1-0 Ryan Williams with a good header after 25 minutes. Fluminese have been on top for the past 15 minutes, but haven't created a clear chance yet. They are a very quick team (and clearly better than any team from our group), but have little structure to their play and a bad tendency to go down easily. It'll be a real challenge for our lads to adapt and handle that challenge. EDIT: Fluminese equalised with a flowing move on 28 minutes. Arthurworrey tried to dribble out of defence, but gave the ball away and they scored directly from that.
1-1 at half time, a fairly even first half which Fluminese shaded. However, I'm too tired now. So I'm off to bed. Good luck, lads!
Fulham giving a good account of themselves,coming into the game more, a solid team performance,my only criticisms is sambu appears a little slow, and playing to far up the pitch.COYW,bring on the next 45min
Fulham 4-3 on Penalties Marek Rodak saved the last of 5 after both teams missed the 4th. Play Reysol in the final - but many will be very tired/carrying knocks from a tough physical game.

The starting line-up was: Rodak;Passley,Arthurworrey,Grimmer,Kavanagh; Christensen, Sambou; Williams (R),Woodrow, Tankovic,Banya. Hyndman came on for a slightly under par Tank, George Williams for his namesake Ryan and Jordan Evans for Charlie Banya in the second half. They're all heroes of course but Jack Grimmer gets my MOTM.
Thanks rosc. Good to hear you back on your feet. Looking forward to tomorrow's final v KASHIWA REYSOL. Kick off is 18.00hrs their time - 11pm our time PS Don't forget the clocks go forward an hour tonight !
Have a look at BMJ's reaction to the Dallas Cup performance on his qpr preview vid (about 7m.55s) - look at those smiles !
He did seem quite chuffed, Tosh. Liked his comment that, "I should have two, three or more extra players next year, and they're young".
To all those of you who will be staying up tonight to watch our lAcadamy side in the Dallas cup final. I am sure they will give a good account of themselves,although being the underdogs. lets hope there are some future stars that can be spotted. "Best of luck lads"
Evenong Rosc, getting excited now, I hope as well that the guys play to their capabilities and that compete. We are lucky to be graced with some good talent, let's hope the occasion does not get to them. COYW
