Reds Fall Short in CWC Final
Liverpool lost 1-2 to Tigres failing to add the only trohphy missing in its cabinet.
This is what their manager had to say: “Tigres were the favorite. They have a fantastic team that can achieve everything they want. But that is as far as odds go to justify our loss. We did play a great game. Unfortunately we started slow, fell behind quite early in the game and their second goal before the half time was hard to swallow. The second half was completely ours despite falling a man short. The game was there, the chances were there, but we couldn’t finalize. All I can say is that I’m proud of how my boys performed. Can’t take anything away from this night, it just wasn’t our time!”
Liverpool manage to pull a goal back at the 87th minute culminating a series of back to back chances. But it turned out be too little too late for the Red Army, experiencing their first halt in an otherwise formidable campaign.
Thanks Gabriel. It was about time and with the right team :)
All teams playing an international competition during the season.
Nothing, the odds of getting a goalkeeper are 1 out of 9, so you just had bad luck…unless they’re all great keepers, in this case it would be good luck! :D
Yeah…I kinda agree with you, but this would give bigger countries even more advantage because they usually have more auto-qualified teams…and how many points? The same amount you’d get if you won both qualifying matches?
How many teams count for the ranking?
All or has a specific number?
I have receive about 5 goalkeepers in 7 new youths! What is happening?
We should recalculated international points. Like: I have reach CL final and I got less points than Valladollid. This happened because last season I won CL and I didnt have to play qualify. So I should contribute to Spain a bit more receiving some points for my auto-qualify.
I think it is the first time since I started play in Spain that we made more international points than Brazil. Unfortunally today all youths are almost the same.
Congratulations, Dhimitri! I really enjoy reading what you post in this thread :D
RED ARMY INVADES EUROPE
When the Battle of Berlin ended in May 2, 1945, Marshal Zhukov of The Red Army called Stalin and asked if he could continue the advance all the way to the Atlantic. Naturally, we can easily imagine that such proposal was refused by Stalin, otherwise we would be still calling each other “COMRADE”.
Decades later, another Red Army has invaded Europe. This time, no order has been issued to halt its progress. Europe has but one color, the LIVERPOOL RED!!!
In a night that would be remembered forever, two teams clashed for the ultimate European glory. On one side stood the Spanish giants of Real Sporting de Gijon, who were aiming to score the trophy for the third time in a row. On the other side, there stood the English has been giants of Liverpool, desperate to reclaim the glamors of the past. Only a season ago, the same pair met in the semis with Gijon humiliating the Reds in a show of power and tenacity.
This time around, a stronger and hungry Liverpool came more confident to clash with an aged Spanish side which could still make use of all the teeth in its mouth. The game started strongly for the Reds who enjoyed a three good chances before opening the score with a wonderful Gandara outside shot in the 16th minute. 1-0 for Liverpool and the past glory was not past anymore.
After falling a goal down, Gijon increased pressure, storming the Liverpool goal again and again. But each time, attempts by Claudio and Calabrese found an unbreakable wall in Adolfo “The Black Spider” Berrugoso", who ended the match as MOTM with a perfect 10 rating, after stopping 18 shots for a clean sheet.
Interesting enough, Berrugoso was bought from Gijon three seasons ago for the sum of 28 million. It was the first buy for Liverpool when they returned to Premier League. 3 years later, Berrugoso made his former teammates pay for letting him go with the most outstanding performance of his career.
With the first half ending 1-0, the Red Army opened the second half in the same fashion as the start of the game. And again, in the 15th minute of the second period, the Spanish giants were found unprepared as Joel Jay, who had made his entrance in the game only 5 minutes earlier, made it 2-0 for his team with an excellent personal incursion from the the other end of the midfield.
2 minutes later Gijon had a chance to start kick its comeback when a penalty kick was awarded. But Berrugoso stood out once again, collecting the shoot from Calabrese in his arms. One wonders if Calabrese will call Berrugoso after the match to congratulate him. With the PK chance wasted, the Spanish offense seemed to had lost its confidence, and the rest of the game proved quite futile with both teams playing an opened but more balance game.
At the end of the night, the deserving Reds collected their third CL trophy, but their first in 34 years.
Fields of Anfield Road
Outside the Shankly Gates
I heard a Kopite calling
Shankly they have taken you away
But you left a great eleven
Before you went to heaven
Now it’s glory round the Fields of Anfield Road
All round the Fields of Anfield Road
Where once we watched the King Kenny play (and he could play)
We had Heighway on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
Of the glory round the Fields of Anfield Road
Outside the Paisley Gates
I heard a Kopite calling
Paisley they have taken you away..
You led the great 11
Back in Rome in 77
And the redmen they are still playing the same way
All round the Fields of Anfield Road
Where once we watched the King Kenny play (and he could play)
We had Heighway on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
Of the glory round the Fields of Anfield Road
Liverpool claims its 2d treble in history

Season is over though, hope I survive till the next one begins and I can try to apply your advices.
No one interested? He can play for 4 seasons at least. I’m not gonna sell him for peanuts, but the price is negotiable.
You need at least 1 striker with 90+ shooting and a goalkeeper with speedy+goal > 180
As general recomendation you need more players with average skills greater than 83.
With your current squad I would try:
Strikers: Ramos (center), Abreu (RC)
Middle: Morais (LC+1), Vogel (LC 0), Barrientos (C 0), Cuadrado (RC 0)
Defenders: Gallego (C+1), Harun (C 0), Fraga (RC 0), Reynaud (LC 0)
Goal: Armstrong

bullshit!!! come on man! I am in a race for a championship with 2 other teams valladolid and real gijon and only lost a game before the game againt Real! ok 5-0 I can understand the guy is strong still 5-0 is a lot to lose for a team that had 1 lost before that… but then I get beat at home 1-3 VS FUCKING NO MANAGER TEAM LIKE GRENADA I mean yeah I can understand happends to everyone but why like on 2 last games of the season and at home…..
I have spent quite a bit of time on Rubysoccer, only to lose almost all my matches with PSV. Obviously I am doing something wrong, but I’m not sure what… even after improving my squad by loaning some strong payers, they kept losing. So what am I doing wrong? I have tried 442, 433, 352, didn’t seem to matter. My tactics are basically going forward when having the ball, going backwards when not having the ball. Am I missing something?
And how long will I survive on 8%, now that the season (on the fastticker) is over?

Some good players for sale, prices negotiable so make any offers.
if you dont have enough time then appoint admins who CAN ban these ppl
and when are you going to tackle the bullshit transfer prices
example est value 7m and ppl are listing them at 50m
Right now it doesn’t, the short-term plan we have on this matter is to give advantage on negotiations for teams with the same country as the player. After that we will probably implement some kind of adaptation penalty when a player change countries. I’m not completely sure about the limitation on the number of players in the squad, though, but of course this is debatable :)
In the Dutch league, there is a team without any Dutch players. Also I think there are more Brazilians then Dutch players playing in the Dutch league (not counting youths). Now in real life, this is not possible: there are rules limiting the amount of non-eu players (and rules for limiting the amount of foreign players are considered). Also there are disadvantages for having (a lot of) foreign players: players can get homesick, having trouble with the cultur or language difference etc.
I am wondering if country does matter in any way in RubySoccer. If not, should it not be, at least a bit?
Ok. Thanks for letting me know Joseppi :)
Only humans at the minute Steve, but they are working on CPU teams doing the same.
Does this happen in the game or is it only humans that loan players?
It may be the result of changes made to the player development a long time ago…or maybe just a bad generation :)
