I was terrified haha their last play started on 80 yard so i was like woho, but all those long yard passes they get then made me super nervous. Field Goal attempt miss??? Rarely see that, infact i have never seen it. But im very happy this was the first time it occured to me

Will make a match report as soon as im calm again

Match 5: New Zealand vs Sweden
Result: 49 vs 52
Well played: Gabriel Nyberg & Simon Lindberg

7:30 AM, New Zealand. Another insanely exciting match took place here today. We won barely with 3 points thanks to the iron will from the Swedish team to reach the World Cup.

Before the match start I knew this was gonna be a close match, we had lost against them last match with once again 3 points due to a last 5 second touchdown pass. To prevent this from happen again i tried to change my tactic and adjust it to their TE focused passing play with New Zealand legend, Aaron Oldas TE.

The match started out very well with 2 touchdowns and a field goal in first quarter versus New Zealands 7 points. But in the second quarter we struggled hard to defend our endzone and let through 21 points.

But those first quarters was the beginning of an very nervous 4th. Mike Leota finds Aaron Old for an 66 yard pass? we manage answer with a touchdown by Simon Lindberg after a couple of succesfull passes towards their endzone. Directly Mike Leota answered with a 57 yard pass, once again to Aaron Old. Another touchdown comes in for Sweden after some struggle.
Last 3 minutes of the game were New Zealands, starting from their 20 yard line due to some fumble by Dylan Cowen. They still manage to recover thanks to a long pass to Dan Barron and end up on 25 yards from endzone. AMAZINGLY From first down, Mike Leota makes 3 incomplete pass in row which lead to one last attempt to score by Philip Reddy. He has to make this 42 yard kick else game is over...I remember my heart beat hard when i wait for the last match update to arrive, HE MISSED!

Amazing a game very much alike the last game versus New Zealand but this time with a victory for Sweden!

Individual player:
Gabriel Nyberg After a poor performance in the last matches he truly stepped up this game. 16 recieves and 290 yards in total brought him to 3 Touchdowns.

Jens Henriksson We surprise the crowd with a new player on the field. Jens has increased in skill just perfect lately thanks to his Team in Holland. During aftermatch interview his eyed were filled with happy tears when he explained how proud he was to be here and represent the National Team. Coach Marcus commented that He is very impressed by his performance and promise the crowd that we'll see more of Jens in the future.

Albin Fredriksson OL/Second Kicker stepped in as OL (his original position) and replaced Kristoffer Ström who just due to caps cant perform enough as starter OL.

Next match is up next Friday against Switzerland. We managed to beat them last time and we must do it once again to secure our spot to the world cup. Come on Sweden! We're almost there!

Short Announcement
Poland just recently beat Switzerland which increased the % of us getting through !
Now we have to take down Switzerland one more time and Colombia after that. Then we're through!
