Trinquant 1 - LXG 3
by Paulus Romanus
On a sunny (35 °C) Belgian day the LXG Reds signalled their intention not to let anything as trivial as a mounting injury list derail (Simon paella, Marco Primadonna, Martijn Van Dikkenekker) their fantastic season drive as they smashed 3-1 poor Trinquant beers' drinkers on a marvellous away performance.

Tactical preparations were conducted by Coach Paulus Romanus in Barrio on Friday night with players listening carefully (Enola Gay???) and drinking 'eau platte' all night. Vic Napoleon, Peter Puskas, Flo Lafayette, Endrik Panther and injured Martijn Van Dikkenekker were explaining coach the hard life of a player, always choosing between putas and serious life with high constraints! Friday night...they went for alcohol!
Reminiscences of Friday night were clearly visible on Napoleon face and only the high notes of 'La Marseillese" sung by waiting LXG mates in front of Kitty O'Shea could wake him (a bit) up. 'No problème coach' Nap said 'tu vas voir aujourd'hui, j'ai le plein de gasoline qu'il faut!'. Coach Romanus and President McMullan, King of Alcohol, incredibly doubted.
Luckily after a derailed Rumanian GPS in Montgomery, the Reds went driving on, on, on! Towards Rosières, the daily battlefield! Faces were red (quite cold as Marco Lazio dressed a ugly Lazio Cap) and high passion was clear in the dressing room to continue the fantastic unbeaten run in 2007! Come on lads!
Immediately, Vivien la belle vie and Flo Lafayette both were devastating in the left wing and the first even scored twice before Gigi Bip Bip 'too fast' incredibly netted the second in a clear offside! It must have been the alcohol effect of a Friday night!
Not for the first time this season, Endrik Panther was wrong in tempo, BUT, what shall we say to this greatest legionnaire fighting always so hard?
Peter Puskas was unstoppable on the right wing while defence Mc Scouser was perfectly singing a ballet dance on a brand new soccer pitch and laughing around by looking other games rolling on a muddy pitch! Trinquant defence was totally incapable of stopping the brilliant LXG wingers as game went on.
LXG Ladies supporters, Beata, Teresa and Valeria, finally arrived to scream their passion louder and louder and Cehyun's son was admiring LXG, and ladies (?) performance.
1-0 half time.
Coach Romanus decided a tactical change by introducing 39 years old Maldini for 'Rumanian phalange Catalino'. Rocky defence absorbed the shock! The tactical choice was to push LXG to score second goal and kill the game. From a corner cross came the second: good control from Endrik Panther and Vic Napoleon netted in with great shot from short distance.
"Vous l'avez vue mon alcool?". Trinquant was knocked out.
Paulus Romanus decided it is time for 'mamma prepares the pasta'; he got the ball from John O'Shea on the flank and penetrated inside the Trinquant box: only a panzer-tackle could stop his run and the penalty was inevitable: Puskas remembered that a beautiful girlies were watching him and decided to shot perfectly the penalty in the right end side of the goally! 3-0 and...Ciao ciao.
Marco Lazio came in for President Mc Mullan who decided to direct the reds from a 'buvette spot' and Jimmy the daddy man replaced a happy and exhausted Vivien la belle vie!
Still adrenaline time for the reds when new Trinquant substitute number 9 came inside LXG box and forced old 52 years Maldini to play a tackle-ball in our penalty area: Spider decided that no way his web was going to be scratched by this ass hole and got the penalty! Simply fantastic save!!
An amazed John Eoin O'Shea, incredulous from what he could see, decided to speak in an undecipherable Irish Gaelic mixture with Finnish word: 'uhm;...gut...min bulls go...fuc...bul". Marco Roma looked an astonished Paulus and said 'Did he mean that he got his balls kicked?". Romanus looked at Mc Scouser King of Ballets who looked dismayed and did not know what to say.
Well, nobody understands the little Irish man anyway!
In the end only Pineda Copacabana and Puskas last barrier were required to make contributions as stopping the last chances before the referee decide it was time for end and celebrations.
Legionnaires saluted applauding ladies and little Turkish kid on the far side line and decided to share in the showers last compliments. Another victory, another unbeaten week in 2007.
And, the Reds go marching on, on, on!!
