[FM14]Johno's career

FC Shakhtar Donetsk

-----------------------------------
September and October 2021



Completely battered Arsenal Kyiv with 4-0 win.

AIK couldn't cope with our attacking and we scored all over the place.

Disappointing it took us 79th minutes to get a point but should have won it in the end.

Decided to play my best XI against some team Looking to win this cup this season.

Handed Fedotov his debut and scored within 3 minutes kicking off. Diego conceded a penalty which they level the score on 38th minutes. Thanks to own goal from their goalkeeper saw us pick up 3 points. Disappointing performance also.

Mark Clattenburg fucked us over. We raced to 2-0 with goals from Ozil and Maurin, we conceded 2 goals in succession on 43rd and 45th minutes, which did annoy me awfully alot. Mikhailov put us ahead with an free kick. Clatternburg somehow decided to sent off Diego and awarded a penalty which cost us the game and was never an sending off nor penalty in first place and they went on to beat us with 2 late goals. Appealed against the decision after the game.

Bounced back from that awful defeat with 2-0 win over Olexandriya.

Goals from Samsonov x2 and Ozil saw us beat Karpaty at home, 3-0.

Battered Bursaspor away from home and Mikhailov caused them alot of problems and bagged 2 goals.

No surprised to see us scoring for fun against IIIchivets

We faced Olexandriya in the cup and won the game comfortably.

It was Samsonov's day against Dnipro Should have got 5 but one was disallowed for no reason. We went behind after Di Leo mistake led them to scoring first. Samsonov got us level with an close range header on 15th minutes. Got us another goal 3 minutes later after goalkeeper parried Palaicos's shot into his path to put us in front. Bagged his hat trick on 31st minutes after Titov's cross went into the box which Beneitz headed it across the goal and Samsonov half volley into the net He got his fourth goal against them, Mikhailov put him through one on one with the keeper and put the ball into left bottom corner. We conceded 2 late goals on 63rd and 84th minutes.



Delighted to see Ozil have been performing brilliant for us since arriving here.

November 2021



We kicked off November with 2-1 win over Bursaspor. It was even matched game and we has chances to score before Ozil put us ahead on 35th minutes with an strike inside the bvox after Cornelius put him through against the keeper. Cornelius scored on 70th minutes to double our lead after heading in Mikhailov cross. They scored 6 minutes later to set up nervy finish to the game but we manage to held on in the end.

It was raining goals against Goveria I wonder what Maurin's parents or lover been giving him before the match He was superb for us and got 2 assists alongside with his 6 goals.

Decided to stick with the same XI against Dynamo Kyiv. We went behind a minute before half time after mistake from Diego, their forward put them ahead. Maurin, level the score on 50th minutes with an strike inside the box. Vasijev put us in front on 69th minutes, beat his marker and ran onto Maurin's ball to poke the ball home. Maurin's goal took us to 3-1 lead against them. Their goalkeeper caught our ball from corner kick and bizarrely the keeper was about to kick it and Maurin took it off him and scored an freak goal They pulled oner back after mistake from Di Leo on 90th minutes /o\

Completely demolished AIK. Decided to rest few players. After the match, we was confirmed we have qualified for the next round. Real Sociedad have also, despite them suffering 4-3 loss against Bursaspor. Our last match will be at home against Sociedad to confirm who will finish top of the group, I am top by 3 points at the moment.

Another brilliant performance from the team to stuff Volyn Not surprised to see Maurin still scoring.
