Belluschi was out suspended after picking up 5 yellow cards… the question was, how deeply would his influence be missed?
...
Fernando Belluschi's consolation goal in the 89th minute was as close as we got.
...
In the 12 team league where everybody plays each other once, we finished with a 7-2-2 record with Brandão sharing the golden boot with 10 goals and him and Fernando Belluschi among the top players in the league.To make the night even sweeter, we won our 500th overall game (48th team to do so) and climbed 55 places in the rankings to 43!There was a lowlight for the evening too - finishing 2nd in the Free 4 All, losing the 10 team league to Carter FC by just 2 points after 27 games.Again, Brandão and Belluschi were the two most consistent players in the tournament but our two narrow losses to Carter (0-1 and 2-3) were the difference between winning and losing.
...
Belluschi was back and VÃlchez handed his debut and it was a trademark Belluschi strike from distance that separated the two teams.Belluschi was then the architect in the second goal for Brandao.This match showed just how important our captain is to our team and the major role he plays for our side.Worryingly, El-Hadji Diouf had another shocker and needs to perform in our next match.
We're now 1-1-1 after 3 games… Belluschi showed what a star he is in our last match and Diouf is struggling badly.Keep an eye on this blog for more updates over the next few days.
