks like he likes to play with his back to goal and drops back to receive the ball and dish it out to a runner first time. Either Brook or n.Konstandopolous running from mid or out to the wingers.

As I type he skies a free shot in 18 yard box from a low hard cross from K.Konstandopolous.

Marrone still a master of the deep, deep cross.

Jakobsen doesn't look out of place at all. Good passing, good positioning. I think he'll offer us more than Gulum did last season.

Ilso gets on the end of a through ball, rounds the keeper and puts it back to Brook at the top of the box. Brook puts the shot wide.

Half Time

0-1

We spent most of the first half in their half, without ever really looking dangerous, probably on purpose. Kitto and Goodwin overlapped well and put in a couple of crosses but looked to pass back to the midfield when no clear option in the box and then reset and build up again. I would guess we have had about 85%+ possession. Lots of build up and reset. Expecting to see bulk changes for the restart. Looks like Baba is not here.

D'Arrigo, Strain, Lia and Apostolous Stametelopolous all warming up at half time. Looks like they are all coming on.

Para Hills with a good chance, their quick 9 through on goal. Shoots from 18 yards. Palmed over by Margush.

Another triple change.

Goodwin, Brook and K.Konstandopolous off.

5, 17 and 31 on.


Lia, Margush and Strain the only HAL regulars out there now.

Game has definitely evened up, both sides having decent possession now.

AUFCscores via Irabona after a goal mouth scramble, but the flag is raised for offside.

Going to head home because it is freezing here and frankly I'm worried my car might be gone lol.


Kitto looked way off tonight, to the point where no one was passing to him even when he was clear. Definitely need an LB pronto. Kitto has his place in this team, it's just not LB. Doesn't seem like Kurz is planning to use Strain there based on tonight.
