I have posted my Division 7 games in over 3 days now, so this was basically my last match before moving up. I was playing as Borussia Dortmund and I got matched against someone using Santos. Mirror matches are always easier, but this one was chill too. I knew I had to finish strong in Div 7 before climbing, so I just wanted to play my game and get the win.
The match was easy but I missed a lot of chances 😂 I was playing too much possession football — passing, passing, passing. I didn’t want to rush anything. First goal came from Lamine Yamal. The ball came from Kevin De Bruyne with a perfect cross, right around the edge of the 18. Yamal controlled it and fired a shot that went in clean. After that I still had chances but I kept wasting them. I should’ve been 3 or 4 goals up in the first half alone.
Second goal was Batistuta. Same kind of build up again. More passing around the box, we waited for the opening, and Bati was there to finish it. That was it for the game really. 2-0 and my opponent didn’t really create anything serious. I didn’t overperform, I just played calm. No rush, no panic. Just kept the ball moving until something opened up.
So with that win, that’s me officially upgraded to Division 6 😂 I won 2-0 against Santos, and Div 7 is done for me. I won’t be posting about Division 6 for now, I just want to grind quietly and get better first. But this was a good way to end Div 7 — easy win, two goals from Yamal and Batistuta, and I’m moving up.
