(OOC: And very easy victories for a couple of teams, I might add again? Something fishy with the scorinator, methinks.)
IC:
Dryads Fall Again; Certain Doom Awaits in KOs
It's been a mixture of AOCAF XIII and XIV in number XV for the Myrtannia Dryads in Bazalonia. Despite the best efforts of the Myrtannian squad, the Dryads were once again unable to gain any ground against the Blue Foxes of Pacitalia. Just as in AOCAF XIII, Myrtannia failed to score a goal again, the second time in this tournament that that has happened. Last time, it was due to the Dryads sending in their reserves against Starblaydia rather than risk its starters. This time, the Dryads just had no ability to crack a strong Pacitalian defense.
The only goals of the hard-fought defense-minded match came late, as the Blue Foxes put two past Flo Krabel in the final five minutes to secure their second victory of the group stage and second place in Group Verona. As Milchama defeated Islands of Qutar, Myrtannia slipped to fourth, though they have succeeded in their goal of reaching the round of 16 for the second consecutive tournament. From there, the good news ends.
Firstly, striker Deeann Massetti was red-carded for an uncharacterisitic head-butt of a Pacitalian defender. The physical embodiment of Myrtannia's frustration in AOCAF XV, the move sentences her to missing three matches or the rest of AOCAF XV, whichever comes first. This means that Myong Tuman will be thrust into the starting rotation, and leaves the Dryads with only two reserve forwards. Reserve Tocarra Khat will miss at least one more match after an injury sustained against Starblaydia.
Then, there's the matter of their round of 16 opponent - the tournament's other powerhouse, Nedalia. The Lions steamrolled their way through the group stage, and don't look likely to stop on Myrtannia's account. It seems to be an early exit for the underwhelming Dryads. Myrtannia will give it their all, but the Lions seem just too strong for the orange and blue. Still, Mytrannia did upset Vilita and Bazalonia to reach the semi-finals last time, but Vilita was apathetic, where Nedalia is not.
"Oh well, we'll go out there, play a last match, and go home to prepare for AOCAF XVI," assistant coach Rachell Gabino said in frustration.
Meanwhile, AIR 4 has released its official round of 16 predictions, with the slogan, "They're notoriously unreliable!"
Nedalia vs. Myrtannia
See above story. The line: NED 5 - 1 MYR
Legalese vs. Milchama
In their first AOCAF in a while at least, Legalese has made it to the knockouts with a vaguely impressive group stage performance. That said, we feel that the Warriors of Milchama, with more consistant experience in AOCAF, will send the lawyers home early. The line: LGL 2 - 4 MIL
Starblaydia vs. Bazalonia
The question in this match becomes: can anyone stop the Purple Peril? They outscored opponents 19-1 in the group stage, and have a day's rest on top of that! Bazalonia has faltered slightly in their first 'at-home' AOCAF. 'Nuff said. The line: STB 6 - 0 BAZ
Pacitalia vs. Andossa Se Mitrin Vega
ASMV has made it to consecutive AOCAF knockouts for the first time, and are definitely improving in the regional competition. However, they will exit early again as the resurgent Blue Foxes slip past them into the quarterfinals. The line: PAC 2 - 1 ASMV
Bettia vs. Oliverry
Oliverry wasn't supposed to make it here, but suddenly they find themselves in the second round of the AOCAF. They should count themselves lucky, but stand no chance against the highly experienced Aroras. If they can't play defense against the Bettians, expect this to get very ugly for Oliverry very quickly. The line: BET 5 - 1 OLI
Bedistan vs. The Lowland Clans
Tough call here. Both teams seem fairly evenly matched, but we think the B-Stars of TLC will take down the Bedistanis in a close match.
The line: BED 0 - 1 TLC
Hypocria vs. Lamoni
Hypocria seems to have gotten itself back on track AOCAF-wise, doing very well in their group and doing the Autocracy proud. Lamoni, on the other hand, have looked to be a hollow shell of the squad that went all the way to the final in AOCAF XIV. Sorry, buddies in Nephi, but we're going to have to take the Hypos.
The line: HYP 3 - 2 LAM
Krytenia vs. Manhatten Prime
Manhatten Prime has snuck into the knockouts in their inaugural AOCAF, which is to be congratulated. However, their scrappy play won't save them against the superior forces of the Krytenia side, who seem to do well in the round of 16 at the very least. The line: KRY 4 - 1 MP.
Final:
Myrtannia 0 - 2 Pacitalia
(none) (d'Amantano 85 & 88)

River Dragons vs Blue Foxes
[B]Now who saw that matchup coming?
This is Hal Rosh reporting live from Bazalonia. An no, I haven’t seen a single Bazalope since I’ve been here.
The River Dragons earned a qualification spot today after a very hard-earned 2-1 victory over the Necromancers of Dorian and Sonya. The match was even at one apiece when a lucky bounce found the net in the 89th minute to secure the win.
That means ASMV is in the round of 16 where we will play the Blue Foxes of Pacitalia. The two sides seem very similar thus far in competition. Both have beaten the lower 2 seeds in their groups, and both have earned draws with tough competition and both have put 7 points on the table. The big difference can be seen in goal differential where Paci was -3 and ASMV +1. This difference was due to how each side fared against the top seed of their group. Paci was destroyed by Star while we earned a draw with Bettia.
This should be a great match as both sides try to move on. The rankings are close, the squads are nearly even. Now to see who will win.
Predictions:
Nedalia vs. Myrtannia. We expect the Lions to roar and crush the Dryads.
Legalese vs. Milchama. The Warriors will rule as the silence of Legal catches up with them.
Starblaydia vs. Bazalonia. We all know who this winner is. The Host’s tourney is over.
Pacitalia vs. ASMV. River Dragons choke. Or not. Who knows.
Bettia vs. Oliverry. Bettia’s offense will move them into the round of 8.
Bedistan vs. The Lowland Clans. The Clansmen will win this one and begin to show some actual signs of life.
Hypocria vs. Lamoni. The Hyppos will clip the wings of the Hawks who just havent been themselves. Hypocria has returned to Championship form.
Krytenia vs. Manhattan Prime. We would like to think the new guys have a chance. Not gonna happen this time, though. |

Second place secured!
River Dragons lie in wait in the round of sixteen after 'Foxes down Dryads 2-0 in final group match
BAZALONIA (PSN) -- ASMV fans are just as bewildered as Pacitalian fans to find that the results of matchday five have caused their two squads to meet in AOCAF knockouts for the first time ever. Pacitalia beat Myrtannia 2-0 for their third win against the Dryads in as many tries while the River Dragons prevailed over the Necromancers, doubling them up 2-1.
Both sides hit 2-1-1 for their final record after the group stage, respectable considering both squads' early efforts. Pacitalia stumbled into the latter half of the group stage to record two wins against improving sides while ASMV managed to draw Bettia before stumbling in the middle of the group stage. However, they stayed mid-pack through the five matches to end up third in Group BazAir. The Blue Foxes, however, thanks to the kickarsery of the men in mauve, claimed second in Verona, five points behind the idle Starblaydi.
In this last match, it took eighty-five minutes before squad captain Veranace d'Amantano broke past Orpha Mega and Tamar Ristaino to give the Blue Foxes the lead off a stellar goal. Andolfabio Vunghiasso streaked up the left side, deking right past Shu Ellebrecht before passing the ball to a chasing d'Amantano. He snapped the ball through the legs of Mega and draw-passed it beside the outstretched leg of a frantic Ristaino before curling a rocket-shot to the top left corner of the net. Flo Krabel appeared to get her fingers on the shot but was unable to stop the fiery blast from the captain's right foot.
Then, three minutes later, the captain got on the scoresheet once more as his shot hugged the ground, sailing low to the left and past Krabel for a 2-0 lead and the victory. What was more shocking than the late burst of offence by the Blue Foxes was the response of star forward Deeann Massetti to the second goal, as on a Myrtannian counter-attack in stoppage time, Francesco Manzanotti interrupted Dryad possession by stopping Massetti's attempted pass to Rozalynn Gabino and shuttling it forward to Nuno Cabana. Massetti, known for her fiery disposition (at least verbally) in AOCAFs past, chose to take out her frustration and attitude in physical form, and headbutted Manza for his troubles. He was uninjured; in fact, the only thing injured is Massetti's pride, for she was red-carded and will miss the next three matches for Myrtannia.
The Dryads move on to face a likely exit at the hands of the powerful Lions, who left the group stage undefeated and are looking for a crack at the egg that is the final. Meanwhile, as we mentioned, the second-place Blue Foxes head off to stadium four to face the River Dragons out of Andossa Se Mitrin Vega. The Pacitalian squad has never played them before in the knockouts but the highlights always show some solid football talent even when those dragons aren't performing at their best. Look for a close match that could go either way, but definitely watch for second-half offensive spark from the Pacitalians, who seem to score most of their goals down the stretch (the 65-85 minute range).
Meanwhile, our predictions?
Nedalia v Myrtannia
The Lions are just too strong. Rozalynn Gabino looks to create an upset in a second-straight AOCAF knockouts for the Dryads, scoring early. However, Constantine's superb international experience and Tim James' scoring knack bring Nedalia right back in and then some. 3:1 (0:1).
Legalese v Milchama
Say what? Legal's through? Well, it ends here, as a resurgent Warrior squad, bottom-feeding for most of the group stage brings out solid football for the round of sixteen, dropping the lawyers in regulation time. 1:0 (1:0).
Starblaydia v Bazalonia
The home crowd will exit the stadium disappointed. While we'd like for somebody to pwn the mauveys right back to see how utterly hollowing it feels to get horseshoed 6-0, it's not going to be the Bazalope B's. Tolkacheva with two, Asante with the third. 3:0 (2:0).
Bettia v Oliverry
RAWRCRUSH offence stacked against imitation Frenchmen. That's the simple term for this matchup, and while it's a bit offensive, it does make things a lot easier to understand. The Oliverrian reserves are getting a lot better, proportionally respectable to the successes of their World Cup-tier team but they were still fourth in the group stage while Bettia cleaned up with a 3-1-0 record. 4:2 (2:2).
Bedistan v TLC
Aaaaand.... upset, but still right down to the wire. Signs of life from the Stars, for once - buoyed by their championship victory at the PFI. That's all we have to say about it. 0:1 aet (0:0, 0:0).
Hypocria v Lamoni
No repeat finals appearance for the struggling Hawks; expect them to be swept back into the gutter by the undefeated Hyppos. 5:1 (3:0).
Krytenia v Manhattan Prime
We like the Krytenians, but we like the rookie success of MP even more. It'll be a close one, with the latter squad buoyed by their five-point effort in the group stage while Krytenia tries to reach the quarterfinals. An upset is unlikely, sadly. 2:1 (1:1).
From Bazalonia
Pacitalia 2 : 0 Myrtannia
PAC: d'Amantano 85', 88'

Perfect 12
Stephen Murtagh reporting from Woolgolga, Bazalonia
For the sixth time in their seven tournaments the Autocracy’s finest have advanced beyond the group stage of the AOCAF. And they have done it in style too, accumulating a maximum of 12 points and netting fifteen goals in the process.
The 100% group record was completed with a, not entirely comfortable, win over Oliverry. Sure the Hyppos scored five goals for the second successive match but defensive frailties once again became apparent as the men in blue and white shipped three goals against fairly poor opposition.
Perhaps the players had come away from their rest day slightly too rested and they were given an early wakeup call, Oliverry taking the lead after three minutes. Some sense of urgency was restored and Sousa set up Dudamel for the equaliser. Ten minutes later the pair exchanged roles, Sousa tapping in from Dudamel’s pass. A left footed twenty five yarder from veteran Robert Bercali made it 3 - 1 before halftime and three more points looked comfortably in the bag.
Clearly the side from Oliverry hadn’t read that particularly part of the script and added an early goal in the second half to the early strike in the first. Once again this seemed to spark the Hyppos into life and Molinari regained a two goal lead with a smartly taken effort in the 68th minute. You could almost sense the collective groan of two billion fans back in the Autocracy as the Hyppos once again backed off and once again were punished for it. It nearly got worse but Alexei Lomaia made a couple of smart saves to keep out an equaliser. With just a couple of minutes to go the Hyppos made the game safe. Ferron released Sousa down the middle and the teenager kept his cool to loft the ball over the advancing keeper and into the net.
Hypocria 5 - 3 Oliverry
Dudamel
Sousa(2)
Bercali
Molinari
In Group Baza Publishing’s other game the Lowland Clans beat Hiiraan 2 - 1 to secure their place in the second round. They join Hypocria and Krytenia who were both already assured of a place. Oliverry advance too despite their defeat. Hiiraan are heading home.
The HyperSport Upset of the Round
Group TeleBaz - Lamoni 2 - 3 Legalese
It may be getting a little repetitive but once again it’s the Lamoni result that set the eyebrows raising. The Hawks had picked up just 2 points in two very winnable games ahead of this fixture and followed up those disappointments with more of the same. But on the bright side those 2 points ensure the runner’s up of four years ago advance into the second round. Just.
Next . . .
Hypocria (10) v Lamoni (8)
Finishing top of the group ensured a second round place against one of the fourth placed sides. Something that would normally be treated with great optimism. Unfortunately the draw partners Hypocria with this AOCAF’s great underachievers, Lamoni. The Hawks advance through to the second round with the lowest points total of any of the qualifiers and made a right mess of a comfortable group. But on their day the men from the Free Republic are a match for anyone.
Past Meetings
AOCAF IX (Cockbill Street)
Semi Final
Hypocria 1 - 0 Lamoni
Baxter
History is on our side and the Hyppos are certainly in the better form. But let’s not forget that the Hawks are the higher ranked of the two sides and their run of poor performances can’t last forever.
Second Round Preview
Nedalia (2) v Myrtannia (21)
The Nedalians are looking good, very good in fact. Four wins, seventeen goals scored and just two conceded are testimony to that fact. The attackers are in fine form while the Lions’ often suspect defence is working well too. The Dryads on the other hand managed just a single win in their group.
Prediction: The Lions roar again.
Legalese (23) v Milchama (15)
Two teams that have advanced very quietly meet in Cantinople. Both have the same number of points from the group stages but the Milchama strikers have been in much better form in front of goal.
Prediction: The Warriors battle through to the quarters.
Starblaydia (1) v Bazalonia (20)
What more is there to say about Starblaydia? The reigning champions are in imperious form, battering all those that have crossed their path. Bazalonia, on home turf, have not been so impressive with just four points from four games. Even with their vocal home support behind them the Bazalopes are still rank outsiders.
Prediction: The purple juggernaut rolls on.
Pacitalia (11) v Andossa Se Mitrin Vega (16)
The third placed nation from four years ago have recovered well from being hammered by Starblaydia on the opening day. The River Dragons have been going nicely too with just one defeat to their name. There’s not a lot separating these two sides and penalties could well be the order of the day.
Prediction: River Dragon’s outfox the Foxes.
Bettia (5) v Oliverry (24)
The Aroras went through their group undefeated, only dropping points against ASMV. Oliverry won once in their four games. Given Bettia’s knack of scoring goals and Oliverry knack of conceding them this result shouldn’t be in doubt.
Prediction: Routine win for the Aroras.
Bedistan (9) v The Lowland Clans (12)
Two hugely experienced and just plain huge nations go head to head in Trevton City. Both nations have been noticeably unimpressive in previous AOCAF tournaments but have been fairly solid so far in this competition.
Prediction: The Stars shine brightest.
Hypocria (10) v Lamoni (8)
I think we’ve already covered this one.
Prediction: No comment.
Krytenia (6) v Manhatten Prime (Unranked)
Krytenia are another big name side who’ve never really hit form in the AOCAF. They turned on the style against the Lowland Clans but didn’t offer much more than that. Manhatten Prime opened their AOCAF account with a 6 - 0 defeat to Nedalia but recovered magnificently from that setback. If there’s going to be an upset it could be here.
Prediction: Jack’s fold.
Verdana - Home of the Beautiful Game
As reported in the Nedalian media, the game of football in Verdana is in pretty good shape. And we’d like to whole heartedly agree. The V3 (Bettia, Hypocria & Nedalia) all topped their respective groups. The teams didn’t just win. They won in style, scoring 42 goals in the process. Who knows? In the not too distant future perhaps another piece of silverware will be added to the Baptism of Fire, Cup of Harmony, AOCAF title and Under-21 World Cup that already reside on the continent.
Although we would like to point out to our Nedalian friends that all three of the Verdana sides came through unbeaten. Which is not quite how they reported it.

George yawned. He, like Ali and the rest of his mates, were bored. Not just bored, but absolutely bloody bored. Bettia weren't playing, so nstead they were lazing around in Gabalfa Gardens, Gabalfa's main park, listening to some radio punditry."...and next up for Bettia are Oliverry, who many would say were quite lucky to qualify from their group, having gained just four points. Indeed, many people around the region are predicting this to be an easy win for the green and gold - what do you think?"
"I think they're writing Les Oliverrais off way too easily. Any team that are as Takilan as we are have to be taken seriously. One thing's for sure - I'll be very disappointed if we didn't see a goalfest."
"Heh, I see what you mean. That's what Takilan footy is all about. And let's look at the wider picture - this has been a great tournament for Verdenan football as a whole aren't they?"
"Certainly. Just look at those league tables - three of them topped by Verdenan nations, namely us, Nedalia and Hypocria, all of us unbeaten - in fact we kinda let the side down by not coming through with a 100% record. And look at our island's other two representatives, Krytenia and Bedistan - both qualified as runners-up."
"So how do you see this tournament progressing?"
"Well, I'd love for us or one of neighbours to win this, but it's hard to see anyone but Starblaydia lifting the trophy - their form has been nothing short of imperious. I mean, to win their group whilst scoring ninetee..... fhfbjkszbbfe.... CRUNCH!" "Hey, what the hell?"
"What's going on?"
Ali lifted his head to see the radio in pieces and a silver streak heading into the bushes.
"It's one of those bloody Arora Argentises - it's eaten our radio!"
George huffed a heavy sigh. "Well that's just chuffing great, that is. What are we supposed to do now - talk to each other?"
"Sod it, let's go the Pie and Pixie. With any luck they'll be showing the Dragons game."
"Good... I really hope they thrash those bloody Karelans."

Nedalian Media Apologizes
The Nedalian reporter who wrongly stated that only 2 Verdenan teams went undefeated in the group stages was jailed for blasphemy, before finally being released to wails of boos from his fellow prison folks.
"We dont get down like that," stated 25-to-lifer Jones Himms. "Fact is, the Hypocrians fought and clawed their way to a 4-0-0. They deserve credit."
The reporter has been fired, hung (not literally), and left to dry in shame. It is rumored he might be on medication for depression after his catostraphic reporting mistake which has led to riots all over the country.
The Nedalian Media Assocation and the NFA have both apologized to their Verdena mates for the unfortunate incident. |

Lucas Thompson (RB) – 7, showed passion and grit, played as if conceding a goal would be a personal insult
John Clarke (CB) – 7, had plenty to do but coped admirably
Karl Heinze (CB) – 8, rock solid in the face of determined Lamonian attempts to break the deadlock.
Will Roberts (LB) – 7, Marked Sabatini, lost track of him once, but managed to keep him quiet for the rest of the game
Ethan Smith (DMC) – 6, playing much better and supported his defense well
Michael Donavan (MC) – 7, created the goal and tested the Lamonian defense on numerous occasions.
Felix DeSilva (AML) – 7, definitely one to watch in th future

Ross Jackson (S) – 5, had a very average game, seems to be in a bad run of form
Yo-explicitive removed-o Katakana (S) – 8, looked sharp and scored a valuable equalizer.
No subs used.
Lloyd Hunter Writes for the Manhattan Herald
The Manhattan Prime coach loyally stuck with the same team as started last game, and they repaid his loyalty in fine fashion with a well fought draw.
The team has raised their game admirably after their 6-0 thumping by Nedalia, to earn a valuable point in a surprising upset.
Lamoni got off to a good start, as forward Javier Sabatini scored to open the scoring after 20 minutes, but Yo-explicitive removed-o Katakana scored Manhattan’s first international goal to level the scores just before half time.
The 2nd half proved to be a gritty, hard fought affair, with neither side able to break the deadlock.
Shots rained down on both goals, but both nations’ defenses held, fighing tooth and nail to avoid conceding.
Ian Pierce, the Manhattanite manager was obviously very pleased. “This is a great result for us” he said, “the boys have themselves, me and the whole nation proud”.
Analysts have been quick to highlight the political indications of this match, billing it as a victory for ASPIRE, and a brave and determined performance against superior SDL opposition.
Manhattan fans are cheered by this spirited performance, and will be rooting for the lads in their critical next figure against Legalese.

No subs used.
Lloyd Hunter Writes for the Manhattan Herald
After recovering well from a 6-0 defeat to Nedalia by holding Lamoni 1-1, Manhattan Prime went into their 3rd group fixture against Legalese with confident running high throughout the team.
Coach Ian Pierce made 3 changes from the previous game, bringing in young Hitoshi Akita to replace Will Roberts at Left back, swapping Tobias Rauss for Ethan Smith in midfield, and dropping the disappointing Ross Jackson for German striker Karl Brandt.
Another determined performance rewarded his efforts, as Manhattan Prime held fancied Legalese to a well earned 1-1 draw.
Manhattan Prime pressed from the start, looking lively and enthusiastically chasing every ball. Their efforts paid off as DeSilva turned inside a Legalese defender, passed the ball to Michael Donavan who classily slotted home just before half time.
However after their goal Manhattan seemed to run out of steam, and Legalese came out after half time ready to press the Manhattanites hard. They’d soon surprised the Manhattan defense, and equalized.
Legalese then really began to pile on the pressure, but Manhattan Prime held on to secure another vital point.

OOC:
Lamoni a 4 nil drumming by Hypocria who according the the rank should be somewhat equal to Hypcoria and then "very easy wins". Scorinator is by nature random but KPB is a vital component in the determining Score. It seems Lamoni has been the major victim of randomness. I have not calculated the chance for this but do agree that Lamoni must have an amazing amount of Bad luck.
Once the tournament is over and if there are still complaints I will give Bedistan all my files. Results and all (including configuration file which was default for the 2.00 full release). Please if you still have concerns at the end of the tournament please be as specific as possible when raising those concerns with me. Thank you. |

Certain Doom Finds Dryads
That's it folks, show's over. In a result that surprised almost no one, the Myrtannia Dryads were unceremoniously booted from AOCAF XV by the unstoppable Nedalia Lions. Not like no one saw this coming when the Dryads slipped into mediocrity during the group phase.
Once again, the Dryads got on the board first, just six minutes in, when their one successful attack cut through the Lions' defense. September Rollock got a pearl of a pass from captain Dania Figary, and struck it hard into the bottom left corner of the Nedalian net. For the entire first half, the Dryads dominated on both sides of the ball, and went into the locker rooms up 1-0. For one half, it seemed as if the Dryads might pull off a shocker in the knockouts once again. Then, things imploded.
In the first ten minutes of the second half, the Lions equalised, then went ahead, scoring two goals in short order. Seven minutes later, they scored again and went up 1-3. At that point, the Dryads were proving incapable of anything on the field, so coach McNany made the decision to pull the starting eleven off again. The reserves fared no better than their starting counterparts, allowing two more Nedalian goals.
As the final whistle blew on a 1-5 thrashing, the Dryads Army actually booed their national team as it walked off the field. Many a Sun Burst was cast aside in the seats as the Myrtannians were sent home early.
"It's very dissapointing, to get routinely steamrolled like this. We have some serious work to do over the next four years," Figary sighed, the boos from the Myrtannian contingent still ringing in her ears, "We're a mess right now, and we need to pick up the pieces. Hopefully, the next AOCAF will be more kind to those of us nations who can't enter the World Cup and other global type events."
Hot-headed striker Deeann Massetti, once a heroine in Myrtannia for her leadership in AOCAFs XIII and XIV, was not present at the match. After head-butting a Pacitalian defender, and receieving a red card for it, Massetti was quietly sent home by the Dryads staff.
"This is aggravating... but we're still young in AOCAF, really. Give us another go and we'll do better," goal keeper Flo Krabel shrugged, "First, we need to work on our defensive lapses, then we need to get into a group without Starblaydia in it. Then we'll be able to improve on this horrid performance."
Krabel, 27, is rumored to be retiring after two sub-par performances against Pacitalia and Nedalia. Who will take her place is a mystery to all at the moment. Coach McNany, the woman who's led the Dryads to two consecutive knockout appearances, is also under fire. She too may well be gone by the next time the Dryads suit up for AOCAF.
To sum up the frustration the Dryads have been going through, midfielder Daisey Martingago said simply this, "Strike the tent. We're done."
And now, the AIR 4 predictions for the quarter-finals stage:
Nedalia VS Legalese
The lawyers aren't done yet, as they proved in a tightly-fought battle against the Warriors of Milchama, going into extra time before a result came about. This was the only upset of the round, as no one had Legalaese pegged to get through against the more experienced Milchamans. However, their surprise run ends with the Nedalia Lions, who have cruised into the quarts without so much as a dent in their armor. The Lions roar again and maul Legalese. The line: NED 5 - 2 LEG
Starblaydia VS Pacitalia
These two teams met on day one, when the Purple Peril humiliated the Blue Foxes 6-0. Since then, the Starblaydis RAWRCRUSHED anyone in their way, winning easily, but the Blue Foxes reawoke in the late group stage, registering convincing victories over Islands of Qutar and Myrtannia. The knockouts always seem to be Starblaydia's time, but the Mauve Menace had a strangely close, difficult match against the host Bazalonians, ultimately winning 2-1. Pacitalia, on the other hand, won convincingly again, 4-1 over ASMV. We think that will help the Blue Foxes avoid a crushing defeat against Starblaydia, and even gives them the momentum to have a shot at getting through to the semis again. While the champs have dominated in the group stage, it's Blue Fox time. The line: Pacitalia pulls off the biggest upset of the tourney and sends the champs home without that sixth cup. STB 2 - 3 PAC (AET)
Bettia VS The Lowland Clans
Both of these sides dominated their first round competition, and face each other in what could be an interesting match. The Stars are showing signs of life after a 3-0 win over Bedistan, and the Aroras slammed the door on the imposter Frenchmen of Oliverry 4-0. Bettia has been more consistant, though, and their offense will carry them into the semis once again, while the Stars get sent home once again. The line: BET 3 - 1 TLC
Hypocria VS Krytenia
Finally, the Hypos are back in championship form and ready to challenge for their second-ever AOCAF title. After seeing off a dissapointing Lamoni squad 4-0, they face a Krytenia side that beat off newcomer Manhatten Prime 4-1 next. While the Krytenians did well in a match they were supposed to win, they won't be able to stand up to the surging Hypos. It'll be fun to see how far Hypocria goes in this tournament, as a win most likely gives them a matchup with Bettia in the semis. Now that would be one hell of a match. The line: HYP 4 - 2 KRY.
Final:
MYR 1 - NED 5
(Rollock 6) (James 47 & 62, Kelly 55, Constantine 70 & 77 )

GRAHAM CITY SUN - Sports Section: AOCAF Coverage
Well, That Settles It Then
BAZALONIA - After a lackluster group stage convincing victories over Oliverry and Hiiraan, but very poor performances against Krytenia and Hypocria, one had to wonder just how long the Stars current run of decent luck will last. Well, The Stars-B pretty much answered that question emphatically with the game against Bedistan today, with a solid 3-0 victory. Captain Juri Totti said after the game "that it felt very good to get that win behind us. It's given us a lot of confidence in our ability to control the midfield and to protect ourselves from defensive errors. That is what happened against Hypocria and Krytenia. We simply let them get to us."
The Stars opened the scoring with Yusi Irileneev taking a cross from Geraldo and slicing it home off of a wicked half volley. Despite taking the lead just ten minutes in, the Stars still looked remarkably shaky. Bedistan nearly scored off of a miscommunication between Totti and Kowlaski, which led to a pass being stolen and taken in by the Bedistani striker, only to be stopped by a miraculous save from Merker Evilianovich, who directed it over the bar and into the crowd. "It was a little scary for a while," said winger Jerald Hansi. "We were really nervous about were this was going for our team. With the burnout of the A-team, were essentially the last hope for the nation this time around. Given our performances in recent days, it hasn't been all good."
But after halftime, were manager Casey Dellet really got them settled and into a rythym that really punctured the Bedistani defence. After a period of extended pressure, the Stars-B finally broke through with Geraldo scoring on a beautiful curling shot from the top-right side of the eighteen yard box. The Stars continued to dominate the possession, allowing Kowlaski and Smith to push up into the attack. The prescence of the two more attack backs allowed the Stars to really focus on the attack and controlling the possession, which the midfield led by Jared MacToutha did. The third and final goal came in the eightieth minute, which sealed the Stars-B victory, with Smith making a cross to the middle of the box, where Berthome careened it off the post, only to have it fall to the feet of substitute Ivan Houth, who placed it firmly in the back of the cage.
So now the Stars-B have made it as far as they have in previous AOCAFs, can they go any farther? With a tough match against Bettia, it doesn't look good, but could the Stars do something no other team has and actually win an prestigious international tournament?
Quarter-Finals Complete With Grudge Match
GAME, SET, MATCH RATINGS
A new rating system now in use here at the Sun, the three stages, Game, Set, and Match all indicate the level of domination/confidence in victory expected bythe team that is picked to win
Nedalia vs. Legalese @ Stadium 1
Well, Legalese has done well to get this far, upsetting Milchama (which we're always glad about it, so a pint on us for each player on the Legal team when this is over), but this is the end of the run Nedalia is about as good as it gets before running into the Purple Peril. Game, Set, Match to Nedalia
Starblaydia vs. Pacitalia@ Stadium 3
And the Purple Peril rolls on, this time running up against the Blue Foxes from Pacitalia, whom they absolutely destroyed in the group phase, 6-0. Now, money, houses, common sense, and reality demand that The Peril roll on, and with the results they got in the past, it looks like they will do so. But the Foxes recovered, and they will be in it for pure, bittersweet revenge. If the Peril ain't careful, they'll get steamrolled just like they did to everybody else. Game, Set, to Starblaydia and the Peril goes on
Bettia vs. The Lowland Clans @ Stadium 5
Humourously nicknamed by one disappointed fan as the "Falling Stars," The Stars-A and Stars-B are reknowned for their inability to anything but fail to meet expectations for over a century, and nothing has done to indicate anything different. But then again, when the Stars raced to a fourth place finish in the World Cup. But that was more than a century ago. Game to Bettia
Hypocria vs Krytenia @ Stadium 7
Another group stage rematch in which Krytenia took an absolute pounding to Hypocria. Despite Krytenia's resurgence, Hypocria is where it's at. The Blue Dudes definitely a candidate to stop the Purple Peril when it comes time to. Game, Set, Match to Hypocria.

OOC: I think that giving your files to Bedi is a good idea, Baz.
IC: Hypocria euthanizes worst Lamonian AOCAF team in history
This has arguably been the worst Lamonian AOCAF team in history. Only managing to score two points in the group stage of AOCAF XV, they were finally given the wooden spoon by Hypocria, 4-0.
During the game, the Lamonian performance was so bad that Myrtannian reserve forward Myong Tuman actually ran onto the field in full uniform and scored for the Hawks. After being carted away by Bazalonian security officials, the goal was not counted.
So to round out the final LBC broadcast for AOCAF XV, let's get to our predictions!
Nedalia vs. Legalese
Legal has had a good run, but Nedalia should spank them with the wooden spoon in this match.
Starblaydia vs. Pacitalia
A group stage rematch after the Purple Peril ran over Pacitalia 6-0, we expect that Pacitalia could pull off an upset, and there is nothing more pleasurable to Lamonian AOCAF fans (other than Lamoni winning the AOCAF cup) than watching Starblaydia be humbled.
Bettia vs. TLC
While this should be a good matchup, we expect that the Clansmen won't have the horsepower to win this match.
Hypocria vs. Krytenia
We expect that Hypocria will steamroll over our Krytenian allies in this match. Sorry Kryties, but Hypocria has a stronger motivational drive.

Hyppos Hammer Hawks
Stephen Murtagh reporting from Woolgolga, Bazalonia
It was a match-up that many back in the Autocracy feared. A second round encounter against a battered and bruised side from the Free Republic. Everyone knows of the dangers posed by a wounded animal and the hopelessly out of form Hawks were certainly wounded after the scathing criticism they were receiving from their own media following some abject performances. The blue and white army were haunted by visions of a resurgent Lamoni side brushing past the Hyppos and moving into the last eight. They arrived at the CBBC Dome, or settled down in front of their televisions back home, praying that those fears were unjustified. They should have had more faith.
Rather than a resurgent Hawks side, the Autocracy’s finest were faced by a Lamoni team for whom the tournament seemingly couldn’t end fast enough. Devoid of confidence, shattered by stinging criticisms and a crippling loss of form, the Lamoni players simply could not compete with a Hypocrian side playing at the top of their game.
There was no mistaking the real difference between the two side. The Hyppo’s attacking players are currently oozing self assurance. The Lamoni strikers are quite the opposite, although a friendly Myrtannian did pop up at one point to stick the ball in the back of the net. Both sides racked up a similar number of shots. But while nine of the Autocracy’s twelve efforts were on target , Lamoni could only trouble Lomaia twice from their ten efforts. Alex Sousa started the proceedings with a goal on seventeen minutes. Carlo Molinari scored a goal in each half to ease the Autocracy’s passage through to the quarter finals, his sixth and seventh of the tournament. A passage that was a assured when Bassano bagged a fourth as the Hyppo’s qualified for the Quarter Finals for the fourth time in their history.
Hypocria 4 - 0 Lamoni
Sousa
Molinari(2)
Bassano
“Of course I’m delighted”, coach Santoro told the press. “But this job’s a long way from done. The last time I was in charge of an AOCAF team was twelve years ago in Chicanada. We got to the quarters there too, and lost. I really don’t want to go through that again. There’s still a hell of a lot of work to do.”
Elsewhere in the second round Nedalia, Bettia and Krytenia enjoyed comfortable and predictable wins. Pacitalia beat Andossa Se Mitrin Vega with surprising ease. Legalese needed extra time to see of Milchama. The Lowland Clans received a huge confidence boast after winning their local derby against Bedistan. And the reigning champions Starblaydia just about overcame a determined effort from the hosts.
The HyperSport Upset of the Round
Pacitalia 5 - 1 Andossa Se Mitrin Vega
After throwing of their tag of final day chokers and actually qualifying from the group the stage was set for the River Dragons to have a real run at this title. The Blue Foxes clearly had other ideas and really turned on the style against the side from the north, producing a one-sided result that belied the close nature of this fixture on paper. The Pacitalians have recovered superbly after their dismal start and can now look forward to a mouth watering grudge match against those dastardly Men in Mauve in the last eight.
Quarter Final Preview
Nedalia v Legalese
We’ve all been raving about those damned Starblaydis but the Lions of Nedalia have been in fairly unstoppable form too. They swept through Myrtannia 5 - 1 in the last round and look like offering up more of the same against a Legalese side who have quietly sneaked through the competition. There’s a potential Nedalia/Starblaydia semi on the cards. Now there’s a thought.
Prediction: Those Lions just keep on roaring.
Starblaydia v Pacitalia
How’s this for a grudge match? The Purple Peril royally trounced the Blue Foxes in the opening group game and you can bet your house that the Pacitalians will be going all out for revenge. The Blues Foxes certainly have ability but do they really have what it takes to stop the Lilac Leviathan dead in it’s tracks?
Prediction: The Men in Mauve claim another victim.
Bettia v The Lowland Clans
Bettia are another side who are looking very, very good. We all know the Aroras can score goals but recently they’ve been generally keeping them out at the other end too. The Stars come into this fixture with a confidence building win over Bedistan under their collective belts. They’ll push the Bettians all the way but ultimately they won’t quite have enough.
Prediction: Brave Stars finally fall.
Next . . .
Hypocria (10) v Krytenia (6)
The reward for beating Lamoni is a rematch of the Autocracy’s opening fixture in this tournament, a tricky match against Krytenia's second string eleven. The opening game saw the Hyppos beat the Jacks 2 - 1 with goals from Molinari and Drago. A repeat performance would be most welcome. Unfortunately the men in cyan have shown an ability to turn on the style when they really need it as big wins over the Lowland Clans and Manhatten Prime have shown. Hopefully the Jacks will be too busy celebrating the first team’s recent third place finish in the World Cup to pay too much attention to this upcoming match.
Past Meetings
AOCAF XI (Bettia)
Group 3
Hypocria 1 - 3 Krytenia
Shirko
Semi Final
Hypocria 3 - 0 Krytenia
Kreska
Liberda
Jenas
AOCAF XIII (Krytenia)
Group A
Hypocria 1 - 3 Krytenia
Eagles
The record stands at two wins apiece from four previous meetings. Although it is nice to note that the last time the Hyppos faced Krytenia twice in a tournament was when they took the title at AOCAF XI. Maybe it’s an omen. |

River Dragons' fire snuffed in lopsided contest
Guess who's up next?
HUGHESTOWN, BAZALONIA (PSN) -- Pacitalia reached its third-straight AOCAF quarterfinals Friday evening, defeating the evenly-matched Andossa Se Mitrin Vega side by a less than even and less than flattering score of 5-1. The win brought Pacitalia's overall goal differential in the tournament above 0 for the first time (14/11 for +3 GD) while doing the opposite to the River Dragons, who, thanks to the massive victory, exited the fifteenth AOCAF with a negative goal ratio.
Troubling for most football fans at this AOCAF is the massive amount of wide victories favoured teams have been enjoying, while certain top-ten squads like Lamoni have utterly collapsed in the tournament. Some fans blame poor officiating and favouritism by referees and linesmen, but overall the Bazalonian hosting job has been a success, buoyed by flocks of corporate sponsors and increased interest in matches, both on the internet, on television and radio and in attendance figures. However, for now what is troubling is the task that lies before the Blue Foxes.
Nobody said the AOCAF was an easy tournament to win, and boy, did it just get a lot harder with the Pacitalians' next opponent: a rematch ensues with the Men in Mauve Saturday, and Pacitalia will surely be out to enact some revenge on Starblaydia in return for being trounced 6-0 in the first match of the group stage. It would be fantastic for the Blue Foxes to pull off the biggest upset since Myrtannia defeated Vilita in the last AOCAF tournament, and they could do it in style, avenging the horseshoeing they took at the hands of the Purple Peril while simultaneously booking their place in a second-straight AOCAF semifinal.
Many avid observers are pointing to the sudden, or at least perceived, decline in the quality of Starblaydi play with the arrival of the knockouts (Bazalonia's B squad managed to hold the Purple Peril to only a 2-1 win after the Starblaydis scored 19 goals in the group stage), while the Blue Foxes have managed a resurgent string of three victories after a loss and a draw. And those same observers say if any match could provide an upset, it might be this one, based on the direction the two squads appear to be heading in this AOCAF. However, those closely watching the tournament are still split basically even on who will win Saturday night's thriller.
Regardless, here's a recap of the Pacitalian-ASMV match.
Dragons outfoxed
Andossa Se Mitrin Vega appeared to be answering the calls of fans to end underachievement on the part of the River Dragons when they opened the scoring on a rather intelligent play. Broderick Wallenstein found fellow striker Kabe Tribby on the right side of the twenty-two-yard box and Tribby deked goalkeeper Cristianu Raduvani out of his shorts, something that rarely occurs when the Pacitalian starter is fully on his game. Raduvani stuck his foot out to tackle the ball away in a last ditch effort at defence but his clearance attempt deflected off Tribby's shin and right to an on-side Wallenstein who pocketed his first goal of the knockouts.
But it was not a moment too soon after that when the Blue Foxes equalised. Captain Veranace d'Amantano, fresh off his two-goal effort to secure second place for Pacitalia in the group stage, attempted to push the ball past Fidel Berte and was successful but Berte was quick to turn on his heel. He and centre-back Rob Hoeckman unintentionally sandwiched d'Amantano causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground. Referee Santos del Quin awarded a penalty kick where Andolfabio Vunghiasso scored to even things up at 1-1.
It is always said the Blue Foxes concentrate on defence in the first hour, and offence in the last thirty minutes. Whether that is a strategy that works most of the time is debatable, though it has been a successful setup for them. The Blue Foxes are way above W-L evenage when using this unofficial strategy, and it seems to work as the Pacitalians score nearly eighty percent of their goals between the 60th and 85th minutes. That held true again today, as the Blue Foxes shut down and exhausted Tribby and Wallenstein in the first 45 before starting to take advantage of the River Dragons' fatigue in the second half. It remained 1-1 all the way to the half.
Vunghiasso almost scored his second of the match in the 57th minute when Berte tried to clear. It hit the Pacitalian left midfielder on the lower left shoulder and Hoeckman and Berte cried for a handball whistle; however, del Quin urged play on, meaning Vunghiasso was on-side. He took a crack at the net but his wickedly fast shot curled just over the bar and into the crowd. ASMV keeper Georgeanne Mellet was more than ready for the shot had it been on target, as she dove back to try and fist the ball above the crossbar and landed squarely at the back of the net with a sheepish grin stapled on her face.
Three minutes later, though, Mr Vunghiasso would not be denied. Roles were suddenly and surprisingly reversed for a corner from the left as central midfielder Michelangelo Mascagnano lobbed a flying, curling shot right onto the head of Vunghiasso, who converted from near the spot, deflecting a beautiful ball low to the left off his cranium and past Mellet. Blue Fox fans were screaming their appreciation for "Il professore", as Vunghiasso is nicknamed for his clinical play style, as the first hour of the game came to a close with the score 2-1. They were unaware that the Pacitalian side had much more in store for them.
It was not five minutes later when the match was essentially secured by the Blue Foxes. d'Amantano fed Ambrosino Giurimano a beautiful pass that skated over the front-placed foot of Hoeckman (attempting to cut off possession). Giurimano then controlled the ball and sent a beautiful shot high past Mellet for a 3-1 lead. After that goal there was visible fatigue, but also apathy on the faces of the River Dragon players, as they knew their AOCAF journey was up, at least for now. On from their eighth-minute tally they just could not get past Manzanotti, San' Cristobal and Comanescu at defence, and they were continually run around at midfield for most of the match.
Mellet's exhaustion and frustration at the result and her play showed in the 74th as she slide-tackled d'Amantano just inside the box as he attempted to take a shot. del Quin instantly awarded a penalty kick, to the protests of the other players and the jeers of the fans, but when Mellet decided to give the ref her (very nasty) two cents, it was just too much for del Quin, who was far from impressed. The referee ended the goalkeeper's tournament sixteen minutes premature with a red card. d'Amantano effortlessly converted the penalty shot off backup keeper Levinia Colding with a sharp and low shot to the right as Colding dove the opposite way.
The final goal came seven minutes later in the 81st as d'Amantano's superb back heel found Ambrosino Giurimano, who, instead of opting to shoot himself, created a chance for right-midfielder Andreos Charisteas with a second back heel. Charisteas used Giurimano to block off Dana Obensheim and then spun off a rocketing shot that appeared to be going high. To the surprise and delight of Pacitalian fans, and the chagrin and disgust of the River Dragons supporters, it bounced off the crossbar and deflected down into the net for a 5-1 lead and victory with the same score.
So, as mentioned, the Blue Foxes reach their third-straight AOCAF quarterfinal and will try to both upset -- and enact revenge on -- the Starblaydis in that match to reach their second-straight AOCAF semifinal. Saturday will prove to be yet another example of top-flight football regardless of who wins it.
From Hughestown, Bazalonia:
Pacitalia 5 : 1 Andossa Se Mitrin Vega
PAC: Vunghiasso 13' (p), 60'; Giurimano 65'; d'Amantano 74'; Charisteas 81'
ASMV: Wallenstein 8' |
