HIGHLIGHTS OF THE THIRD WEEK OF SEASON 74

Hey! Kyrunio here, today I'm going to talk about the most interesting matches that took place in the third week of season 74. So let's get to the point.

The first match I'll focus on was the clash between BERSERKERS and F C Manchester City. The teams faced each other on Wednesday, March 19th at 12:35 in the National Cup.

The match was not without colour, the first goal for the hosts was scored very quickly. DiabloX666 decided to go solo on the wing, threw the ball into the penalty area, and BASWIL was already there, who converted this wonderful pass into a goal.

The visitors did not lose pace after the hosts' first goal and responded just as quickly, because after 3 minutes, they scored a goal. накатикаявъебука passed the ball in the penalty area to the excellently positioned MigelDanny, who managed to score from a sharp angle.

The match calmed down for a while, but in the 27th minute GGattuso released a perpendicular pass to MemphisDepay, who caught up with the ball and beat the goalkeeper from a sharp angle.

The guests did not enjoy the lead for too long, BASWIL scored again 3 minutes later. This time after a quick pass from Widzewiak Łódzki, for whom it was already the 14th assist this season.

A moment before the change of halves, DiabloX666, the player assisting in the first goal, received a yellow card for an unsightly foul on the opponent. The same player left the pitch only 20 minutes after the change of halves. He was replaced by Treecko.

Just a minute after the aforementioned player came on, SarkisOvsepjan caused a penalty for the hosts. dejv17 converted it with a confident shot, who did not know at that time that he would become the hero of his team.

The next 15 minutes of the match were only and exclusively changed. On the guests' side, GGattuso and Gondon left the pitch, and Giannini 666 and Lox003 came on. The hosts replaced krzyśkasz4284 with Harash.

The 85th minute of the match is coming, the guests have changed their tactics to ultra offensive, in this action we saw several quick passes exchanged by накатикаявъебука and MemphisDepay, the latter was the author of the goal that equalized the score.

The regular time of the match has ended. The score is 3:3, time for extra time!

A moment before the end of the first half of extra time, ZinedineZidane1 patted the ball with MemphisDepay, who scored with a cross from outside the penalty area. It was a wonderful goal, he scored a hat-trick with it.

The guests did not enjoy the lead for too long, because 3 minutes after the change of halves, Pan Czarter threw the ball from a free kick to the short post, where dejv17 was, who leveled the score with a confident shot from the pike. The entire stadium was in shock!

The match dragged on until the 127th minute. It ended with the score 4:4 and in the end it was the guests who advanced thanks to away goals, drawing both matches.

The second match that I will discuss today took place on Saturday, March 15 at 8:00 PM as part of the European Tournament. It was played between FC Mayaply and LIONHEART.

The shooting started in the 12th minute of the match, Lomax20001 dribbled past a defender and passed to SaaJuu, who took the ball with his sole and scored with his tip.

The visitors scored just 10 minutes later. skiloffy chłopak LH recorded an assist, passing the ball into the penalty area to Sikorka96, who passed the goalkeeper and shot into an empty net, equalizing the score of the match.

The first half ended 1:1, apart from two goals there were no more interesting actions in it. So it was time for the second half.

In the 68th minute of the match, the skiloffy chłopak LH fouled an opponent in front of his penalty area, which resulted in a free kick. The player received a yellow card for his foul.

Tudzi goes for a free kick, the goalkeeper checks for the last time if the wall was properly positioned. The referee finally blew the whistle, and GOOOOOOOOOOOOL! The shooter made an incredible shot under the crossbar.

In the 84th minute of the match, a key change for the further fate of the match took place on the pitch. Poruś left the pitch on the visitors side and Aras78 came in his place.

A moment after the start of the stoppage time, CygaStm passed the ball into the penalty area to Aras78, who received the ball and put it into the net with all his strength! We have a draw!

The visitors had one more chance to take the lead in the stoppage time, but they failed to score. The match ended with the score 2:2. In the rematch, LIONHEART confidently defeated their opponent and the match ended with the score 5:1 and ultimately they advanced to the next stage of the competition.

That's all from me for today, I hope to see you in a week. I encourage you to read the articles submitted by other journalists! See you!

ACHIEVEMENTS OF “CLASSIC” PLAYERS #8

Dear Readers,

I am Andrzejek and from this place I would like to welcome you warmly to the next edition of Sports Journal. We have been writing about the same topic for several articles, and soon it will be time for another series, however, what I have prepared for you I will keep it as a secret for now🙂 Let's get started!

jestemurban

I have already described various positions for you, but this time I would like to focus my choices in this article on the people without whom the club would not exist, namely the owners. Since we are talking about them, it would be a sin not to describe the undisputed number of presidents, and that is jestemurban. It is normal that in such a fruitful series there cannot be no person who built the power that is "Black Stars". Urban usually plays his matches as a right midfielder and since the very start of the server he has been in the top of the best players of the entire classic server. Does a player of such rank have surprisingly good numbers? Let's check him out!

League: 37G/97A in 120 matches

CT/ET: 11G/32A in 36 matches
LC: -
Friendlies: 38G/97A in 103 matches

which gives a total of 86 goals and 226 assists in 259 matches. As for a player of the highest caliber, these numbers are in my opinion excellent because it is worth noting how big the competition is in the club for the midfielder position and the fact that his team only competes with the best at the highest level of the game.

As for Urban's individual achievements, we will find a medal for second place among the best midfielders for the second season, first and second place in the Top of The Week in Trainings.

Listing club trophies in this case does not make much sense because people who are interested in the classic server know very well how many trophies the club called Restrictions has on its account and all the top cups have belonged to them since the beginning of the server.

Tomković

The next owner of the club, but this time an offensive midfielder, is Tomković, a player of the overall ranking with position 73. The second club in this player's career, Cosa Nostra (previously called Nankatsu SC II), trusted this player enough to let him take over the lead of the team, which has recently been performing impressive training sessions, gaining podium places in the Top Team of the Week (in Training). Can Tomković also do it on the pitch? Let's find out!
League: 339G/40A in 148 matches
CT/ET: 12G/10A in 20 matches
LC: 24G/4A in 17 matches
Friendlies: 211G/21A in 106 matches

which gives a total of 586 goals and 75 assists in 291 matches. As for an attacking midfielder, the number of goals scored is impressive, but does it translate into the number of medals? As it turns out, medals are not the only individual achievements of this player, because Tomković even won the silver boot for the fifth season in the club he owns. In addition, we will find a medal for winning 2nd place as the best assist and scorer in the 3rd and 5th seasons of the game for appearances in the Spanish league and a medal for third place in the category of the best scorers for representing his first club in his career, the Azzurri.

Does it look just as good in trophies? Absolutely!

2x Spanish National Cup

2nd place in Top Team of the Week

3x 3rd place in Top Team of the Week

2x first place in Spanish league

2nd place in Spanish league

MagicPlayer

The wheel of fortune is rolling, and fate wanted it that way that the next owner of the club in our ranking also plays in the same position, this time as a central midfielder in a club with a huge history in the world of FootballTeam, and we are talking about LIONHEART. The owner of the "Lion's Heart" began his adventure with the club relatively recently, on 18.01.2025, but as you can see, this does not prevent him from gaining in the eyes of his teammates and fans and being promoted to the most important position in the club in a very short time. MagicPlayer previously represented the colors of clubs such as Broski Wolfpack FC and TyskieFC. 

What numbers did our last competitor in today's article achieve? Let's check!

League: 138G/112A in 96 matches
CT/ET: 3G/2A in 14 matches
LC: 14G/23A in 22 matches
Friendlies: 82G/65A in 104 matches

which gives a total of 237 goals and 202 assists in 236 matches. The number of assists is not amazing, but it is clear that MagicPlayer very often has to join offensive actions, as evidenced by nearly 250 goals in less than 6 seasons. The only medal we will find in this player is 2nd place among the best midfielders in the German 2B league for representing the current club.

As for the club's showcase summarizing his entire career so far, we will find such cups as:

National Cup of Germany and Italy

1st place in the Italian league

1st place in the German second league

3rd place in the German second league

That's it for today's article. Thank you very much for your attention and see you next time!

WAITING FOR APRIL!

Another big event for the FootballTeam is coming soon. At the end of March, there will be a big merger of the Legacy server with Speed. Right after that, on April 1, new league games will start, which will also undergo quite a revolution. There will be as many as 8 different leagues, and the SuperLeague will change from a league game into a cup for the winners of the individual 1 leagues. It must be admitted that it sounds interesting and may breathe new life into the Legacy server, which has become quite lively after the last merge, and the games have become more competitive. However, the main question that also arises is the question of how long the competition will be more equal and whether the numerous mergers will not cause the number of active teams fighting for the highest goals to quickly decrease again, and each player will only strive for quick successes right away.

In general, the whole of April promises to be quite intense. In addition to what I wrote above, we should expect task updates, new special collections and other minor changes. So what should we pay attention to in the last days of March?

It is certainly worth making sure that we do not have two accounts on the same email, which the administration regularly reminds us about, because the merge will lead to the loss of one of them, which is probably something none of you want.

Additionally, it is worth reviewing your OVERALL tasks and individual SKILLS. If we are close to a given threshold in which we can collect the prizes we are interested in, I think it is worth doing these few training sessions, so as to still catch bonuses, drinks, success balls, and especially triumph balls. Probably at the beginning of April, these prizes will no longer be valid and will be replaced by new ones, which we could read about in one of the Questions & Answers editions. Each of us must decide for ourselves what we care about more and which prizes are more valuable to us. In my humble opinion, all the prizes that we currently have to collect up to 2500 of each skill are definitely worth training and thanks to them we can enrich our account in the game quite a lot.

In April, new special collections should also appear, in which you can get the latest drinks for training, work, as well as large energy resources and single stars. If any of you would like to exchange this collection, and perhaps earn money on this new module, then I think it is worth keeping the crystals or diamond items that we have on our account. After all, if there are willing people, especially fresh after the change, all these things can gain in price and be a good business for every trader in FootballTeam.

Additionally, there has been a lot of speculation that the Speed ​​server has quite big problems with threads, which are needed to create items. If this is confirmed, many of the threads, especially the blue ones, can gain in value and also be a good source of income.

Of course, everything you have read in this article, at least in terms of tasks and the market, is only and exclusively my speculation and does not necessarily have to take place in April. It is definitely worth following the information from the administration until the very end. However, I think that April will be full of tasks, collections and new emotions in the games, which will probably complement the long event with numerous facilities for training and developing our accounts.

At the very end, I would like to invite you to a survey about the upcoming changes in the game, because I will definitely come back to you in one of the April editions of the newspaper with questions about your feelings. Let April not disappoint us and let spring be a good harbinger not only outside the windows, but also in FootballTeam.
