MD 05 NOMADES DE PARIS 0 - 0 FC BERLIN: REVIEW
Two teams yet to win, with the latter of the two yet to score as well.
Written by: Saad Maan
Following Paris narrow escape from relegation, they've looked a much more stable side. However, the opposite can be said for Berlin. After spending the majority of their existence in the lower halves of the table, their luck might just run out. Without a single goal scored, a bruised Berlin side take on a confident and rejuvenated Paris. Neither Paris nor Berlin are known for their marksmanship, and the first half was very telling. The only moment of danger came in the 40th minute, when Corrado Furlan sent John Tackler to the shops with a lovely dummy feint. As Furlan approached the byline, with acres of space ahead of him, he cut it back to Lonzo Concic. In unknown territory, he struck the ball with great power, only to have Remmington catch it with ease. Going into the second half, no tactical adjustments were made by either side, as they both appeared happy to split the points. In the 74th minute, in an attempt to break the deadlock, Mark Cole received and turned with the ball near the edge of the penalty box. But once more, Remmington got to the shot with relative ease. Despite the momentum being on Paris' side, it was Berlin who seemingly would walk away with all three points. Diego Fantastico, following a combination play with Romeo Keitel, was through on goal. With only the keeper to beat, the Argentinian fluffed his lines, shooting straight at Humphree Klock. Rimjob Remmington, goalkeeper for Berlin, and Steven May, defender for Berlin, fought for their lives on the pitch, helping Berlin escape with another point despite not scoring a single goal. Paris, like the Germans, continue their winless streak, raising questions about their ability to take charge of games.
