Bios:
Coach Charles DuPont is coaching the Sel Appa National Team for the sixth straight attempt for the World Cup. He brought the Turtles into the international football world and delivered them to not only the 33rd World Cup Finals, but into the Round of 16. Always optimistic, DuPont strongly believes Sel Appa will soon rank among the top 10 in the world.

GK Vasily Kashchenko is renowned throughout Sel Appa for his abilities in the net. He expects his mastery in the net to show during these qualifiers. He expects to keep the number of goals conceded in this tournament as quite low.

DF Kash Vasou is a rookie and little is known about him in major games. He was recruited because of his remarkable back-pitch abilities and ability to coordinate well with the goalkeeper. He was often said to be a second goalkeeper.

DF Bernard Apple is known for his coming "out of nowhere" and sending the ball far down the pitch with just a kick.

DF Jimmy Peech is known in Sel Appa as "The Wall" for his large size that allows him to block balls. He is a very important part of every defensive wall.

MF Jacques Latortue is well-known in Sel Appa for enabling swift connections between defense and strikers. It was once said that "the ball was heading back upfield before he even got it".

MF Colin Patette is a master midfielder and probably Sel Appa's best. He can work in almost any situation and ensures that the ball is always in front of him. He acted as captain during Estevez's suspension during WC32 and delivered a 7-2 victory over Algal States. Many see him as a possible replacement for Estevez, should he retire.
Foreign Club: CR Submiria

MF Arthur Mercator IV has a long football lineage going back to his great-grandfather Arthurt "Art" Mercator I. All have been excellent well-known players who have amazed many. Arthur's son, Arthur Mercator V, is also considering a professional football career.

MF Arthur Mercator V is the son of midfielder Arthur Mercator IV and the fifth in a line of Sel Appan football legends. The Mercator Dynasty continues with this new addition, who is replacing Pho Nguyen, who retired. He is expected to team up with his father.

FW Alan Dubrov is one of Sel Appa's youngest players and is expected to be around for some time. He is considered one of Sel Appa's best footballers and is expected to put on a good show.
Foreign Club: Dunboor FC of Cafendeu.

FW George Bedding is generally used as a substitute, but may see action this Cup.

FW Miquelinho is the youngest player on the team. He is said to be very good at most shots and can score from almost any situation, like Estevez. Many call him "lil Estevez" due to his similar abililties.

FW Estevez is widely regarded as Sel Appa's best footballer and has made over 300 goals in his career. He is well-known for being able to make virtually every shot, from corner kicks to free kicks to penalty kicks. He plans to show off much of his skills and is fairly certain Sel Appa will make the Knouckout Rounds. He is the team's captain and does this job well.

FW Alex Nart is Estevez's attacking partner and the two are often seen charging down the pitch gracefully and often scoring a goal. Many regard him as a co- or vice-captain to Estevez.

Coach: Caine Hawdon and Peter Hobble

Kit: JMC Kit to be revealed

Style: +1

#10, Ricky Yunn F ©

The Stalwart of the team, despite being captain and a forward is very aware of what is happening all over the field and has a strong knolwedge of his other teammates and what they can do. Ricky and Thomas are brothers, though there is a strong rivalry between the two, The reason both of them have made it onto the squad. Though off field they are the closest of brothers.

#53, Frederick Hampstead F

A talented forward, having breathed soccer since he was young, has not scored too many goals himslef but is always in the right place in the right time to make sure that any forward attacking move by the team has the best chance of success. Though he is still looking for and is hungry for his first international goal.

#24, Everrett Kang F

The last of the starting forwards, His incredible accuracy is his main weapon it is the subject of much heated debate which forward is best, generally each excels in a critical area and a combined and sustained attack by all of them would test even the strongest of defense. However, they are quite well balanced by the defense and midfield.

#9, Thomas Yunn, M

Not to be over shadowed by his slightly older brother Thomas has excellent control of the ball and can place it very accurately over long distances, this has even resulted in a few goals for Thomas, who is the left winger.

#32, Quentin Assington M

The centre and master tactition, him and the captain Ricky Yunn control the game, or attempt to anyway. His timing is perfect and has been known to get rid of the ball just before a legal tackle and draw a foul. However Quentin is also a bit of diver though never does it once he gets a yellow.

#27, David Myfanwy M

The only welsh speaking player in Bazalonia David has made a name for himself for his passion for the game. However he can get a bit uptight and can confront referees for even the hint of a bad decision. However as the right winger he just seems to be in the right place at the right time.

#28, Arianna Georsophalous D

One of the 2 women defenders in the team Arianna get's annoyed at the concept of a purely female world cup. If there was a male only world cup then they be different but the world cup is for the best soccer players in the nation. And she has earned her right to be here and will not let anyone else get in the way of her playing her defensive game.

#37, Henry Fjord D

You can never really be sure what this guy will do in any particular occasion usually causing confusion, even then you can't be sure whether he'll take the ball himself, pass it on to another player or just get in the other players way.

#20, Zieta Swift D

The second of the woman in the team, more sedate than her fellow female defender, Zieta does her job and does it well.

#31, Xia Chia D

Oriental appearance, he seemingly works well together with the females in the team managing to set up complex 3-part defensive maneuvers. Xia was once in the Bazalonian military and always had a flare for defense. both on the field but also on the soccer pitch which he was in the Bazalonian Army Soccer team that beat navy in the Armed forces games.

#1, Joshua Kanga K

Younger Brother of Paul Kanga, a previous substitute goal keeper for the Bazalopes Joshua had proven himself during the AOCAF tournaments as a great goalkeeper.

THE MONOPOLISTS COME TO PLAY THE WORLD CUP IN THEIR HOME COUNTRY!

(OOC: Cafundéu’s players are two years older than in WC 35)

Style: +3

CAFUNDÉU RELEASES THE OFFICIAL LIST OF PLAYERS FOR THE 36th WORLD CUP

(Lasft, Cafundéu) – After the worst campaign in the country’s history, when the country didn’t qualify for the World Cup (although it won the Cup of Harmony), the CCFM (Confederação Cafundelense de Futebol Masculino – in English, Cafundéu’s Male Football Confederation) decided to change many things in the National Team. Now, with a new president (Miguel Jóia) and a new coach (the unnexperienced but talented Júlio Vargas), the team is ready to play well in the World Cup.

The team has 10 new players, maybe because of the coach change. As Cafundéu is one of the hosts of this World Cup, the team won’t have to play the qualifiers, but this team can be tested in friendlies. But the main team will only be used for friendlies inside Cafundéu. For friendlies in other countries, the B team, used in the Oxen Cup, will be the one that will play.

See the list of the 23 players:

Goalkeepers:

1-Luís Octávio Andrade JÚNIOR (Team: A.F.F.)
Height: 205cm - Weight: 88kg – Age: 25 years old
The “slim barrier”, continues in the National Team as a starter, even after the team didn’t qualify for WC 35. He A.F.F.’s keeper for many years, and is known as a calm and concentrated goalkeeper, who can save penalties and is in the right place in the right moment. His reflexes are also excellent. As Júlio Vargas was a keeper too, he can learn a lot with the new coach.

12-LAURO Navarro Vasconcelos (Team: Pernetas EC)
Height: 186cm - Weight: 72kg – Age: 24 years old
One of the most promising goalkeepers of the last five years, Lauro left Penders and joined Pernetas EC, where he sent the starter keeper, Sedoso, to the bench. With excellent games, helping the team to win important games, he won a place in the National Team. He is a young and eccentric goalkeeper, who likes to take free kicks too. He is also very intelligent.

PLAYED WC 35

22-Lucas DUTRA (Team: São José)
Height: 202cm - Weight: 80kg – Age: 26 years old
A serious goalkeeper, who doesn’t like to talk with the press and wants to stay focused on the game. He is playing well at the moment, and deserved to go to the National Team. His team is one of the less popular of the First Division, but he is very linked to the team and doesn’t want to leave now. As he is the third keeper, he’ll have few chances in the National Team, but can be used more in friendlies.
Rating: C - Team Relationship: B - Morale: B - Form: A

Right Defenders:

2-Leonardo Macedo de Mattos "LÉO MATTOS" (Team: A.F.F.)
Height: 168cm – Weight: 72kg – Age: 22 years old
A fast, intelligent and offensive full-back, who can play in both sides of the field, although he prefers the right side. He lacks some defensive abilities, so he suits better in an offensive strategy, as he has speed and good passing and shooting abilities. He is very young, but has some experience now. He has developed a lot, and now is surely the best full-back of the whole National Team.

16-Vinícius Nogueira COELHO (Team: Petardos S/A)
Height: 173cm – Weight: 77kg – Age: 26 years old
A player who showed some talent for many years in Pernetas EC, but just now got a chance to go to the National Team, something that happened just after he was bought by the billionaire Petardos S/A. He is an extremely fast right-back, with average passing, but good positioning. He also likes to attack and take corner kicks, and he can be a good weapon for Cafundéu. But his recent form is not so good.
Rating: B – Team Relationship: B – Morale: A – Form: C
PLAYED WC 35

Left Defenders:

6-Antônio Machado Veiga "TONINHO" (Team: Central United)
Height: 185cm – Weight: 86kg – Age: 23 years old
Toninho played for all the National Teams for youngsters in Cafundéu, and now reaches the main team. An intelligent player, who can predict the future of the play and what his opponents will do, he is very good at set pieces and very tactician. He has a good passing ability, and defends well, but doesn’t score much goals. He is very resistant too, it’s difficult for him to get injured.
Rating: B – Team Relationship: B – Morale: B – Form: A

13-Rafael Borges ALESSANDRINI (Team: Dunboor FC)
Height: 176cm - Weight: 74kg – Age: 32 years old
Alessandrini is a player who only got a chance in the National Team when old. He is a good player, the best left-back of the last National League, and can play as a central defender too. His main strengths are his defensive and passing abilities, but he is a bit slow. He has a brother too, younger than him, who plays for Dunboor FC too, but still isn’t a starter.
Rating: C - Team Relationship: A - Morale: C - Form: B

Central Defenders:

3-EDUARDO MONTE Castelo Casagrande (Team: Petardos S/A)
Height: 172cm - Weight: 70kg – Age: 21 years old
Eduardo Monte was just a promising youngster of the Sub-23 team, but he impressed the whole world with his speed and perfect long passes. He defends well, but needs the help of a more experienced defender to be successful. After playing for some time in the National Team, he went to giants Petardos S/A, and improved a lot as a player there, and now is the best defender of the country.

PLAYED WC 35

4-Francisco Menezes Vasconcelos "CHICO SERRA" (Team: Ranca Toco)
Height: 201cm - Weight: 97kg – Age: 27 years old
Francisco played for many teams of lower divisions of Cafundéu, and got a chance to show something in the First Division few years ago. He became a starter in Ranca Toco and showed an excellent football, going to the National Team. He is excellent in tackling and in heading (as he is very tall). He isn’t good in attacking, so he stays in the defence most of the time. He is a bit violent too, and receives many cards. He won his nickname “Serra” after threatening a reporter who invaded his house with a chainsaw. Some team mates don’t like his excessive violence during trainings.
Rating: B - Team Relationship: C - Morale: B - Form: A

14-Guilherme Frota SOUZA (Team: Atlético Jutense)
Height: 173cm – Weight: 72kg – Age: 22 years old
Souza was the team mate of Eduardo Monte in EC Elville, when the team made a surprising campaign in the National League. Now, both went to different teams, and Souza now is in a team known for its excellent defense. He is more fast than the other attackers, but has less physical strength. He can start some counterattacks and can even play as a full-back in the right or left wing if needed. He is not so good as Eduardo, but is a good option in the bench.
Rating: C – Team Relationship: B – Morale: B – Form: A

20-José Augusto Marques DORIVA (Team: Cafundó do Juta)
Height: 182cm - Weight: 85kg – Age: 25 years old
A solid defender, does his job well, but nothing special. Passes well, but doesn’t score goals often. Will be just an option in the bench, as he isn’t as good as any of the other three attackers. He was called up in the last cup qualifiers, and many people criticized the coach because of that, but surprisingly he was called again. This time, he is in a better form, but probably won’t play much.

Defensive Midfielders:

5-Mukulaiê Bakarangobadah Zulaiêká "ANORMAL" (Team: SC Lasft)
Height: 220cm - Weight: 155kg – Age: 27 years old
A monster in the field, Anormal has a strange past. His father is a famous scientist, and his mother is unknown. Many sources say that Anormal is an experience made by his father, but this is only a theory. Anormal is young, but surely the best player of the team. Taller and heavier than any other player of the team, he has more abilities than anyone. Great physical strength, very fast and is good at everything(heading, shooting, passing, tacking). His only weakness is that he doesn't want to hurt his opponent, so he tries to get the ball in a gentle way, being dribbled sometimes. But everybody loves him and he'll surely play all the games.

8-Gabriel Pereira BARBOSA (Team: Petardos S/A)
Height: 178cm - Weight: 77kg – Age: 29 years old
Barbosa was just a reserve player of Dunboor FC until the injury of De Bois. He entered, and didn't leave. He is extremely good at creating plays, and is a good dribbler. His defensives abilities are good too, but he often attacks and doesn’t goes back to the defense to help. Now he is a starter, after he went to Petardos S/A. But this will probably be his last chance in the National Team, as he has been having problems with injuries.

PLAYED WCs 34/35

19-WILSON Carvalho "MAGRÃO" (Team: Dunboor FC)
Height: 178cm - Weight: 67kg – Age: 20 years old
A shy midfielder, who has to be motivated to show his full potential, Wilson Magrão is another good defensive midfielder who appeared in Dunboor FC. He usually doesn’t have spectacular performances, but it is hard to see him making a mistake during the game, so he is a good choice for important games, when there is a lot of pressure, as he is a very calm person. His team mates consider him a friendly person, so he has no relationship problems. He seems weak, but when playing, shows an unbelievable strength.
Rating: C - Team Relationship: A - Morale: A - Form: A

Neutral Midfielders:

7-Thiago Pardal "RATO" (Team: Clube Imperial)
Height: 162cm – Weight: 56kg – Age: 20 years old
Another ex-player of Galáxia, Rato is a fantastic midfielder. Usually playing in a more offensive role, he is an excellent dribbler. His dribbles are incredible, it seems that he can do whatever he wants with the ball. His passes are very good too, and can put the attacker in front of the goal with just the keeper to beat. He has a lot of speed too, and an average defensive ability. His main problem is that he is horrible at heading, so he won’t participate in aerial plays. He is also a very modest person, who doesn’t consider himself a key player of the National Team.
Rating: A – Team Relationship: B – Morale: B – Form: A

21-Felipe Sales Fontoura "CARIOCA" (Team: Ranca Toco)
Height: 180cm – Weight: 82kg – Age: 30 years old
Carioca is probably the best player of the team in terms of ball control. Usually playing in a more defensive role, he is very good at tacking and passing, and very good at set pieces too. His main problem is his finishing ability, so he probably won’t go to attack. When the team is winning a game, he can hold the ball for a lot of time, which can secure the good result for his team. But he drinks a lot outside the field and is involved in many confusions, including a murder (he was declared innocent).
Rating: C – Team Relationship: D – Morale: A – Form: B

Attacking Midfielders:

10-DÁRIO dos Campos Salles (Team: Cafundó do Juta)
Height: 168cm – Weight: 64kg – Age: 25 years old
Dário was one of the “Galáxia SC wonders”, five players of the Fourth Division (now in the Second) team that surprised the country. He went to Atlético Jutense and later to Cafundó do Juta, and is having very good performances, using all his scoring and dribbling ability to help the team, and the National Team. He is also good at passes and set pieces, but isn’t good at defending. He improves every year, and now is a starter in the team.

15-Jorge Lafaiete Benazzi NETO (Team: Central United)
Height: 168cm - Weight: 65kg – Age: 23 years old
Specialist in crossings and free kicks, Neto has a lot to offer for the National Team. He is good at dribbling and finishing, but doesn’t like to get involved in defensive plays. His heading ability is not so good too, and he gets tired quickly. So, he usually stays in the midfield waiting for a pass. In the media, he is known as the statue, because he stays in the same place for most of the time. But when he gets the ball, he surely will make an excellent play, or score a goal from a free kick.
Rating: B - Team Relationship: B - Morale: B - Form: B

18-Leandro Keller ASSIS (Team: Petardos S/A)
Height: 174cm - Weight: 76kg – Age: 28 years old
Another hard working player, that the coaches of Cafundéu usually like, Assis left Atlético Jutense three years ago to join Petardos. With his fighting spirit and his good passes, he became one of the best players of the team. In the country’s team, he is ready to do a good job, and can use his speed and his vision to do it. He is also a friendly person, but doesn’t talk much with his team mates.

Attackers:

9-Ivan Moutinho Gomes "FLECHA" (Team: SC Lasft)
Height: 164cm - Weight: 60kg - Age: 22 years old
The most promising “wonderkid” of Galáxia SC, Flecha has more technique than the other attackers, but lacks physical strength. Main responsible for the rise of Galáxia in the lower leagues, he is now in SC Lasft. Now, four players from Galáxia are already in the NT (Rato, Ferreira, Flecha and Dário). He is really fast (his nickname means arrow in english) and has a good finishing, but isn’t too good in making assistances. Is a player to look in the future.

11-HEITOR Abbade (Team: A.F.F.)
Height: 178cm - Weight: 72kg - Age: 27 years old
Has a very good finishing too. He wasn’t a goalscorer, but in the last years he is scoring many goals for the NT (scored 12 in the last Cup of Harmony). His heading isn't accurate and his dribbling is far from perfect, but his passing is good. He likes to press the opponent defender and try to take the ball from him. He also can create some goal chances. When he is not playing he works in the CCFM judging the referees, and has a good future as a player. He also has a good relationship with the media.

17-TALES Cassiano Assunção Sobrinho (Team: Cafundó do Juta)
Height: 179cm - Weight: 81kg – Age: 25 years old
A player who has developed a lot during the last years, Tales support the other attackers, and can make many assistances. His main objective isn’t to score goals, but sometimes he uses his good finishing ability to do that. He is also very fast and has good passes, but wants to stay away from set pieces. He became a bit arrogant after playing well for the National Team and changing teams, but still has the confidence of most of the players. He likes to talk with the media.

23-Kléber Tenório FERREIRA (Team: Galáxia)
Height: 186cm – Weight: 90kg – Age: 24 years old
A good attacker who plays for a team of the Second Division known for revealing stars that are now playing in Cafundéu’s NT. Ferreira is a typical goal maker. He stays in the area, waiting for a crossing or a good pass and, when he receives the ball with conditions to score a goal, it’s difficult for him to not score. Ferreira is also a natural leader, but won’t be the captain (it’ll be Anormal). He doesn’t talk much with the media, avoiding it, so not much is known about his personal life.

Height: 202cm - Weight: 106kg – Age: 42 years old
Júlio Vargas is already a legend in Cafundéu. Player of the National Team for many years, participated in World Cups 32 and 33 as a goalkeeper. He is also respected in Petardos S/A, as he played there. After retiring from football, Vargas wanted to work as a coach, and earned a place in SC Carnavalesco, and then Clube Imperial. After being promoted to the First Division with Clube Imperial, he was hired to be the coach of the National Team. He is popular with the players and the media, and has an offensive style, but not too tactical.

Assistant Coach: João CANABRAVA (Former Ranca Toco player)
Height: 172cm - Weight: 78kg – Age: 59 years old
Canabrava likes to give freedom to the players and focuses in team relationship. He was in WC 32, and didn’t get a good job after that, so Júlio Vargas gave another chance to him. When he was the coach, the players could go out at night and only return in the other day. To tell the truth, even Canabrava leaves the training ground sometimes.

Pai Dinah(or Pai Oxossi) is the spy of the team. He says that he can discover the most deeper secrets of the opponent talking with the opponent players and using his secret talents. He is a very strange person and many people say that he is crazy. But he does his work well, and most of the times he discover the secrets of the enemy.

Trovão has the confidence of the coach Júlio Vargas, as they have worked together in Clube Imperial too. He has a lot of knowledge about physical training, and uses it to give some advice for the players. He likes to run with the players during morning, and because of that some players become friends of him. His training style is simple, and can be adapted according to the opponent.

Entertainer: SERGINHO MALLANDRO (Former TV Gazeta)
Height: 175cm - Weight: 88kg - Date of Birth: ???(above 40 years old)
The players and the staff need to be relaxed to play all the games. So, Serginho Mallandro's job is to make jokes, play games and help to make everybody happy. Sometimes he can be a bit annoying with his phrases like "Glu-glu", or "Bilu-bilu tetéia" and other ones, and even the directors don't like him very much, but he will stay with the NT. He also works with the female NT.

Doctor: Dr. TATIANA MORAES (Former Faculdade de Medicina)
Height: 175cm - Weight: 62kg – Age: 36 years old
After Cecília left the country to work as a doctor in a famous foreign hospital, the CCFM went after a substitute. Tatiana has been working with football players since she got her degree, so she was a natural option for the job. She does her job well, although some older doctors wanted her place.

The Directors:

Director of the NT: Counselor-Minister of Sports Erasmo Carlos JOWENGUARD
Age: 85 years old - Time in the job: 20 years
Jowenguard's family is one of the founders of the CCFM. He was the president of the CCFM for 30 years, but health problems made him renounce. Now, without problems, he has the job of director of the National Teams(less important), but he still has great influence in the CCFM and in the CFFC, choosing the NT coach and changing some things that he shouldn't change(I won't give any details about it). After the team failed to qualify for the World Cup, he became the Counselor-Minister of Sports, but decided to continue being the Director of NTs (he could be the president of the CCFM again if he wanted).

President of the CCFM: MIGUEL JÓIA
Age: 50 years old - Time in the job: 2 years
After Cafundéu didn't qualify for World Cup 35, the supporters, angry, rejected the presence of the Counselor-Minister of Sports Samuel Makas in the position of President of the CCFM. The Emperor sacked Makas from the government, and from the CCFM. New elections were held, but only Miguel Jóia applied for the job. Jowenguard was offered the job, but he declined. So, the player agent Miguel Jóia became the president of the CCFM.

Note: The Scout continues to work during the WC 36 qualifiers, searching for good players to buy and bring to Cafundéu. In every round, he’ll be in a game, but this game won’t be revealed (you can say that he was seen in your game if you want). But he’ll continue receiving protection from the CCFM, including the special agent, Fred Cardoso, who is recovered after being shot in the investigations of The Scout’s kidnapping during World Cup 34.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background Detail: Cafundéu doesn't have strange costumes and nothing too absurd happens there (it’s main traditions are the ones usually linked with Brazil (carnival, fanatic football fans, many regional parties, local food and music)). But please note that in Cafundéu you'll have to pay for almost everything. You'll have to pay for the water, food, transport, products, to walk in the road, to receive an answer about something, to complain, to sleep, and many other things. Cafundéu is also looking to profit with the World Cup, so any country with good economy is free to invest here or buy some of our products. Drugs are prohibited and the laws are very strict. The prisons are horrible and the prisoners live in bad conditions, but they have the right to watch the games in Carandirú City for free. Cafundéu's press is also very annoying, as they'll make everything to get some news. More detail in my NSWiki (about government, but not updated).

Praça Maior
City: Cafundó do Juta
City Details: capital of the country, is a big metropolis, with many things to do, many clubs, good nightlife and shops, and also many points for tourism. The police are well funded.

Arena América
City: Abadia
City Detials: this city is known for its strange division of neighborhoods. Each neighborhood has a respective leader, which represents it in the city hall. And most leaders represent a family. These families are very powerful in the city and control almost everything. The city is very big, but has some old traditions that are still unchanged. A new stadium (one of many Arena Américas of the county) will be used to hold the games. Many people say that you can see many UFOs in the sky while in Abadia, so the media call Abadia the E.T. city.

Stadium Capacity: 100,000.
Infrastructure: *****
Will Host: two group phase games, one quarterfinal.

Olímpico Imperial
City: Lux

It has good security, education and healthcare, but nothing very interesting to tourists. The stadium is new, built to hold different sports. The Emperor himself likes to visit Lux, so he can see some games in this stadium.
Climate: cold and wet(medium rain probability).
Stadium Capacity: 80,000.
Infrastructure: *****
Will Host: two group phase games.

Obelisco Monumental
City: Lasft
City Details: second biggest city of the country, Lasft is more beautiful than Cafundó do Juta, since it’s on the seaside. People from all around the world come to Lasft every year because of its marvelous beaches. It also is the headquarters of the CCFM. The stadium is the most beautiful of the country, with clean bathrooms and an organized restaurant, and the Empire doubled the number of seats for the World Cup, changing the appearance of the stadium completely.

Estádio Erasmo Carlos Jowenguard
City: Espinal
City Details: tourists come to Espinal because of its big local parties. As the city is located on the seaside, its beaches are much visited too, although the government has some problems with violence. The city is also respected because of its social programs, giving assistance to the poorer citizens, and is the home of the republican leaders. But the country isn’t much important for businesses. The stadium is completely new, but not so good.
Climate: hot and wet(medium rain probability).
Stadium Capacity: 60,000.

Climate: warm and wet(high rain probability).
Stadium Capacity: 70,000.
Infrastructure: ****
Will Host: two group phase games.

Toca do Tatu
City: Central City
City Details: as the name says, this city is located in the centre of the country. It has one of the biggest airports of the country and has a chaotic traffic. As the city is located in an area of mountains, it has many tunnels. Its altitude is very high, so some players can have difficulties in playing in this city, as they can lose breath very fast. Central City is also a place where different cultures meet, so the scenery of the city can change suddenly, but it is a good place to buy a present, as there is a big variety of goods. The stadium has a modern architeture, and was expanded for the World Cup.
Climate: cold and dry(low rain probability).
Stadium Capacity: 114,000.
Infrastructure: *****
Will Host: two group phase games, one second round game.

Presídio
City: Carandirú City
City Details: this city was very interesting in the past, but now it’s only used to hold prisoners. Cafundéu’s main police station is located there, too. It’s the prison city, but is very safe and has many exotic food shops. The stadium is located inside the main prison of the city, and most of the prisoners see the games. Outside the prison, you can see some museums about the police and the prison.
Climate: hot and dry(low rain probability).
Stadium Capacity: 77,500.
Infrastructure: *****
Will Host: two group phase games, one second round game.

It’s jewelry and coal factories are the most important of the country. During the winter, it snows nearly everyday in Dunboor. The supporters there like to bring musical instruments to the stadium. It also has many theaters, and good plays are held there. The stadium is perfectly round and very beautiful. Was expanded, and completely changed.
Climate: extremely cold and dry(low rain probability).
Stadium Capacity: 135,000.
Infrastructure: *****
Will Host: two group phase games, one quarterfinal.

Estádio Pioneiro

Manager

Justinian Constant
Age: 1137
The hardy elf played and manuevered his way into the good graces of ever squad he has ever suited up for. Now with Soler out, the former captain has been giving the reigns thanks to a favorable personality, a good playing career, and the recommondations of the mainstayers on the national team. He has taken the possession style of Soler and attacking style of Florentine and combined them into a solid squad that is worthy of the number four ranking in the world.

Assistant Manager

Dwier Titenburg
Age: 1302
After a great career in both domestic and international play, the ESC decided to approach the elf for the job of assistant manager. After weighing his options, he gladly accepted in helping improve his countries favorite sport. Despite Soler being dismissed, the ESC and EFA both feel the former Marauder has done all his tasks well and has kept him aboard. Now paired with a former teammate at the head of the team, him and Constant are both seen smiling alot more and working tirelessly into the night to improve on the squad's tactics.

Goalie

1 Jacob St. Louis, FC Capri
Age 1210
Sex - M
The younger brother of the now legend of Martin, St. Louis has all of his brothers skills with the better physical attributes. Where his brother was a mere 5 foot 8 inches, Jacob is a full 6 foot 2 inches and doesn't come out to play the risky ball nearly as much as his older sibling. However, they both share the trait for coming up big when the moment could make or break the game.

Defenders

5 Mathias Nickel, Hartdale Hawks
Age - 804
Sex - M
Has been the anchor for the imprentable defence of Hartdale for over a decade now, and has been taken the oppurtunity to show his skills for stifiling strikers on the starting eleven in stride. Given the starting job in the two tournaments ago, Nickel matured and rose to the challange of his new manager. With Metria as a partner, the backline has become a solid rock and allows the midfield to assist the strikers more on the attack.

12 Wori Metria, Hartdale Hawks
Age - 931
Sex - F
The little lady plays a very aggressive style of defence, constantly harrasing her mark from the first whistle until the last. Her main weakness is her aggressiveness that can sometimes tire her out towards the ends of the halves. Apart from the stamina issues, she is as solid as each of her backline partners, and works well with Nickel, having played domestically together for eleven years.

38 D Manuel Lopez, Raynor City Rockers
Age - 1095
Sex - M
Not much to say about this hardened defender apart from that he knows how to win and gets the job done. There is usually that one player on the squad that is the strong silent type and this tournament, this is the man, finally earning his spot on the starting squad after being on the reserves for the last few tournaments.

Midfield

22 Rick Cuellar, S.C. Vagrant Hills (Assegai)
Age: 1065
Sex - M
Rick is the playmaker in the midfield, with the uncanny ability to see plays developing before they happen. This leads to many assists for the maestro in the middle, and also the thanks of his strikers. His ability to facilitate and capitalize on the chances given to him gives him the edge on many attacking midfielders who would love to be in the place, as well as the captainship now that Constant is manager.

34 Jere Jannian, Raynor City Rockers
Age - 1055
Sex - M
One of the best wingers to every set foot on a pitch in the ESF. This lad is masterful at crossing and putting in perfect through ball or lobs. His skill has lead to numerous individual awards in the EPL, including five time winning of Winger of the Year award, as well as leading the league in assist eleven out of his sixteen seasons on the top flight. In addition, he has an easy to get along with personality, that makes him one of the best teammates, the one everyone wants to room with. He was finnaly given his due when Soler came in and proved his place was well deserved, putting in nearly an assist a game.

4 Laborious Hawk, Timorlug Wargs (Turruth Gordur)
Age - 641
Sex -M
The crafty elf is a beast of an attacking midfielder. He stands at 6'5" and is gifted with amazing technique and footwork for even footballers not his size. Add in his highly accurate shot and ability to find seems in the defence, he is the hardest assignment for the oppisition of the Marauders and can easily create chances out of thin air.

15 Cristi Kries, AC Lea Monde (Assegai)
Age - 761
Sex - F
The younger sister of former national teamer Liliam Kries and the twin of current Marauder, Nelson, this lady has all the tools to make a great midfielder. With her amazing speed, she also shows great ball control and excelent vision for finding others. Lacking in strength, she makes up for this flaw for being to play anywhere in the middle of the park, be it a holder, facilitator, or winger, she is up for the job and usually money.

16 Javier Jaques, CA Ville-Royale (Oliverry)
Age - 769
Sex - M
After a dissapointing start in the Premiership, the EFA casually let the midfielder go on a free trasnfer to the Oliverry squad. This move seemed to change his career as he went from a weed amogst roses to the whole boquet. Given his suberb first touch and toughness in the middle, Constant lets the once fallen star shine brightly along the impressive tower of strength of Hawk, allowing his partner to venture into the final third which is more to his liking.

Strikers

21 AF Nikali Rikard, Hartdale Hawks
Age - 1041
Sex - M
Has been on the national team since their first entrance in World Cup 29, but has not cracked the starting line up due to the bigger names and talents. Not becoming discouraged, he has used the time he has been given on the pitch and playing behind the greats to develop his game. Unlike Kiso, who can score a multitude styles of goals, Rikard is best on the volley and break aways. Though his skill his great, this lack of good ariel game can cost the team if they are needing goals late in competition.

9 Kiso Night, Rinaldi Gunners
Age 28
Sex - M
Son of legendary captain Zacharius, and the scoring mistress of Kyla Night, the prodigal son proved why the future of the ESF is very bright. He has the scoring prowess, the foot speed, control over the ball, balance, and intelegance for the game that makes him a dreaded assignment. His only flaw is trying to outshine his parents reputation, which leads to him taking a few too many shots when a pass to another player would of been the better play.

Sojourner FC

Pettinger had a solid year for the Berkesian League's best defensive unit at Sojourner FC, only conceeding 2.17 goals per game. Pettinger is a scrapper who isnt afraid to pounce on a ball in traffic.

LWB 22
Darrion Scott

RB 2
Tadeusz von Paulus
17
Rechberg
(R)

Coach Rundstedt and Berckesian supporters have plenty to look forward to in this 17 year old talent. von Paulus signed a professional contract at only 15 and has lived up to the hype, becoming the second 17 year old on the team.

RWB 8
Al(fred) Sikorsky

Xatal Xa
(L)

Al Sikorsky first kicked a football when he was 20. Three years later he was playing for the Berckesian league championship in Lexington. Sikorsky is a physical defender and a great slide tackler. Sikorsky managed 12 yellow cards and 2 reds this past season.

CM 20
David Burns

David is a very defensively minded player who only managed one goal last season but had 24 assists. Burns is a hard worker and one of the strongest players on the squad.

CM 88
Per Hitzplerger
18
Lexington United
(R)

Part of an excellent crop of U-20 Lexington United talent, Hitzplerger loves to run the wing and uses his 6 foot 3 inch height to his advantage in corners and forms an excellent wall with Burns and von Paulus on free kicks.

CAM 5
Will Belue
17
Lexington United
(R)

Another young Lexington United, Belue has excellent speed and power but does lack finesse. Belue is never afraid to go to ground after a ball or rival opponent, and his play earned him a league tying 3 red cards last season.

ST 11
Tadeusz Anielewicz
27
Oldtown

Anielewicz is a ball of energy up and down the field. He lacks some control at times but when he plays under control is a threat from a long ways out. Anielewicz scores in bunches and is a streaky player/

ST 23
Drew Harris
17
Revena (Quakmybush)

3-2-3-2 formation. (-1) modifier

Coach- Jay Masterson- age 58. Tynelia’s all time leading WC scorer with 36 goals in group play and one more in the cup itself, returns for a fourth go around as the WC coach. Despite making the Cup proper each of his first three years at the helm the team has stalled out at that point with 3, 3 and only 1 point last time as a final day loss to Qazox cost the team its first ever trip to the knockouts. Some think Tynelia’s greatest soccer player is making his final run as coach but Masterson refuses to comment. After having scoring troubles last Cup, Masterson has ended a Tynelian tradition from their first cup by adding a somewhat more attacking mentality to the team than in years past. Traditionalists have been taken aback but such an aggressive mindset.

Formation
…………T.Conroy……………………. Dalton
D.MacDougal.……………….Masterson Jr……………Burke
………………Hirst………………………Linderton
Baxinworth…………..M.MacDougal…………………Struss………
……………………..Martin…………………………….

G- Mandy Martin (28- starter) Now a confident veteran, Martin is clearly the main keeper for this cup as veteran Sean MacDougal makes his final go around this Cup. She has said she plans to play in two more Cups after this meaning Tynelia’s keeper duties will be in good hands for some time to come.

G- Sean MacDougal (34-reserve) Now in his fourth and final Cup, MacDougal is content to make a few spot starts to spell Martin knowing his days of being an everyday keeper here are at an end. In fact many feel he should not even be here after a subpar regular season. Others point to the inclusion of a third keeper on the team for the first time ever as a sign of Masterson’s lack of confidence in MacDougal.

G/M- Rachel Ellis (18- reserve) Ellis is seen as an up and coming keeper for the future but was considered a surprise addition to the team given Coach Masterson’s reluctance at carrying three keepers in the past. However she may very well be the best pure athlete on the team and during league play she has actually seen some action in the midfield on days she was not in net. While having good instincts as a keeper her work at midfield is still a work in progress.


F- Duncan MacDougal (36-starter) Tynelia’s 5th all time scorer, tied with Tina Conroy who is expected to move past Duncan this year, is back for his final Cup after his brother Connor decided to retire last season. Though he is listed as a forward in the lineup it is clear that if needed he can and will be bumped up as a third striker if the situation calls for it.

F- Marcus Dalton (20-starter) The new kid on the block, rookie of the year two years ago and already being called the ‘Sniper’ for his accurate shooting on net and the power behind them. Dalton make the big move into the starting lineup contrary to those who felt he hadn’t earned a spot yet because of inexperience.

F- Tina Conroy (31- starter)- Tynelia’s all time leading scorer among women is back again as the team’s main scoring option for the second straight cup. In fact she hopes to move into the top three all time this cup which isn;t out of the realm of possibility for Tynelia's favorite female athlete.

F- Jay Masterson Jr. (28- starter) Coach Masterson oldest son returns for his third Cup. However unlike his father he has developed into perhaps the best playmaker in the league. Not much of a threat to score, he has however become the second highest penalty kick scorer in Tynelian history trailing only his father.

F- Lyle Burke (23-starter) The youngest forward on the starting lineup earned his stripes after some good work as a reserve last cup and the retirements of Lance Cadeon and Jennifer Elba. Considered to be part of Tynelia’s next generation, Burke is looking to make a good showing to improve on his league leading +16 goal differential this season. A great passer and ballhandler and a rival to Jay masterson’s Jr.’s supporters over best playmaker in the league

F/M- Jeff James (24-reserve) A midfielder on last Cup’s team, he finally made the tradition to forward three years ago based on his attacking mentality. The fastest member of the team, he is expected to see regular playing time to spell the older Duncan MacDougal to keep the veteran fresh.

F- William MacDougal (19-reserve) The MacDougal clan rearms itself as cousin William steps in to take cousin Connor’s spot to fulfill Coach Masterson’s MacDougal quota or so it seems. Still a bit unpolished as a ball handler, he still has the MacDougal attacking mentality. This is a complete switch from last Cup when Coach Masterson went with ball controlling, passing reserves instead putting two attackers in this time around.


M- Samuel Linderton (32- starter) “Slidin’ Sammy”is back again for his second cup. Known as a mudder for his willingness to slide and sacrifice his body to break up a play, Linderton led the league in steals by a wide margin and is the only Tynelian ever to win defensive player of the year from the midfielder’s spot five years ago.

M- Tara Hirst (25-starter) A stay at home midfielder she has above average passing skills and is the swiftest person on the team with the exceptions of James. Getting the start over last Cup’s starter Patiman due to a bit more of an offensive mindset if need be.

M- Brad Patiman (30- reserve) Another defensive minded midfielder, Patiman was a surprising reserve this time around after starting last Cup. Some think his all defensive style didn’t mesh anymore with Coach Masterson’s new strategy this time around but is too good to leave off completely. He will still see regular action to try and hold leads late in games.

M- Angela Davies (18-reserve) the soft spoken rookie was second in the rookie of the year voting this season after a good season where she showed her range with a few goals, good passing and impressive maturity for one so young. Not the fastest player on the team, she makes up for it with good anticipation. Masterson thinks she could become another Adrian Pytte given time and a bit more confidence.




D- Meggie MacDougal (25- starter) The next in line of the seemingly infinite number of MacDougals in Tynelian sports, Meggie is actually the daughter of Alan MacDougal and thus the cousin of the three brothers. Now the heir to the Stossels defensive crown, Meggie was defensive player of the year two years running making it four times in all now in her still young career. At 5’0” she’s the runt of the team and was declared the team mascot by her older cousins. The bubbly redhead is also the team practical joker and has been unofficially adopted by her fans as Tynelia’s official “little sister”.

D- Greg Baxinworth (29-starter) Now in his second Cup Baxinworth had a solid season last year finishing in the top five in goal differential. His levelheaded style of play should help anchor the defense on his end allowing MacDougal to help out on the right if need be, given a newcomer at that spot.

D- Jurgun Struss (26- starter) Struss moved to Tynelia three years ago and gained his citizenship a year and a half ago to become eligible for this cup. The tallest player on the team at 6’5” he is an imposing presence on the field and possesses quick feet despite his size.

D- Gary Greene (32-reserve) Greene is back again but once more failed to break into the starting lineup with the arrival of Struss. Now firmly a defender Greene is expected to see more playing time since he doesn’t have to be kept in reserve in case of keeper problems.

D- Kyle Landerman (30-reserve) This long time veteran of 11 years achieved one of his main goals of his career by finally qualifying for this year’s team as the final reserve. Always a solid player he had a career year this year with a goal differential of +11 as well as three penalty kick goals, an effort rewarded by Coach Masterson. While it is uncertain how much playing time he will get, just making the team is enough right now for the veteran.

Penalty kickers- 1) Conroy, 2) D. MacDougal, 3) Dalton, 4) Masterson Jr, 5) Landerman

Retirements- Connor MacDougal, Lance Cadeon, Jennifer Elba, Jacob Marshall

Stadiums-
Presidential Coliseum- seats 60,000 in the capital of Tyr, an older but constantly renovated arena, it is the largest soccer stadium in the country. All the biggest matches in Tynelian soccer history have been played here. Tyr is the largest city in the country and boasts two professional soccer teams, two baseball teams and a football team. Some call Tyr the sports capital of the country. Just don’t get in the middle of an argument between Tyr Hippo and Tyr Ferret soccer fans. Don’t expect much in the way of religious services, as befits the mostly atheist country, no churches or temples can be found in the city limits, though some may be found in the suburbs.

Sun Stadia- seats 45,000 in the coastal city of Varrik, Tynelia’s tourist hub known for its beaches and crystal clear waters and the local touch of the myriad of small family shops and restaurants that dot the beachfront. For those looking to burn some money the Varrik casino is always looking for more income…er people to enjoy its ambiance. It too has its own baseball, soccer and football teams but you’ll find no heated rivalries here as most folk are too busy working on their tans to fight about sports.

Ice Bowl- seats 25,000 in the northern city of Damak in the foothills of the Tynelian Peaks, the highest mountains in the country. However unlike the other two venues you won’t hear people fighting over soccer. No, Damak is in fact the Tynelian curling capital home of at least 30 leagues and home of the Tynelian Winter Olympic committee. Skiing both downhill and cross country are popular here as well as speed skating. Bring a sweater as its cool even in the summertime here. The football Tyr Penquins are the lone professional team to be found in this city as efforts to increase soccer’s popularity here are moving at a shall we say…glacial pace.

Is a master motivator and a master of tactical defensive midfield, he will share his knowledge with his former teammates. He has experience as a head coach leading the Az-cz side in AOCAF19 and as an assistant on the senior squad.

Bub-Rub: Bub-Rub was another player who took part in the Baptism of Fire champion squad and was on the side that made the first Az-cz trip to the world cup proper. He is in his third cup as coach of the strikers and attacking midfielders for this squad and second working under Zax-Im.

Hubertino: Is back to being partnered with Zax-Im. While they used to be the leaders of the team in defensive midfield now they are both coaches for the national squad, with Hubertino becoming an assistant immediately after he retired last cup. Like Zax-Im was before he's charged a lot with the development of young players.

Players:

The team returns a nearly identical squad to the team seen in world cup 35, with just one change, at backup goalkeeper. But big changes are in store after this cup, as three of the most important Az-czzers ever are calling it quits.

Forwards:

#9 - EE-Or

Height: 5'6"
Weight: 153 lbs
Age: 28
Club Team: Red Dwarf Rangers

With Stanleyinho having retired Ee-Or is now on top of the pile of Az-czid strikers. With some impressive goals in the AOCAF and a continuing developing form he has surpassed his mate at his club. Has a great finishing touch and should add a lot of energy to the side. However he has lost some confidence and failed to earn a starting spot with Zax-Im attempting an experimental formation.

#19 - Fe-Do

Height: 5'5"
Weight: 139 lbs
Age: 24
Club Team: Vertigo Slimes

Fe-Do was EE-Or's attack partner on the most recent AOCAF side. He looks to slide into his club teammate Bub-Rub's old spot as an absolute speedster with pinpoint finishing skills. A fine showing in his second AOCAF should propel him further into the attack for this cup. With the retirement of both Stanleyinho and Uz-Gz ahead of him Fe-Do is now the second most experienced striker despite his young age. If EE-Or has struggles he could become the top striker on the squad.

#15 - El-Iot

Height: 5'2"
Weight: 127 lbs
Age: 19
Club Team: Winterkill Ghosts

El-Iot made his mark with a good performance off the subs bench in AOCAF19 and passed a number of older players for the third striker spot on the Az-cz team. He is still quite young and small but he has excellent speed and great touch. Big things are envisioned for his future.

Midfield:

#10 - Pizelkaxrovsky

Height: 5'9"
Weight: 170 lbs
Age: 35
Club Team: Burlock Jesters

Upon meeting Pizelkaxrovsky many people assume that he is not an ethnic Az-czzer. Many things about him are unorthodox, to be sure, but he is an Az-czzer through and through. Coming from a family that eschewed social conventions he has an interesting perspective on things. His name, far from Az-czid standards and without the almost entirely prevalent hyphen, is just one way in which he shows this oddness. He is also the most free wheeling and joking member of the Az-cz squad. He is the perfect face of a team called the Jesters. Usually this is an advantage but of the Az-Cz players he is the one most likely to do something outrageous in a game and get sent off. He has been ejected from games for things such as delay of games after excessive celebrations or sexual harassment of a Yang Knights fan in the middle of a game the Jesters were losing in the Shangri-la Cup. As for his play on the pitch Pizelkaxrovsky is a master creator. His vision is supreme in the -League and he led the league in assists despite playing with two rather average strikers on the Jesters. More so than even Bub-Rub he has honed his extra senses and never seems to make a wrong decision. He is also the freekick taker for the team and has a dazzling ability to place the ball where it needs to go. He was the Golden Ball winner for best player in the Baptism of Fire and advanced to the finals of the Legend Free Kick competition during WCxXx. He is far and away the most talented Az-czzer and rivals the abilities of any player anywhere. In general, as he goes, so goes the team. He has declared this will be his last cup and is looking to go out in absolute style.

#7 - Kn-Dg

Height: 5'4"
Weight: 140 lbs
Age: 29
Club Team: Yak Clerics

Kn-dg is the only player on the team or in -League who challenge Pizelkaxrovsky for total skill. He mostly plays on the wing using his speed to flash down the side to set up plays for the other players. He is the main corner taker for the team and is also the best goal scorer on the team from his spot in attacking midfield. He showed his amazing ability by finding an incredible nine goals in his five games last finals.

#16 - James Levesque

Height: 6'3"
Weight: 210 lbs
Age: 28
Club Team: Yak Clerics

Kn-Dg's strike partner and the son of former coach Roger Levesque, James Levesque is a brilliant attacking player. He also has good size which can cause considerable problems for the players around. That attacking pair is setting the -League on fire and look to do the same in the world cup. Amazingly this is the fourth world cup together and Az-cz fans expect Levesque and Kn-Dg to light up the goals in a major way.

#13 - Jorge Shockey

Height: 6'1"
Weight: 190 lbs
Age: 23
Club Team: Yang Knights

Jorge Shockey is now charged with guiding the team from the critical defensive midfield position. Shockey provides a more physical package and a sharp mind as well as developing skills. He will be asked to provide leadership and skill to go along with his youth and energy now that Hubertino and Lo-Ro have retired. He also provides Az-cz with a lot of size from their midfield, something not that common for them. Thankfully with both Zax-Im and Hubertino on the coaching staff he'll have great coaching. His move to the Yang Knights, the team of both of his coaches proves that he has become the top defensive midfielder in the land. He displayed a great touch from defensive midfield and many feel he is next in line for captainship of the squad.

#11 - Ip-Gp

Height: 5'3"
Weight: 120 lbs
Age: 29
Club Team: Darzog Mages

Ip-Gp is once again pairing with Pizelkaxrovsky in central midfield and will really help deversify the attack. They teamed together beautifully last cup and look to discover the magic again. He is also the best penalty taker on the team. With five cups of experience he is truly coming into his own as one of the stars of this team.

#12 - Ho-Lee Chung

Height: 5'10"
Weight: 165 lbs
Age: 27
Club Team: Golem Golems

Ho-Lee Chung has established himself as a key part of the attack froce for the squad. Like Shockey he benefitted from the larger midfield as one defender spot was transferred to the midfield. While he can cause plenty of havoc for an opposing defense his defense is still not great, though it has improved greatly since last cup. He can even play more forward as a striker if necessary.

#8 - Hmr-Pn

Height: 5'6"
Weight: 145 lbs
Age: 27
Club Team: Yak Clerics

Hmr-Pn has regained his starting position with the expanded seven man midfield. He will be positioned in a sort of attacking defensive midfielder position and his versatility will be greatly utilized. He will be expected to play a big role this cup and fill many different needs for the team. He is the player who has the most to prove from this cup with so much being asked of him in Zax-Im's unorthodox formation.

#18 - Hu-35

Height: 5'1"
Weight: 130 lbs
Age: 25
Club Team: Vertigo Slimes

Hu-35 is back for his fifth cup. He's turned into an attacking midfielder but is still more than capable of representing any position in the midfield. His versatility also means that he will see plenty of play as a replacement for possibly any of the seven midfielders.

#14 - Anthony Byrd

Height: 6'0"
Weight: 245 lbs
Age: 22
Club Team: Pagoda Ninjas

Byrd is a bruising punishing midfielder. He really likes to get involved and dirty deep in the box and is totally unbothered by physical play. He lacks the technical experise that most Az-czzers have but his insatiable motor and physical size help him compensate for those lacks.

#17 - Bn-Ct

Height: 5'4"
Weight: 144 lbs
Age: 17
Club Team: Vertigo Slimes

Bn-Ct is the son of former Az-cz national team player Bn-Dg. Like his father Bn-Ct is an attacking midfielder. His father was a good player but Bn-Ct looks to be an even greater player. He is one of the least experienced players on the squad, getting only a little action in his first cup, world cup 35. However he has been around the international game since the age of five, when the Gnomes went to the Baptism of Fire, so he is comfortable with the big names and knows many of the players on the squad. He is definitely looking to learn even more this cup. Since last cup he's moved to a bigger role playing with the Vertigo Slimes.

#20 - Ab-Sol

Height: 5'6"
Weight: 166 lbs
Age: 24
Club Team: Red Dwarf Rangers

Although he was originally a pure defender he has since developed into a defensive midfielder and is a very strong defensive presence in the midfield, although not the all around player that Jorge Shockey is. In terms of raw ability he might be the least talented player on the team, but he is a great worker and has an indominable spirit. If he needs to play he'll do a good job and what he adds to the practice pitch and locker room is also quite valuable.

Defenders:

#3 - Mario Nerazzurri

Height: 6'8"
Weight: 225 lbs
Age: 35
Club Team: Red Dwarf Rangers

Nerazzuri is now alone amongst the old guard of Az-cz defenders and one of the few remaining players period from the Bapitsm of Fire champs. He will be vital to the teams chances of success as both the key defender and captain of the squad. He has truly become a great captain and will be looking to go out strong as he has just a couple of cups left in him. Arial attacks are basically doomed to failure against him and he has a good ability to sniff out other attacks as well. With his increased experience he is an absolute star in defense. He will hold down the central position in the three man defense, having progressed from a wingback in his early days to the true king of the defenders. Like Pizelkaxrovsky he has announced that this will be his final cup.

#2 - Haji-Me

Height: 6'0"
Weight: 195 lbs
Age: 27
Club Team: Red Dwarf Rangers

Haji-Me is huge as Gnome players go. He also has a huge role as he is now in his third cup as a defensive starter and must help Nerazzuri turn away the goals. Although he likes to get into the attack he has truly improved his abilities as a pure defender. He will be the main defender to sneak forward in Zax-Im's 90 minutes of chaos philosophy.

#4 - Ca-Fu

Height: 5'8
Weight: 160 lbs
Age: 22
Club Team: Golem Golems

Ca-Fu has flown up the ladder from suprise selection to substitute to starter. He is looking as if he might go down as the greatest Az-cz defender ever if he can continue his current ascension. His defensive instincts are incredible and he uses his physical abilities well even though he isn't the biggest defender going. He also has a great instinct for starting counter attacks and makes great passes.

#5 - Kz-Kz

Height: 5'5"
Weight: 144 lbs
Age: 32
Club Team: Burlock Jesters

Kz-Kz has come along way from his first selection to the Az-cz side for the Baptism of Fire. Back then he was just a hot headed kid who relied on his physical skills to make plays. Although he still uses his physicality he has really improved mentally and now has both technique and perception to go with it. He no longer gives up ticky tack fouls and will help control the line. Although he has been passed by Ca-Fu for the third starting spot he is still the top defender substitute. He's had some injury troubles and his body is slowing down, so he also has announced that this will be his final cup.

#6 - Du-Tre

Height: 5'7
Weight: 160 lbs
Age: 28
Club Team: Yak Clerics

Du-Tre was part of the youth movement at Yak Clerics who look to become the dominant team in the -League. Du-Tre is a blazing fast defender who makes plays that can spring the attack quite well. He tends to gamble to make things happen but can be provide a huge spark from the back line when he makes good plays. Although defensive subs see less action than offensive ones, he still ought to have a decent role for this squad.

#21 - La-Yu

Height: 5'3
Weight: 130 lbs
Age: 26
Club Team: Cloud Harpies

La-Yu is an up and coming defender. He hasn't developed as much as was hoped, but he is still a strong defender who won't ruin the Az-cz side if he is forced into action. He won't see much action but he will definitely make the attacking players work hard during practices.

Goalies:

#1 - Gn-Lg

Height: 5'11"
Weight: 160 lbs
Age: 36
Club Team: Yang Knights

Gn-Lg is the tallest ethnic Az-czzer on the team. Using his height and his keen senses Gn-Lg has already risen to the top of the league. Since taking over as the number one goalkeeper for the Yang Knights he has pushed them back to the top of the league. He is incredibly unflappable and has a good sense on penalties. His PK save against Green Wombat that all but assured the Gnomes their first trip to a world cup finals. He gives his entire team a sense of comfort that even if they make up theres still a good chance they'll be able to withstand the attack. Absolutely unflappable almost every team in the world hopes for a goalkeeper like Gn-Lg. Like both of the other true old pegs from the early days he's calling this his final go around.

#22 - Bu-Lv

Height: 5'2"
Weight: 130 lbs
Club Team: Yak Clerics
Age: 34

Bu-Lv is the former understudy for Gn-Lg at Yang Knights. He is a solid young keeper who looks to improve greatly now that he has his own team to lead, and an improving one at that, in Yak Clerics. Now that Fr-Tld has retired he is the second goal keeper on the squad.

#23 - Haz-Tp

Height: 4'11"
Weight: 115 lbs
Club Team: Red Dwarf Rangers
Age: 15

While there is some hope that Haz-Tp will get bigger, most expect him to stay quite small. However his incredible athleticism makes up for it. He has the athletic ability to play any other sport or any other position on the pitch, but somehow someone convinced him that his 60" vertical leap and incredible reflexes would be well suited in goal. And how right they are. Many players think they have goals that he plucks out of the air. With more seasoning he will become a great goalie. Already pushing Bu-Lv for the second spot behind Gn-Lg.

Formations:

The Gnomes are sticking with their standard formation of 3-7-0. The idea behind the team is 90 minutes of chaos. They intend to use their speed and stamina to wear other teams down and then pick them apart. With the excpetion of Nerazzurri all the team will be involved in getting into the attack and the team is in constant motion. The starters are Kn-Dg and Levesque playing very attacking midfielders on the wing with Ho-Lee Chung between them, Pizelkaxrovsky and Ip-Gp in somewhat attacking positions of control in the middle. Jorge Shockey is positioned in defensive midfield and Hmr-Pn is sort of a roving midfielder who could end up basically anywhere on the pitch. Ca-Fu and Haji-Me are the wing backs who often drift into the offense to increase the havoc and Nerazzurri patrols the middle of the defense. The team will also use the 3-6-1, 3-5-2 and 4-5-1 formations favored by past Az-cz teams.

OOC: RP Permissions

Style +3
My opponent, if they RP first, may do the following:
Choose my goalscorers Y (please do, but if you do have most goals come in the second half)
Godmod Scoring Events Y (within reason)
RP injuries to my players Y (within reason)
Godmod injuries to my players N
Hand out Yellow cards to my players N
Hand out Red cards to my players N
Godmod Other Events Y (within reason)

Basically if it's something that doesn't affect my RPing options in future matches, go ahead. That means killing my players, kidnapping them, turning them into zombies or what not are all out. But international incidents and what not are basically ok.

As far as stadium details go all of the stadiums that will be used in this cup are the same as were used in World Cup 33. Az-cz is a nation of thieving peace loving generous socialists. It is a sort of Utopian place where few people where clothes except as necessary for work or weather.

Interviews: We will allow interviews from Az-cz or interviews of any Az-czzers. Any player or coach, or director Noz-Tf is available for interviews. Anybody else is also available for interviews, but they haven't been created in character. As far as Az-cz media organizations the main ones would be the Az-cz scroll or the -Sports channel's main soccer reporter former
striker Lur-Mn.

Landau Institute's selected doctors

Style: -3

Estresse Intenso is a very dangerous and difficult place to live. Its citizens have to support all the stress resultant of a society that is near to an anarchy. The country itself doesn't have a National Team, but there is one place that has, the only place that doesn't have the pressure of Estresse Intenso's way of life.

Many people from Estresse Intenso succumbed to the stress. Most of them became crazy and couldn't live in the country anymore. So, they went to the Landau Institute, where the stress can be controlled and any craziness signs can be controlled by the many doctors that live there, employed by Doctor Rogério Landau.

All the players of Estresse Intenso's National Team come from the Landau Institute, and there they can train 12 hours per day, every day. But this time, after recent failures of a team composed by patients, Doctor Rogério Landau decided to pick the most respected doctors of the Institute (those who can play well football) and created a team composed by doctors and professors.

Because of this entirely new way of choosing the players (all the players will go to their first international competition), Estresse Intenso has a completely new style, more defensive. Please note that most of the players are old. This is because someone can only be considered a doctor after intense study, and the minimum age is of 23 (but few are able to become doctor at this age).

To become a professor, the doctors need to keep studying, and only after a specific number of services made for the Landau Institute, a doctor gets this title (it takes approximately twenty years). A professor works together with the commanders of the Institute. The title would suggest that he would start acting as a teacher for young doctors, but this isn't the case.

So, see the Doctors Team of Landau Institute, with their specialities:

The Parliamentary Dictatorship of Kampfers' Official World Cup Roster

# 10 - GK Kasey Kuhn - Assistant Captain

A vocal goalie, he comes out of his net a bit more than is advisable. He has well rounded skills and great reflexes. His strong legs allow him to make powerful kicks and allow him to have a greater diving distance than most goalies. He seems to have trouble holding on to shots, and allows unneccesary rebounds.

# 21 - DF Leonhard Kunibert

A good defender. He forces players to swing out wide, then uses his large body to get in front of their crosses. He toys with their emotions and raggs on them the whole game.

# 3 - DF Maximilian Heike

Heike is a good defender, but he has a few problems. He likes to force players inside where he has help, but this leads to unguarded players on the wing. Heike has work to do if he wants to stay on the squad next year.

# 99 - DF Hartwin Jochen

Jochen is the best on-ball defender on the squad. As such, he often gets assigned to target the best player on the opposing squad. If he is assigned, he acts liek a demon and torments them the whole night.

# 23 - DF Jochim Kayetan

A good, not great defender, Kayetan is the best passer off the back line on this squad. His morale is subject to mood swings depending on how his individual play and the teams play is. Throughout the game, he can have numerous swings, and his play is greatly affected by them, either for better or for worse.

# 7 - DF Parsifal Gebbert

The center defender in the Kampferian wall defense. His superb tackling skills allow him to turn away many attacks. He has suprising speed for a defender, and uses this to toy with attackers. He rarely bites on headfakes.

# 11 - MF Joseph Kai

Kai is a all around player on the Kampferian squad. He plays good defense and good offense. The only knock on him is that he doesn't do anything "great."

# 00 - MF Marwin Michael

Michael is the best passer on the squad. He is an expert in crosses and as such kicks the corners. He tends to spread out and play on the wing to capitalize with his passing on offense. This can come back to haunt him on defense though, as he can end up hung out too far wide which allows opposing players to sprint past and easily get to the defenders.

# 13 - MF Michael Ballack - Captain

By far the best player in Kampfers. His superb footworkallow him to dribble past the best of defenders. His passes are always crisp, and his shots are always on target. He lacks a very strong leg, although his does well enough, and he tends to misplace crosses. He takes the penalty and free kicks for the Kampferian squad.

# 10 - FW Ansgar Severin

Not the striker that Podolski is, Severin is a tall man and a high jumper. He uses these in coordination on crosses into the box very effectively. Most of the goals he scores are headers, but occasionaly he scores by more conventional means. If a foward is needed for defense, Severin is the one called back. However, he is not the fastest and this can lead to the midfielders getting upfield ahead of him.

# 1 - FW Oliver Podolski

The fastest player on the squad, Podolski uses his gazelle like speed to sprint past defenders when running down long ariel passes. Once past the defenders he can beat the goalie with a variety of moves.

The formation is a 5-2-1-2:

http://www.thirdgeek.com/ns/worldcup/graphics/flags/36/UCS/ Unified Capitalizt States
The Unified Capitalizt States, sometimes referred to as Commerce Heights (though not in formal writing), is a very large, very rich nation consisting of an area in Atlantian Oceania and of the entire planet Sirius D, the former Aquillan homeworld. It has no laws, other than a general prohibition on harming another person or their property except as permitted by contract. Many future-tech things are used in the UCS, including teleporters, spaceships, and extremely tall buildings, though most such technologies are too expensive for the general population.

There are two organizations based in the UCS that compete in the World Cup:

The first, and better known, is called Capitalizt SLANI, often shortened to SLANI. SLANI is responsible for the hosting of this World Cup, and will take the UCS’s auto-qualifying slot. It has competed since World Cup 25, and a previous organization, the CHFF (which is considered to be the same team, much like Serbia is considered the same team as Serbia and Montenegro IRL), competed between World Cups 7 and 25. SLANI also claims to inherit the record of Bedistan, which competed from World Cup 5 to 32. This claim is not generally recognized outside of the UCS, but it is the reason why their uniforms feature five stars above the logo (for Commerce Heights’s victory in WC15 and Bedistan’s in WCs 21, 26, 27, and 30). Prior to World Cup 30, when 자스연 (Jasīʼyūn) first entered, Capitalizt SLANI’s team was known as Commerce Heights (which was, at the time, the official short name of the Unified Capitalizt States).

The other team is named 자스연 (Jasīʼyūn), often abbreviated JSY (though not Commerce Heights JSY, which is merely a contrivance to create a valid NS nation name), which has competed since World Cup 30 and has never qualified.

—————

Stadia
자스연 (Jasīʼyūn) will tour the many large stadia in the Unified Capitalizt States for their home qualifying games. Though it officially has a “home stadium,” this simply means that Capitalizt SLANI may not play its home games there (however, arrangements have been made to hold some World Cup matches there).

Barring exceptional circumstances, all home games played by either UCS team will sell out, and as many fans as are permitted will travel for away games.

Quality ratings for each of the venues are given. Keep in mind that a two-star stadium by Capitalizt standards would likely be a UEFA five-star stadium (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Stadia_List) IRL.

Due to the size of the Unified Capitalizt States and the large number of suitable stadia for the World Cup, the UCS venues have been split into four regions, each of which will host one of the first round groups:

http://www.thirdgeek.com/ns/worldcup/graphics/wc36stadiamap/

Group A

Sokojito Überdome
Location: 소코지토 도시, 소코지토 (Sokojito Dosi, Sokojito)
Capacity: 400 552
Quality: ****
Will host: two first-round matches, one second-round match, one semifinal
Built for the infamous “CHO:P” World Cup 26 bid, the Sokojito Überdome is the largest known stadium in Atlantian Oceania. To allow for its massive capacity, teleportation devices are used to get spectators into their seats, which are inaccessible by other means. Aside from the final of World Cup 26, the Überdome has hosted several matches between Capitalizt SLANI and Krytenia, which have earned the stadium a reputation for very high-scoring games.

Capitalizm
Location: 유포, 소코지토 (ʼYupo, Sokojito—note the apostrophe)
Capacity: 161 803
Quality: *****
Will host: two first-round matches, one quarterfinal
Capitalizm, named after the economic system that has brought great wealth to the people of the Unified Capitalizt States, was constructed at great expense for the CHFF’s World Cup 16 bid with Melmond, and was also once the national stadium. Though it is traditional in design and does not require teleporters like the Überdome, it does utilize a number of other sophisticated technologies to enhance the fans’ experience.

Auswärtssieg Arena
Location: Natestadt, Lontorika
Capacity: 127 202
Quality: *****
Will host: one first-round match
Given the limited success and fan base of the local team, the Natestadt Nationalisten, the club successfully lobbied the owners for it to be given the name Auswärtssieg Arena, meaning “arena of away wins.” Although Capitalizt SLANI has not encountered many away wins there, the name has stuck. It is of fairly advanced construction, but does not quite match Capitalizm in the technology used. Still, it is regarded by many as the best sports venue in the UCS.

Keto Olympic Stadium
Location: 케토, 소코지토 (Keto, Sokojito)
Capacity: 65 535
Quality: **
Will host: one first-round match
Built on top of an older, run-down stadium for the purpose of hosting the ceremonies of the II Olympic Winter Games, Keto Olympic Stadium has brought a significant amount of business to the city. New construction in former East Bedistan has significantly reduced the importance of this venue, and its owners were unsuccessful in lobbying for its use during World Cup 35, but it was accepted as the socond-smallest venue to host a World Cup 36 match in the UCS.

Group B

JPL Paladin Stadium (자스연 (Jasīʼyūn) home stadium)
Location: Port Lusambo, Jativa
Capacity: 128 400
Quality: ***
Will host: two first-round matches, one second-round match
JPL (Jativa Power and Light) Paladin Stadium is a relatively new venue, built for the once-dominant Port Lusambo Paladins of the 자스연 리그 (Jasīʼyūn Ligī). Though many supporters have since switched their loyalty to the SLANI League’s KQ Qidádire Putemo, the Paladins still draw a decent crowd, and more should come to see 자스연 (Jasīʼyūn) in action. An article in the Aeropag Tribune about the RP bonus machine installed there has earned it the nickname “the Randome.”

Aeropag Olympic Stadium
Location: Aeropag, Jativa
Capacity: 107 596
Quality: ****
Will host: two first-round matches
Aeropag Olympic Stadium was originally named the Orange–Green Bowl—a reference to the original football team that played there, the Aeropag Hurricanes. As its current name suggests, it hosted the opening and closing ceremonies of the I Olympic Winter Games in Aeropag. It is a fairly average stadium, not using particularly extravagant technologies nor having a significant local fan base that attends games played there, but is well-maintained.

Noka Communications Stadium
Location: Noka, Jativa
Capacity: 81 093
Quality: ***
Will host: one first-round match
Noka Communications Stadium is an old, almost-forgotten venue in downtown Noka, originally constructed during the CHFF’s failed bid to host World Cup 13. It will be renovated for World Cup 36, with a slight increase in capacity.

Cirto Seaside Stadium
Location: Cirto, Jativa
Capacity: 62 832
Quality: ***
Will host: one first-round match
Despite its low capacity and comparatively inadequate facilites, Cirto Seaside Stadium has one of the best locations of any venue in the UCS. The stadium is designed so that most of the seats have a clear view of the Jativan Sea as well as the pitch.

Group C

Metropolitan Stadium
Location: Commerce Heights, New Manhattan
Capacity: 180 278
Quality: ****
Will host: two first-round matches, one second-round match
Metropolitan Stadium, one of the new venues constructed for World Cup 36, was built on the site of Maxisoft Stadium, the original home stadium of the CHFF, and serves as a replacement for the recently-demolished CDA Stadium.

Drakcorp Querzakhi Olympic Stadium
Location: Querzakhi, Tarraconesis
Capacity: 157 080
Quality: *****
Will host: two first-round matches, one second-round match
Drakcorp Querzakhi Olympic Stadium was built by the Spaamanian corporation Drakcorp for the Capitalizt club, Querzakhi United, that it purchased. It hosted the ceremonies and many of the events for the Games of the II Olympiad. Though the stadium has been around for about forty years, it was extensively renovated for the Olympics, and is much like a new stadium. It has some of the same advanced features as Capitalizm, and additionally has the ability to replace the pitch instantaneously by teleporting replacement pitches that are stored underground.

Anaphase Alchemy Stadium (Capitalizt SLANI home stadium)
Location: Sonoma Center, New Manhattan
Capacity: 81 067
Quality: ****
Will host: one first-round match
Home of the Sonoma Center Panthers, one of the greatest clubs in Capitalizt football, Anaphase Alchemy Stadium attracts a broad local supporter base, making it very difficult or very expensive to find tickets. The stadium is well-known for an active streak of over five hundred consecutive sold-out Panthers games, which has made the management somewhat hesitant to significantly expand.

Koepel van IJsselmeer
Location: IJsselmeer, Tarraconesis
Capacity: 76 510
Quality: ***
Will host: one first-round match
Koepel van IJsselmeer was a joint project by Capitalizt SLANI and the remnants of the Bedistani Football Association’s AFC IJsselmeer, which currently plays its home matches in front of a 1500-seat temporary stand. Due to its proximity to the former border between the UCS and Bedistan, the local residents have a strong dislike of Capitalizts, and there are rumors of a plan to protest in favor of Bedistani independence from the UCS at the match played here.

Group D

Esther Marchese Memorial Stadium
Location: Sonoma City, Bedistan
Capacity: 271 828
Quality: *****
Will host: two first-round matches, one quarterfinal
Esther Marchese Memorial Stadium is the most ambitious of the CHEAT Alliance’s (parent company of Capitalizt SLANI) stadium construction projects in the former East Bedistan. It is currently the second-largest stadium in the Unified Capitalizt States, behind the Überdome. Though it does not meet the same high standards as Capitalizm or Drakcorp Querzakhi Olympic Stadium, it would still be a top-tier venue by most nations’s standards.

C4Stadion
Location: Metrewalk, Lontorika
Capacity: 131 160
Quality: *****
Will host: two first-round matches
C4Stadion, designed by the same architect that created Auswärtssieg Arena, is another state-of-the-art Lontorikan stadium. The stadium is built inside a skyscraper (similar to a plan to rebuild Aeropag Olympic Stadium that never received funding), which includes parking and hotel accomodations. It is named after its sponsor, the Capitalizt Consolidated Conglomeration Corporation (C4), which is also responsible for the manufacture of both UCS teams’ kits.

Stádie Síntaüilire’da
Location: Otário, Tingitana
Capacity: 100 000
Quality: ***
Will host: one first-round match
Due to a startling lapse of creativity, and a surprising lack of sponsors, CHEAT simply decided to name this stadium after its capacity. It seems to have been designed as an average stadium in every respect, with no significant architectural or other features to distinguish it from other oval-shaped venues.

Unity Stadium
Location: International City, Capital Territory
Capacity: 75 000
Quality: ***
Will host: one first-round match
Unity Stadium was built as a neutral venue in the International City of Paripana, a city that was constructed between the UCS, Bedistan, and Lontorika that is jointly administered by the three nations. After the fall of Bedistan and Lontorika and their integration into the UCS, the city became the nation’s capital. Its first use was to host some group matches during World Cup 8 in Bedistan, including those of the Commerce Heights team. It has since been renovated for use by the Capitalizt national teams, as well as by the Capitalizt club KQ Internepáïire and the now-defunct Bedistani club Internepáïire Bédistem.

Final venue
The World Cup 36 final will be held somewhere in the Unified Capitalizt States, but the location has not yet been publicly released. There are rumors that Capitalizt SLANI has a “special plan” for the staging of the final, but they have denied everything.

Sports Section

The Third generation makes it's stand

After Milchama's most successful World Cup campaign to date and the glorious second generation of Milchamian football getting a lot of glory coach Damian Hill decided to scrap the whole team and start the third generation saying, "In World Cup 29 we played the first generation one to many times and didn't qualify and it's not going to happen again." Shockingly he made sense, anyway here is the roster:

Gk: GK: Halutz Dalton- Big kid. Known for stopping shot based on his frame alone. His actual goalkeeping abilities have been questioned but he did win the starting job. So that should put them to rest, for a while anyway. Somehow chosen over the Fletchers.
D: Steve Emter- A late comer to the scene, Emter played great for the Mongolian Horsies in getting them to regional competition and is now ready to be a member of the national team.
D: Daig Mitchell- Hard tackling central defender who was known among his peers for his excess of cards. However this has been curbed considerably he still has a bit of temper. We hope he can keep it under control. Got the sub job to help himself with the temper.
D: Kent Rolt- The most famous member of the squad for his two behind the halfway line goals in one game. Can score from anywhere on the field and can also tackle well, the complete package.
M: Nicholai Marchakov- Athletic fast and good ball control. Looks like a younger Darian Flinters and much more like the first generation of Milchamian wings unlike Lonnen and Manin. Suprisingly got included in the squad.
M: Kenny Rintell- Johnny's son. An absolutely wonderful central midfielder who is probably better than his father. Will play on the Milchamian team for a long time. Is actually only 14 right now.
M: Kev Kelton- Great ballhandling skill and good pace plus nice crossing ability. Unfortunately very volatile and makes poor decisions but his natural is incredible, we assure you.
F: Kevin Flossmore- Very speedy and has now become a decent crosser. Will be looked to control Kelton to make sure he doesn't go crazy and kill somebody.
F: Tal Flar- Tall and good in the air. Flar's goal scoring ability will be key to the team advancing. His tall frame has helped club team FC Doom get on the verge of IAFL qualification.
F: Avi Belmowitz- (Godmod) Lans seems to have some special plan for him as he is the least proven player on the squad. However, his talent seems amazing but he will be closely watched to see how he does.
F:Mike E. Forent- This generations middle initialed player. Became a winger after the center strikers places were closed, expect him to come roaming inside a lot.

Substitutes:
Gk: Fletcher James- The first of the Fletcher's to get a first team shot internatinoally wants to prove how good he and they can be.
F: Tilar Flitty- Did great for the B team and now comes up to the A for the first time as the first sub. Is expected to make Joseph look better and win games off the bench like Bantin and Joseph before him.
Horse: Rovers Return- The starter for the past two AOCAFs comes to the first team. He will be ridden by Keffer if he ever comes on.
F: Catch Esrimdo- While his name might be a paradox. His play isn't, his crosses are definitely below quality but his speed is near unmatched. Part of Lans' work to improve the speed on the team.
D: Kendry Wilkirk- A little larger than the average defensive wing but he has matured quite quickly and looks great at it. Can also play centerback and his movement has been considered key to the success of this team.

After they completely seceded from the Association Oliverrienne de Soccer, the Soccer Association of Limbrogidlian Teams was formed by teams from the northern side of Oliverry to create a soccer association for the Limbrogidlian people. SALT has a couple of announcements to do, but first, here is our roster for the upcoming World Cup:

All the matches of the Limbrogidlian national team are going to be played in the Ennemies' Complex, a 50 years-old stadium in Ennemy City, Southern Limbrogidlia. The stadium has a capacity of 78,325 people inside, and has hosted matches in World Cup 26, hosted by Oliverry and one of the World Cup 36's hosts, the Unified Capitalizt States' Capitalizt SLANI association.

Similarly to the Oliverrian Soccer Association (OOC: The Limbrogidlians claim it also has an English name, even though the English name is not used anymore by l'AOS. The English form stays in the logo because of l'AOS's past), SALT has an agreement with the Oliverrian Public Network in Limbrogidlian language, Televit Limbrogidler, which will broadcast all the matches from the Limbrogidlian team.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/Oli55/TelevitLimbrogidler1logooff.png

Jariss squad
Style -5 (or whatever max defense is)
Lineup 4-4-2

After a moderately successful first attempt two years ago, the Jariss team spent most of its offtime searching for a replacement for Coach Maru Hiniru who resigned after making a guaranteed win over Cafundeu in the Cup of Harmony which failed miserably as Cafundeu won 4-0. Embarrassed by his action Hiniru step down to the disappointment of the team. However the locals have turned out to support the team in a big way and nearly 60 people arrived at the team tryouts this year, double the turnout from last time.

Coach- Pitu Kirui age 45 After a long search with other candidates unable to fulfill the obligations of a coach, it fell to Coach Hiniru’s assistant coach for the high school Spiders who finally was confinved to take the job. A bit inexperienced but a true student of the Jariss style of play. Kirui was wise enough to take on an assistant himself to help deal with the coaching duties. His first change however was to add a second forward at the expense of a defender to try and open up the attack slightly to not put so much pressure on Minna Dawo this time around.

Assistant Coach/M- Leni Banama 37 While still listed as a reserve midfielder, the veteran of last Cup agreed to sign on as an assistant coach this time around as well. Claiming to be too old to run around all match long he’d rather watch his wife Gia do the running instead.


G- Tali Vindu age 20 (starter) Now graduated, Vindu has still had some trouble overcoming a lack of confidence in her abilities after having a hard time with her first taste of international competition. However Kirui knows that she just needs a few strong outings in a row to reclaim the dominating form she showed throughout her career on the isle.

G- Aru Treni age 26 (reserve) part time member of the police and fire department he is the keeper for their squad and the only other decent keeper on the isle. Surprisingly he was more able to adapt to the international style of play much better than Vindu as his play markedly improved from the BoF to WC35 to the CoH last year. Some thing this was because of his maturity due to being older than the then high school senior Vindu


F- Minna Dawo age 22 (starter) Another veteran of last cup, Minna was possibly the only member of the team who actually enjoyed the increased scoring as she accounted for about 2/3 of the entire team’s scoring since they joined international play.

F- Li Chu age 19 (starter) Chu just missed breaking Minna’s high school record last year finishing with nine goals, one shy of Dawo’s mark . He was immediately drafted by Kirui when he became the coach as the needed second attacker.

F- Konu Zaryi age 30 (reserve) Zaryi has taken time off from his father’s fishing boat to join the team for the second straight cup after adding a few goals the first time around in spot starts. Graduated from Bigtopia University with a degree in marine biology.


M- Tranae Vyrroi age 23 (starter) Showed up at the tryouts despite being on the rugby team in high school and somehow made the team. She has the legs to keep up on the field but her actual skill has improved since her first cup to the point she is actually respectable at most facets of the game.

M- Joa Giranu age 20 (starter) One of the team’s two beneficiaries of foreign training since the last cup. Giranu has spent the last couple of years playing for the EC Elville squad in the nation of Cafundeu’s local leagues. It is hoped this added experience will help our team in this cup

M- Andre Miware age 32 (starter) this tour guide discovered he hadn’t forgotten everything he knew from his days with the Spiders and made the team and has now returned for a second and last run or so he says. Last time around he was one of only four players to actually score a goal and is looked at as a possible alternate scoring threat if need be.

M- Gia Banama age 28 (starter) wife of Leni Banama, she earned her own way onto the team even if some feel she’s there to keep an eye on her husband’s roving eye.

M- Leni Banama age 37-(reserve)

M/D- Fae Numuu age 18 (reserve) The versatile high school senior is the other current Spider on the team this time around. A good passer and ballhandler she is fast enough and flexible enough to play anywhere as either a midfielder or defender.


D- Kalo Yannia age 33 (starter) a good defender back in his days as a Spider though now some think he’s lost a step and shouldn’t be here this time around. Yannia says this is his final cup either way as he;s getting too old for this.

D- Fya Panai age 20 (starter) the best defender on the Spiders in her high school days she was a clear choice to make the team when Jariss was announced to enter the WC for the first time and returns here for a second try. Her play was a bit inconsistent at times but many feel a few years maturity will have taken care of this problem

D- Goru Lyani age 21 (starter) Goru was also named as the Jariss player to accept the Errinunderan offer to spend a year at the Ellery Camp in Errinundera. Also named to the BoF All Star team and now he returns to Jariss with the benefit of that teaching under his belt and may in fact have come up with a few new defensive ideas for the team to try out this time around.

D- Datu Kippo age 28 (starter) This lifeguard was a bit of a surprise starter after skipping high school to surf for four years. Once again, after surfing for the last three years after the end of the CoH, Kippo showed up at the tryouts and again made the team leaving Coach Kirui to despair over how good he could have been if Datu had only stayed away from the surf all these years

D- Relao Yashi age 20 (reserve) Arguably a starter in Yannia’s spot, Relao was perhaps the victim of Coach Kirui’s radical idea of adding a second forward at the expense of a defender. Conservatives believe this to be a foolish move but nonetheless one that finds Yashi coming off the bench once more.

D- Riena Querre age 24 (reserve) The third new face on the team and the only one out of high school, she returned from a four year overseas college program in geology and volcanic studies. Showing up at the tryouts she was impressive enough on defense to make the squad having played on college intramural teams all four years.

Coaching:
Manager: Jan Jorgenson
Asst. Manager: Ensio Varg

Former starting keeper Ensio Varg who is now the manager of Cafundeuan team Atlético Insular, initially declined an offer as head manager, prefering to concntrate more on improving the standing of Insular. However, once former Pschycho defensive mainstay Jan Jorgenson accepted the head position, Varg consented to be his assistant.
Several of the big names from last cup's squad have retired fromt the international stage, most notably Patrik Hermanni and Arman Latvala, who have chosen to leave the national team to concentrate on the ends of their club careers, also in Cafundeu. Despite these losses, there is plenty of experience left on the team, led by Emil Jalmari, Pauli Aimo and Jaska Wirmann.

Starters' Profiles:
Jaska Wirmann (GK): Jaska proved his skills last cup, and is now seen as one of the most underrated players in Squornshelan history. At least he used to be. He is now hailed as the best Squornshelan keeper since Marko Antropov. The only bad thing about him is that it took management so long to give him a starting spot.

Njord Fridtjof (RB): Fridtjof is the quickest of our defensemen. He often plays almost as a wingback, joining the attack on occasion, and plays very aggressively. Attackers coming down his wing will be given very little time at all to handle the ball.

Gunnar Jonsson (CB): Gunnar is a good defender, but not great. He can be counted on not to make any bad mistakes, but the brilliant sort of plays that are sometimes necessary are often beyond his ability. We'll be counting on our strong defensive midfield to keep the ball to the outsides again.

Sten Mortenson (LB): The formerly much maligned Mortenson is hardly recognizable as the young fullback who was responsible for so many goals against in the past. Mortenson has taken the lessons of his mistakes to heart and really made big strides last cup. We expect very solid performance from him.

Pauli Aimo (RDM): Aimo is one of the more aware players on the field for Squornshelous. He has a knack for pass interceptions and anticipating the direction of play well. He doesn't quite have the speed to play further forward, but he makes up for it with good endurance and constant hustle.

Axel Tryggve (LDM): Tryggve had been a good player off the bench for several cups now, and steps out into a starting position wiht plenty of experience. He is a very good containment defender, and is skilled and closing down passing lanes through the middle. With him alongside Aimo, it should be very difficult to work through the middle of the field against Squornshelous.

Emil Jalmari (RAM): Definitely the best shot of our midfielders, he will be getting a lot of feeds up the middle and down the right wing. He has matured as a goal scorer since his debut in World Cup 33, and is expected to lead the team during this cup. He is the team captain, and will be controlling the attack.

Tauno Reimanen (LAM): Like Tryggve, Reimanen has earned plenty of playing time off the bench and on the B team. He will have to prove his worth, however, to stay in his starting spot. A talented crop of youngsters including Mikkula Kuivalainen and Anton Gulbrand are looking for opportunities to play.

Roman Svoboda (RF): Svoboda showed great promise when he was handed a starting spot about halfway through qualifying for World Cup 35 and he is expected to build on that this time around. If Vilho doens't fulfil expectations, Svoboda will be under serious pressure to perform.

Pertti Villho (CF): After a very disappointing time last cup, Vilho will try to rediscover the skill he showed in World Cup 34. He has the potential to emerge as the next featured striker for the Pschychoes, but it remains to be seen if he will live up to it.

Dmitri Polokov (LF): Like Svoboda, Polokov was vaulted to a starting spot during the Pschychoes shaky World Cup 35 qualifying campaign, adn while he didn't perform quite as well as Svoboda, he certainly exceeded expectations. We're hoping for modest scoring from Polokov this cup as well.

Squornshelous will play in a 3-2-3-3 formation

Squornshelan Kit:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v629/squorn/6456802d.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v629/squorn/squornkitback.jpg
For away kit, substitute black for red and white for black, both kits have black shorts
Keepers wear a plain white kit at home and a plain red kit away.
General Information:
All Squornshelan Home matches will be played at Vogsphere Arena in our capital, Vogsphere unless otherwise stated. The Arena is an aging, but frequently renovated stadium that seats 75,000.

In culture and ethnicity, Squornshelous is a mixture of Slavic and Nordic peoples. Fish and game meats are very prevalent in local cuisine and alchohol of some kind is served with most meals. Many people are very heavy drinkers, and although the stuff served in "tourist bars" is weaker, foreigners not used to the lifestyle may find themselves drunk under the table by locals fairly rapidly, especially if they find their way to the bars that the indigs frequent.

Squornshelous is a fairly mountainous country and winter's are harsh, due to our high latitude. Summer brings pleasant weather, perfect for football matches. Squornshelan players tend to work especially hard at conditioning in order to keep from being at a disadvantage when playing in hot, or humid climates. Visiting teams would do well to do some conditioning of their own. Most Squornshelan cities are located on the sea coast, and the breezes off the water can be quite chilly, even in summer months.


I am willing to:

have one or more of my players defect: Y
allow other nations to have one or more of their players defect to my country: Y

pretty much TG me regarding any of those and we'll talk it over.

IMPORTANT ROSTER REVISION

It has now been revealed that the use of 'philosophers' in WC qualifiers was a cunning Imperial ploy to lull the opposition into a false sense of security by convincing them that the Holy Empire had mistaken a football world cup for a philosophy world cup. As the Imperial squad dominated qualification, finishing with the best record of any team, it seems to have worked. Unfortunately, in this interview (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12938784&postcount=483), a couple of the players gave the game away. It remains to be seen whether the Imperial Squad will do as well now that everyone knows they're actually top-class footballers and can prepare accordingly. Most people think not.

THE REVISED ROSTER:

GOALKEEPER -

1 - Jean Claude (existentialist/gitanes) is actually... Andrew Dalassano

2 - Jean Pierre (existentialist/gauloises) is actually... Nicephorus Phocaso

3-5-2 with overlapping wingers to become 3-3-4 when attacking. Style modifier remains unchanged at +5.

The squad have also reverted to their traditional famous gold, red, and black kits:

Important OOC RP information remains at the bottom of this roster post.

----------------------------------------------------------
The original roster RP:

SOMEWHERE DEEP IN ISPI HQ

"...filing our entry form for the World Cup, John."

"That's right, Manuel, says so right here across the top: ENTRY FORM, WORLD CUP OF PHILOSOPHY"

"Are you sure that's the correct World Cup, John? I mean, we don't want a repeat of that fiasco when we entered our International Pornography Squad into the football World Cup XXX.... God, that made us a bit of a laughing stock in Ordinary Reality."

"As much of a laughing stock as playing an egg in goal in World Cup 35?"

"Yeah. That was pretty damn embarrassing too."

"Look, Manuel, that aside, orders is orders. We've been told to file this form, so we have to file it; we have to assume ISPI know what they're doing. This isn't a Holy Empire Football Association problem - HEFA aren't involved with cultural issues, only football."

"But what if this turns out to be about football after all? If you ask me, we shouldn't be dabbling in Ordinary Reality events. We rarely understand them, we rarely do well in them, and we're prone to completely misunderstanding the nature of the event. I mean, what will we do if it turns out we have accidentally entered this lot into a football tournament?"

"Well, then, Manuel.... I suppose that they'll just stand around arguing with each other over whether there's any point in having goals or not...."


ENTRY FORM - WORLD CUP OF PHILOSOPHY

YOUR NATION: The Holy Empire of Alasdair I Frosticus

YOUR TEAM PHILOSOPHY: French existentialism and nihilism

SQUAD MEMBERS:
We have eleven squad members.
(please note that we have stated both the preferred philosophy of each squad member and his preferred brand of cigarette)

1 - Jean Claude (existentialist/gitanes)

2 - Jean Pierre (existentialist/gauloises)

3 - Jean Paul (existentialist/gauloises) cap

4 - Jean Yves (nihilist/gitanes)

5 - Jean Christophe (existentialist/gitanes)

6 - Jean Jacques (nihilist/gitanes)

7 - Jean Nicholas (nihilist/gauloises)

8 - Jean Baudoin (nihilist/gitanes)

9 - Jean Albert (nihilist [with anarchist sympathies]/gitanes)

10 - Jean Leopold (existentialist/gauloises)

11 - Jean Gaultier (existentialist/gauloises)

Note that for reasons that utterly escape us, squad members eight through ten have been nicknamed 'les rois des Belges' by the other squad members. Must be some sort of French philosophy in-joke.

TEAM COLOURS: While Imperial teams almost always wear the gold and red colours of the Imperial flag, for this philosophy tournament the Holy Empire will be wearing black.

TEAM STYLE: The Imperial philosophers will be attacking their opponents - style +5 on a scale of -5 to +5. They will be taking no particular formation when arguing their case.

---------------------------------------------

OOC -

For further information on the Holy Empire, the Dreamed Realm and other relevant background detail, please go to the now more or less completely up to date Holy Empire NS WIKI page (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Alasdair_I_Frosticus) (that's a link, newbies). Assume all 'philosophical discussions'/football matches will be taking place in the Imperial Hippodrome

Please remember that 'The Holy Empire' is the preferred name for this nation in IC media reports. 'Frostican' is an acceptable adjective. I'm perfectly happy for you to use 'Alasdair I Frosticus' and 'AIF' in OOC posts and threads.

And my RP preferences?

Feel free to do whatever you want short of attacking, damaging, or in any other way harming the Holy Empire, the Dreamed Realm, the Archregimancy or their people.

Bettia World Cup 36 Squad

Style Modifier

We don't do defence - we trash defence.
In typically gung-ho fashion, Bettia will be playing with as positive a style modifier as possible (+5), utilising a highly attacking 2-5-3 / 2-3-5 formation.

Roleplaying

If RPing first, the FAB give our opponents permission
to RP / godmod pretty much anything they like,
short of killing or maiming anyone.

Nickname: The Aroras
First Kit: Green and gold quartered shirts, green shorts
Second Kit: Blue and white quartered shirts, blue shorts (this kit is always worn against any teams playing in predominantly red strips)
National Stadium: Tiddles Park, Gabalfa (capacity 102,000 - approx 50,000 seated)All of Bettia's matches will be played at their largest stadium. Designed by reknowned architect Kenzo Violin, Tiddles Park is instantly recognisable by its prominent roof structure. Originally designed as a 81000-capacity all-seater stadium, the FAB took the decision to remove the lower tier of seats in favour of good old-fashioned terracing. The result... an unbelievably loud atmosphere that can intimidate all but the most hardy of opponents. Formerly known as Stadiwm Bettia, the stadium was renamed in honour of Bettia's long-time arora mascot Tiddles, who was tragically killed by an invading army of giant ants.
A few facts about Bettia:
Bettians are well-known for their politeness and friendliness, a fact backed up by many 'reliable' UN reports.
Bettia is a mainly muslim country, so any fans looking to have an away-day piss-up will be very disappointed. Our local tea and scones are very popular though, as are the famous Butetown meat pies which are widely available from many outlets around the stadium.
Bettia is reknowned for its natural beauty and glorious tropical weather, so any visiting fans wanting to make a vacation of their match are more than welcome. Favourite holiday destinations include the south coast (with its many pristine beaches and clear blue waters) and the Banastra Rainforest.
Bettians are legendary for their dislike of all things red due to its association with all things evil - hell, Satan, fire, anger, rage etc. Visiting teams who normally wear red as part of their national strip are kindly requested not to do so. However, we do have a defence against this - the patented Azurlens™ blue-tinted sunglasses which made their debut at World Cup 33 to great effect, which help to nullify their opponents redness.
Bettians love football so much that giant screens are now a permanent fixture in many cities and towns.
Details of our national anthem, map, currency and many other interesting and not-so-interesting facts can be found at the Bettia Wiki (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Bettia)




Manager:
Amir BettisonAnother of Bettia's heroes of their early days, Bettison stepped into the gap left by his former team-mate Stuart Abdul-Rahim after the World Cup winning manager's well-earned retirement. He soon followed in his former team-mate's footsteps by leading Bettia to their second World Cup. Despite being a goalkeeper, he has pledged to retain the all-out attack that has made the Aroras into a feared team.




Goalkeepers:

1. Chris Swift - Dunboor FC (Cafundéu), age 24, 25 capsThe phrase 'jumping in at the deep end' certainly seemed to apply to this youngster, who found himself thrust into the Bettian squad as a fresh-faced debutant. This lanky 6'5" keeper has incredible agility, a fact not lost on the former goalkeeper managing the team who went on record stating that he sees a great deal of potential in this young shot-stopper - a potential that was realised in World Cup 35 when he conceded a measly 12 goals in the Aroras' 28 game run to the championship. His fine form has seen him make a lucrative move to Cafundéu where he now plays for the much-fancied Dunboor FC.
2. Alatas - Persubarnas, age 23, 3 capsAnother young prospect who has found himself thrust into the first team ahead of more experienced players, although his chances of making an impression were severely dented by Swift's fine displays between the sticks. However, his imperious club form sees him retain his spot in the Bettian squad.



Defence:

3. Said bin Said Ismail - Butetown Dragons, age 30, 73 capsA mainstay of the squad since World CUp 33 who more than cemented his place with many solid performances. Just like his father, he has also shown a definate talent with long throws, proving instrumental in setting up some swift and deadly counter-attacks
4. Mark Silversmith - Akani Sands, age 30, 30 capsA versitile utility player who made his debut during AOCAF 19, Silversmith has quickly gained a good reputation for his vision and accurate tackling.
5. Thomas Whitecroft - Gabalfa Rovers, age 20, 0 capsAnother product of the Rovers fine youth program, Whitecroft is a highly dependable, albeit inexperienced full back.



Midfield:

6. Ariel Haynes - Butetown Dragons, age 30, 48 caps, 5 goals (captain)
The captain of Bettia's squad who had the honour of lifting the World Cup trophy. Haynes showed he has what it takes to boss the midfield, with his charging runs setting up many goals for the strikers.
7. Frank Myfanwy - Persubarnas, age 32, 56 caps, 1 goal
This committed, firey character is a strong central midfield figure who is normally one of Bettia's unsung heroes - however, he showered himself in glory by scoring the winning goal in the WC35 final. A player who can launch long throws.
8. Ari Suparputra - Tamrida, age 23, 7 capsA feisty young player who has carved out a reputation as a ball-winner, putting in some fine substitute performances for the Aroras - now he gets his chances in the starting XI. His crunching tackles are usually on-target, although he has seen plenty of cards in his time.
9. Wahid Abdullah - Tamrida, age 21, 0 capsAn exciting young player with a great work ethic and a excellent turn of speed, along with a keen eye for goal. Technically very good, although his temper sometimes gets the better of him.



Wingers:

10. Adi Bandasera - Perumnasih, age 30, 77 caps, 2 goals
One of the feared players on the domestic scene, his ruthless and relentless style suits the Bettian Takilan game perfectly.
11. Peredur Rhys - Fortuna Bettialis, age 26, 0 caps
After representing Bettia's Under-21s, Rhys makes what many pundits deem to be his long overdue debut for the senior squad. A good runner and crosser of the ball, his grit and determination makes him a constant threat.
12. Muhammad Taylor - Gabalfa Rovers, age 27, 6 capsAn attacking midfielder who can also fill in at centre-midfield, Taylor is one of his club's main corner takers. He's capable of beating his man and getting in a good cross.



Forwards:

13. Peri Busilanta - Perumnasih, age 31, 70 caps, 45 goals
14. Andi Busilanta - Clube Imperial (Cafundéu), age 31, 71 caps, 38 goals
15. Budi Busilanta - Clube Imperial (Cafundéu), age 31, 70 caps, 38 goals
Unanimously regarded as THE shining lights of Bettian football, the Busilanta brothers are in fact identical triplets. The special, almost psychic bond these brothers share makes them especially dangerous, sometimes tearing defences apart to dramatic effect. It's fair to say they'll be in amoungst the goals again during this tournament - they may be aging a bit, but they haven't lost their magic.
16. Evan Miranda - Akani Sands, age 25, 37 caps, 15 goals
Another in the long line of youngsters who have shot through the ranks, Miranda made his debut at the tender age of 15 during AOCAF 19 where he more than aquitted himself well despite one or two dodgy team performances. Like the other new boys, he's found it it tough to get the break he needs given the dominance of the Busilanta brothers, but when the chances came, he took them emphatically.
17. Don Johnstone - Hyppo Fernley, age 25, 4 caps, 1 goalOne of the leading scoreers in the Apex League, Johnstone has become a feared striker, often popping up from his preferred position just behind the other two strikers to poach a goal here and there, although he also has a fearocious shot on him. However, he became the subject of the transfer coup of the decade when up and coming 2nd Division team Hyppo Fernley snapped him up for a cool 10 million Groats, making him the first player to represent Bettia from outside the top flight.
18. Charlie Higgins - Banastra Forest, age 22, 0 caps
An ever-popular youngster who came close to breaking the club goalscoring record last season. A tricky player who's adept at striking the ball with either foot.

Northern Bettia World Cup 35 Squad

Style Modifier

We don't do defence - we trash defence.

Northern Bettia play in a standard 4-4-2 formation - due to their infamous tactics however, a maximum style modifier (+5) would be most appropriate here.


Roleplaying

If RPing first, the FANB (Football Association of Northern Bettia)
give our opponents permission to RP / godmod pretty much anything they like.

Given our 'unorthodox' tactics, there will be red and yellow cards aplenty.

Northern Bettian fans are notorious hooligans, with their main gang being
called the Yuna Crew. Opposition players, supporters and police can expect trouble.


Nickname: The Fire Ants
First Kit: Amber shirts with a black sash, black shorts
Second Kit: Sky blue shirts with a dark blue sash, dark blue shorts
National Stadium: Sakura Park, Anyuna (capacity 75,000 - approx 35,000 seated)
Although rather basic by modern standards, Sakura Park can still produce a match to remember for fans. Nestled in the eastern suburbs of the capital city, Sakura Park has large banks of terracing at either end with all-seater grandstands lining the two sides.
A few facts about Northern Bettia:
Northern Bettians are well-known for their rowdiness and drunkeness, especially the feared Yuna Crew, a gang of hardcore hooligans who continually aim to make a name for themselves as the hardest firm in the NS-world (usually without much success).
Northern Bettia is environmentally a bit of a mess, with the interim government more concerned with bolstering miltary strength than cleaning up. A number of Northern Bettia's sporting teams are made up of military personnel who play football part-time, as are a few of the Fire Ants squad.
Northern Bettians love football so much that giant screens are now a permanent fixture in many cities and towns.
Some interesting and not-so-interesting facts about Northern Bettia can be found at the Northern Bettia Wiki (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Northern_Bettia)




Manager:
Iwan Obani
A shrewd, calculating character who instilled into his squad a unique tactic of bending the rules at every opportunity, making the Fire Ants as difficult to play against as possible.

Team Tactics:
The Fire Ants employ a rather unique tactic in which they attempt to gain the upper hand by getting as many of their opponents sent off as possible, leading many to accuse the Fire Ants of being a right bunch of bloody cheats. Hacking, diving, feigning injury, all sorts of ref-conning activity - Northern Bettia have quickly turned dirty play into a fine art. This style of play, dubbed System Obani by inept tabloid journalists, has had mixed results in the past - it sometimes works well, but when it backfires, it backfires spectacularly (hence the style modifier).


Goalkeepers:

1. Jon Ozeki - Heart of Anyuna, age 35 - 79 caps
After initial competition for a spot in the first team, Ozeki has more or less made the number one jersey his own, thanks mainly to his tall stature and dominant prescence in the penalty area. An ever-present for the Fire Ants in the last three World Cups.
2. AC Pete Waters - BAF Agetegri, age 18 - 0 capsA young aircraftman from the Bettian Air Force who just happens to be a bit handy in goal, Waters literally wrestled his way into the squad by winning a inter-forces cagefighting tournament to decide the No.2 jersey. Needless to say, he's a bit handy in a fight.


Defence:

3. Sgt. Harry Wakishi - First Battalion FC, age 27 - 10 capsThis battle-hardened sergeant is as big and tough (and as ugly) as they come. With his intimidating size and seemingly permanent bad mood, you wouldn't want to mess with this one.
4. Wing Sgt. Yanni Negima - BAF Agetegri, age 31 - 22 caps
Negima is your typical tough-tackling full-back. His crunching tackles have left many a striker in a crumpled heap on the floor. You have been warned...
5. Cpl. Bobby Maehara - First Battlion FC, age 23 - 11 capsA bright young prospect in the same tough-tackling mould as Yanni Negima, but even more thuggish. Surprisingly enough, he's the only member of the squad with a criminal record, having spent six months doing porridge for GBH.
6. Dan Swanson - Fearless Minini, age 24 - 0 capsA hard-working right-back with incredible stamina, Swanson is also a noted long-distance runner. He may not be quick off the mark, but he'll keep going when others are flagging.
7. PO Mark Shiganu - Minini Shockwaves, age 23 - 0 capsAnother debutant, and the first naval representive to don the black and amber. A consistant, albeit unremarkable defender who'll do a job at this level.
8. Gerry Ibaraki - Heart of Anyuna, age 25 - 0 capsA real old-school barrel-chested defender who is literally a rock in his team's back line. His speed is a bit suspect, but his strength on and off the ball is unsurpassed, as many strikers have found out to their cost.


Midfield:

9. Dan Kyobu - Fortuna Bettialis (Bettia), age 32 - 67 caps, 31 goals (captain)
A midfield dynamo who's quite handy at both setting up goals from the centre or pushing forward and knocking a few goals in for himself, usually from free kicks. Another speciality of his seems to be baiting his opponents into saying or doing something they shouldn't, usually right in front of the match officials. His vast experience as the team's inspirational playmaker has seen him take over the captain's armband.
10. Stu Kaola - Raging Bulls Anyuna, age 20 - 14 caps
The youngest of the Fire Ants squad, and it has to be said he's a bit of a livewire. Once he gets the ball, he puts his abundance of energy to good use by charging up and down the pitch and creating a shedload of goalscoring chances. His practical jokes tend to rub opponents up the wrong way, which will probably serve the Fire Ants controversial system very well indeed.
11. MNE Harry Morioka - age 24, Fire Storm Sharluta - 0 caps
Tough as nails, as you would expect from any Marine, and with tackles to match. The real hard man of the team who's seen plenty of red cards in his career.
12. Brian Suzuki - Takilans Anyuna, age 19 - 0 caps
An exceptional young talent who's equally skilled at feigning injury as he is on the ball, where he's known for his probing runs up the wing.
13. Joseph Ito - Anyuna Supernova, age 25 - 0 capsComing from a super-rich family, many have speculated whether he bribed his way onto the team. However, his undoubted skill together with his influence over referees makes him a valuable member of the squad.
14. Owen Yamada - Fearless Minini, age 20 - 0 capsThe youngest of two brothers in the squad, Owen Yamada is a pacy winger who is equally comfortable on either flank. He does to dive a bit though, but then again that's just part of the system.


Forwards:

15. Ola Hiyashibara - Akani Sands (Bettia), age 31 - 83 caps, 56 goals
An exciting young striker whose skills have earned him a move to the Bettian Apex League. Quick and agile with a deadly right foot, Hiyashibara has already proven himself to be a top-class goalscorer. Hiyashibara was the Fire Ants top scorer in the last three World Cups, and he'll be hard pushed not to repeat that success.
16. Naru Sonata - Fearless Minini, age 24 - 22 caps, 6 goals
A surprise selection in every sense of the word, not least of all being the first woman to represent any Bettian squad in international competition, something that had the religious leaders in the Blessed Realm a bit rattled. Quick, agile and incredibly cute, she's found that she's quite adept at charming the referee into giving decisions her way (although she's no Dazza Dallas - sorry lads!).
17. Sonny Yamada - Fearless Minini, age 23, 0 caps
The eldest of the Yamada brothers who's more at home charging up the centre than on the wings. This lad's got a fair old left boot on him, and the right one isn't too bad neither.
18. Dan Shinobu - Tamako Hawks, age 21 - 5 capsA quietly spoken young striker who prefers to let his feet to the talking, whether it's striking the ball for all it's worth, or kicking lumps out of any opoosing defender who is careless enough to linger on the ball for too long.

AD'IHAN OFFICIAL WORLD CUP 36 ROSTER

Information about Ad'ihan:
Ad'ihan is a small protectorate - 15.4 square km in area - located within city limits of Ad'ihan City Centre (Outer Islands territory of Liverpool England). Ad'ihan is autonomous and self-governing, with its own legislature and laws. It does not have to subscribe to federal Liverpool England law. There is only one stadium in the protectorate, the aptly-named Protectorate Stadium, which has a capacity of 74,000 and is located on the outskirts of the protectorate. The Federal Government in CCL has also offered to host any major matches for the team in Orean.

There is only one way to get into the country, and that is to physically cross the border between Ad'ihan and the greater city area (part of Liverpool England). No airport serves the protectorate directly, Aéroport international d'Ad'ihan, located about 100 km east of the protectorate on the eastern coast of Île Grande, serves the Outer Islands in general.

The only official language of the protectorate is English, although French is commonly spoken as well as it is the main language of the Outer Islands territory. The official currency is the Liverpool England Pound, although there are moves currently in the Ad'ihan Senate to make the Ad'ihan Tazo, pegged at T1=L£1, the official currency of the protectorate.

Ad'ihan is located at a latitude of 15 north and is located within a sea, with land not for a few hundred nautical miles either side. On average it is hit by one to two tropical storms each year.

THE ARCHREGIMANCY'S WORLD CUP 36 SQUAD

Gospodi Pomilui!

By now everyone should know that the Archregimancy is a nation of Orthodox monks - as in Eastern Orthodox Christian (Greek, Russian, Antiochian, etc....) - right?

SQUAD

The Monastic Football Association will use an anonymous starting XI for the second cup in a row (and fourth time overall), a tactic that served the nation well in World Cups 30, 31 & 35. It's hard to scout an anonymous team, after all...

However, sharp-eyed citizens of Ariddia, Bazalonia and Errinundera may recognise three of these anonymous players: native Ariddian Fr. Innocent of Ariddia (forward); native Bazalonian Fr. Barsanuphius the Strong (midfield); and native Errinunderan - and former genderqueer owiavi - Fr. David of the Woods (goal). In an RP context, it is unlikely that nations without some sort of connection to the football of these three listed nations would recognise these players.

Attempting to undermine the MFA's anonymity approach by trying to find out the identity of players is a legitimate, permitted, and indeed encouraged RP approach for other nations. If you do take this approach, please make sure that all monks' first names that you come up with are those of male Orthodox saints. If you're uncertain of what these might be, try the 'feasts and saints' section of the Orthodox Church in America web page (http://www.oca.org/FSIndex.asp?SID=4) (helpfully linked). You can always ask me if you're uncertain.

COACH:

The legendary - and apparently ageless - Juan Tzimisces, star of the Holy Empire's midfield from World Cups 1-4, and coach of the Imperial squad on and off from World Cups 25-34. He's now jumped ship to the Archregimancy for the second cup in a row. His unmonastic temper and gambling habit remain intact, but he otherwise remains a good son of the Church, and as an Orthodox layperson has been asked to attempt to again lead the team into at least the quarterfinals.


STYLE – All Archregimancy teams play an orthodox 4-4-2 (+0)

Kit:
After wearing black for every tournament since the Archregimancy first entered the World Cup in WC24, the new conservative leaders of the MFA have decided that the team should wear something a little more traditionally liturgical:

There is no away kit. After all, who'd be stupid enough to confuse one of their own players with someone wearing that outfit?



Squad Photo:
http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a319/vakraas/33squad.jpg


The team is always accompanied to matches by the Holy Icon of the Mother of God, Bringer of Victory, which shall be paraded before the team before all home and away qualifiers. The Holy Icon looks like:

Tips for footballing visitors to the Archregimancy:

1) Each home match is preceded by the complete Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom. Rest assured that this should only require visiting teams, fans, and officials to stand for a mere 2 hours before kickoff. Consider yourselves lucky we don't use the Liturgy of St. Basil. Away matches, however, are merely preceded with a quick round of hallelujahs.

2) We control the nature of reality in the Dreamed Realm. This isn't used to cheat - all normal rules of football are strenuously followed - but it does have two major side effects:
A) Any injuries to either team in Archregimancy home matches are immediately healed.
B) No violent or riotous behaviour by visiting fans will be tolerated. Any such behaviour will find those responsible immediately transported back to ordinary physical reality.

3) Direct travel from ordinary physical reality to the Dreamed Realm is impossible. Some 72 hours before your away qualifier in the Archregimancy, a team of monks shall arrive in your home stadium and construct a portal to the Dreamed Realm. You may then use this to travel to the Archregimancy at your leisure.

4) A maximum of 10,000 visiting supporters shall be permitted into the Archregimancy for each qualifying match.

5) Women are not usually permitted into the Archregimancy. Exceptions will be made for visiting players and properly accredited officials - largely because we have to - but not for visiting supporters.

6) The Archregimancy was once notorious for its resentful attitude towards being forced to permit atheists, communists, freemasons, assorted heretics and foul excelites into the Archregimancy for home qualifiers. More recently, changes in leadership in the Monastic Football Association meant the MFA made a point of welcoming all of the above in recent World Cups – though largely in the hope that might just possibly be open to conversion through a slightly more conciliatory approach. However, the conservatives have recently re-taken control of the MFA, and intolerance is trendy in the Archregimancy again. Non-Orthodox nations can expect to be denounced. Regularly.

SFF announce squad for WC36

TEAM MANAGEMENT

Rodney Lowe [Age 83]
After seven campaigns as the Sloths' team manager, Lowe is now Chief of the SFF after the death of Harvey Alfredo.

Tony Tarmey [Age 61]
Overtaken by Colin Chester as Schiavonia's all-time top scorer, Tarmey is only Schiavonia's second ever manager, taking over from Lowe after being his assistant after World Cup 31. However, seems inept when it comes to games against top sides on the big stage.

GOALKEEPERS

1. Chris Howard (Kingsbury Monarchs [35] WC 31 (for Socialist Romanistan), WC32-)
The most experienced goalkeeper in Schiavonia, Howard will be looking forward to another busy time in this attack-minded team.

2. Jimmy Fearley (Melston Rovers [32] WC34-)
3. Jim Brenton (Threlo Rovers [30] WC34-)
Schiavonia's two back up keepers. Probably won't get many games in front of the ever-consistent Howard.


DEFENDERS

centre backs (cb)

11. Niall O'Henry (Threlo Rovers [26] WC34-)
Quality player, but is kept out of the side by Cueto due to the latter's overseas experience. A very able replacement, though.

12. Hugh Brain (Melston Rovers [25] WC35-)
Hugh is one of the most inappropriately named players in football, given that he is incredibly stupid.

13. Matthew Tilda (Welkay Lakeside [31] WC33-)
"Waltzing" has gained experience over the last two cups, playing alongside a lot of much older players. Now he takes over the mantle as the experienced one, and looks good enough to do so.

14. Carlos Cueto (Atlético Jutense (Cafundéu) [29] WC34-)
Carlos' move to Cafundéu has brought a new element into his game that gives him more than the average Schiavone centre back has. His partnership with Tilda will be interesting to watch.

left backs (lb)

15. David Jones (Kingsbury Monarchs [30 (captain)] WC34-)
David Jones has burst onto the Schiavone football scene from relative obscurity. An inspirational figure who drives the team on, although a relationship with Isla Blige seems to be putting him off his game slightly. Can also play as midfield distributor.

17. Jim Neil (Charles City [36] WC36-)
Came into the squad as an understudy to Ed Fielding, but never pushed on to the next level. Now back up to new captain Jones.

right backs (rb)

16. Andy Bell (Kingsbury Monarchs [35] WC32-)
The battle for a place at right-back has been a very interesting one for a while, now. Both Bell and Bird have what it takes, but team selection in this position will be on a game by game basis.

18. Winston Fowler (Spacewill Rockets [19] WC36-)
Billy is quick going forward, but possibly suspect defensively, something that will give Bell his opportunity.


MIDFIELDERS

ball winners (mb)

22. Richie Winston (Welkay Lakeside [24] WC35-)
Richie is the type of player who won't give up, and will challenge for a football all dqay long if you let him. Perfect for this role in the team, then.

23. Jan Tomasson (Social Club de Sedgefield [17] WC36-)
Jan is huge. Massive in fact. Uses his size to win the ball, although sometimes uses it a bit too much.

distributors (md)

21. Kenny Sanderson III (Kingsbury Monarchs [18] WC36-)
Son of crazy Kenny Sanderson Jr, the player who left young Kenny to become an Orthodox monk. Kenny III swore to be more like his grandfather, and has shown similarities to him, rather than his father, so far.

24. Johnny Adams (Cartfield Athletic [30] WC34-)
Was behind Moston, now behind Kenny Sanderson III. Poor guy looks like he's never going to get a chance.

creators (mc)

25. Isla Blige (Kingsbury Monarchs [32] WC32-)
Isla is the younger sister of Shiela Blige, and recently voted hottest woman in the world by the Schiavone public. Quite possibly the most naturally gifted player in the world. If you know what we mean...

26. Graham O'Connor (Threlo Rovers [28] WC34-)
The younger cousin of former left-back Mike O'Connor, Graham is still behind Isla Blige. Not that most men would complain about that.


FORWARDS

runners (fr)

35. Jean Leau (Social Club de Sedgefield [16] WC36-)
A quick young thing, with the potential to be an athlete if his football skills don't quite develop. Still pretty handy, even if they don't, but in this environment, they definitely should.

36. Frank Lewis (Kingsbury Rocks [30] WC34-)
A more traditional Schiavone forward runner, Lewis is the quickest player in the SchiavOne league. Offers something different to Shiela Blige.

strengths (fs)

32. Paul Smith (Welkay Lakeside [19] WC36-)
Almost as big as Tomasson, and so should be good for those knock downs for the other strikers. Will arm wrestle anyone (especially Tomasson.)

34. James Hogan (Welkay Lakeside [30] WC34-)
Nicknamed "The Hulk", young James is quite possibly the most powerful strength forward that Schiavonia has ever seen. Standing at over two meters in height and seemingly solid muscle, it will take some stopping this fella. If only he could shoot...

finishers (ff)

31. Jerry Berry (Welkay Lakeside [34] WC32-)
After waiting for so long to see Colin Chester out of the way, Berry got his chance last cup to devastating effect, helping te Sloths to third place. However, is getting on now, and will be used less frequently now.

33. Horatio Konstantopolous (Social Club de Sedgefield [23] WC35-)
Young Horatio has taken Colin Chester's place at club level. Now looking to take his international place, too.


Retiring from the squad are...

Mike O'Connor (LB, Threlo Rovers [36] WC32-35)
Billy Bird (RB, Social Club de Sedgefield [35] WC32-35)
Ben Kerr (MB, Spacewill Rockets [36] WC32-35)
Paul Moston (MD, Charles City [39] WC32-35)
Shiela Blige (FR, Kingsbury Monarchs [37] WC32-35)
Juan Yates (FS, Social Club de Sedgefield [39] WC32-35)

retirements from our third place squad this time around. Two full backs and a ball winner that will easily be replaced, mainly because they were past their best anyway. Paul Moston was a significant player in the middle for the Sloths, spreading the ball about well for years without too much fuss. Shiela Blige was a trailblazer, being the first female player to play for Schiavonia, despite somewhat resembling a pygmy hippo. And Juan Yates was a fat bloke who won't be missed much.

Our first choice line-up is as follows...


1. Howard


16. Bell 13. Tilda 14. Cueto 15. Jones


25. I.Blige 22. Winston 21. Sanderson III


33. Konstantopolous 34. Hogan 36. Lewis


However, there are three alternative formations that are sometimes used. One is the traditional 4-4-2...


1. Howard


16. Bell 13. Tilda 14. Cueto 15. Jones


25. I.Blige 22. Winston 21. Sanderson III 36. Lewis


33. Konstantopolous 34. Hogan


...another, a less traditional variation on the same formation, a 2-4-2-2...


1. Howard


14. Cueto 13. Tilda


16. Bell 22. Winston 23. Tomasson 15. Jones

21. Sanderson III 25. I.Blige


33. Konstantopolous 34. Hogan


...and finally, 3-5-2.


1. Howard


14. Cueto 13. Tilda 11. O'Henry


36. Lewis 25. I.Blige 22. Winston 21. Sanderson III 15. Jones


33. Konstantopolous 34. Hogan



The SFF made themselves some dashing kits for World Cup 31, and we doubt they'll be changing any time soon. Mainly because they've sacked the designers.

A GUIDE TO SCHIAVONE PLAYING POSITIONS

Schiavone football teams generally play in a 4-3-3 formation, but the different positions are not always referred to in normal terms. The Goalkeeper (GK) and centre-backs (CB) are as normal, but the rest are not so clear cut.

The left-back (LB) and right-back (RB) are very important in attacking, and generally one attacks down the wing while the other one comes in and covers as a centre back.

Ball winner (MB) is a midfield position that does exactly what you think. They sit in midfield to protect the defence and win the ball back for the team.

A distributor (MD) is a player with very good passing skills, and can switch play or unlock a defence with one pass, but can keep it simple if the situation requires it.

The creator (MC) is a player who runs at defenders with the ball before either shooting or, more often, laying it off for someone else to have an effort on goal. They are good at attracting defenders and so making space for team mates.

The runner (FR) is a player who can run away from defenders and make chances for themselves with this advantage. Not many slow players can play this role, although Shiela Blige is an example of one.

The strength (FS) is what most people would call the big man up front.

Finally, the finisher (FF) is a player who has an uncanny knack of being in the right place at the right time to stick the ball into the goal with an uncanny regularity.

So there you have it. A guide to the Schiavone style of playing football. Hope that was helpful.

My opponent, if they RP first, can do whatever the hell they like. As long as it is in the Schiavone nature (as shown in the "Who We Are" link in the signature below), and doesn't involve severely harming or stealing one of the major players.
Games in Schiavonia will take place at the King Francesco Stadium, which holds 76,800 people (up from 68,000 circa WC33.)
If you want to interview a Schiavone, feel free. Responses might be a bit slow, though.
Style modifier is +2.

Final note: The Non-RPing N00b, puppet of Schiavonia, is free to RP what the bloody hell you like about it. Inconsistancies in stories are openly encouraged. If you want.

Under the guidance of legendary Elves Security Forces player Zacharius, the Riskbreakers ripped through the NSWC XXXV qualifiers. Armed with a younger, resilient starting 11 and a mix of newcomers and experienced veterans on the bench, the Riskbreakers finished top of their group. However, they suffered a horrible debacle in the Proper, finishing as the worst team in the field. Nonetheless, as always, the desire of Assegai Developments is to continue climbing up the world rankings and establish itself as one of Nation States’s world footballing powers.

The lasane of the ASR

The rejistanian central state lost its authority after the allanean invasion, and while the Asene Sekhika Rejistania still exists, it can not really field a national team but merely a team consisting of players from different nations and nations-in-founding. This has the slight side effect that the team can no longer claim to be the Orange-Blues. The new national flag is no longer the Xke-Li-Ko tricolore but the Hiisa (scales): http://www.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/rejistania.jpg

This of course means the nation can no longer claim to be the Orange-Blues. While they do not have a new nickname yet, their new kits look like this:
http://i17.tinypic.com/4uj9dv8.gif

The flag under the ASR logo is the national flag of the nation the player comes from.

Coach Tahn H~sii-La is the first time in a position with this much
responsability.

Anyone, who RPs before the HURDish weblogs leak the news may do the following: blatantly godmode, employ extreme sillyness, and even do a normal match report. In short: he may do whatever he likes, but funny RPs are encouraged.

The GNUs of HURD:

The GNUs are robots of the Schneier class. They are borderline sentient and 'speak' American Sign Language. None of the individual GNUs has a name except for the goalie, who is links and his substitute, who is lynx. Other HURDists have names if they refer to other GNUs but they seem to change and depend only on the position a robot play on the field. IE: if #4 (mozilla) is substituted out, his replacement becomes mozilla. All names of the GNUs are those of web browsers:

Goalie: links (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Links_(web_browser))/lynx (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser))

A few facts about Aurendia:
1. Aurendians drink heavily. Any day, any time, any occasion, Aurendians are drinking. When combined with the national love of sports, expect crowds at stadiums and sports bars to be excessively loud and boisterous.
2. The people, and by extension the government, are very eco-friendly. Don’t even think of littering. Penalties can include fines, imprisonment, and judgmental stares from complete strangers. While not illegal (at the moment), driving instead of taking mass transit to the stadium will attract icy stares and obscenities.
3. There will be streakers. This activity will mostly be limited to halftime, as no one wants to interrupt the match, but games will be swamped with large numbers of birthday-suit clad fans. Security will make no attempt to stop them, as there are no laws against streaking, but the start of the second half is usually sufficient to make streaking fans return to their seats.
4. Visiting fans may wonder if any of the locals actually have jobs. They do, but nearly every other week includes a national holiday, which when combined with the mandatory six weeks of vacation, and a lax attitude towards taking days off makes it seem that no one ever goes to work. What this all means is that on game days the offices will be empty while the sports bars will be packed.

Special Notes about Ulzaixds:

They aren't human or from earth. In other words they are aliens. And strange ones at that. A full Ulzaxid is made up of five different organisms morphed together. The five component parts are organisms similiar to a monkey, dolphin with gills, an eagle, a ferret and a slime mold. In full on form they are very large, fast, strong and dangerous. With claws and wings for flight. Fortunately they won't be using such full morphs during the competition. But rather smaller versions. All morphs contain at least the slime which can secrete an enzyme which allows them to morph together. They can morph with any organism, so if they are under attack at home matches will do so in self-defense. And considering they could kick the crap out of people anyways, I'd recommend against starting trouble in Ulzaxid. Ulzaxid stadiums are specially constructed to have special seating areas for each of the base organisms as well as morphs. So there are eagles sitting on poles above the field, a special pool area for dolphins and so on. The slime molds are telepathic so the coach and team don't make any noise during matches. At away matches the spectators will also be completely silent. At home matches the base forms of eagle, ferret, monkey and dolphin will make noise.

Clearly such a species won't be defecting to other countries. If you are interested in having a player of fan morph together with an Ulzaxid that might be possible. TG me. Other than that no one will be coming to Ulzaxid as a defectee. All Ulzaxids can brain share so they can all speak English or any other language as necessary. So anyone is availabe for interviews.

For Collonie who accidentally ceased today. They'll be back tomorrow.

"Wait tell me what are you about to do?"

"Well considering the success Milchama had with sacrificing rubber animals like chickens and the like I decided that our best chance for success was to have a team full of rubber animals"

"Ummmm... what?!"

"You heard me rubber animals"

"Is Clyde Misterson still on the team"

FAWA Announces Sorkh-o-siahe Squad For World Cup 36

World Cups Occur Every Two Years In Western Afghan Time

Manager:

Khuhekhezal MUHAMMAD
Muhammad has spent nearly five years now as a manager in top-level football. This is a shockingly short span, when compared to other national team coaches. He was a popular striker at the extremely successful Herat club Nine Columns, until he retired, and four years later, joined the coaching staff at Ghavvasa FC (another Herat club) as a strikers coach. He directed Ghavvasa for three seasons, and the club improved every year, until he was called up for national team responsibility. He is not known as a remarkable strategist or as the brains of any particular operation, but he is sharp, outspoken, hot-tempered, and charismatic. He has been a fan favorite for his whole life, and that has kept his job secure. However, after a dismal collapse in World Cup 35 qualifying and an equally terrible Cup of Harmony, gaps are appearing in his community of supporters. Any continued non-success will probably cost him his job.

Keepers:

1. Ali MUHAMMAD (Ghavvasa FC (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present
A young and inexperienced player, he has special ability, but he continues to suffer with nerves. He has been handed the starting job, however, as the aging Fahifa has continued to see his career go down the toilet at Clube Comercial.

12. Khilen FAHIFA (Clube Comercial (Cafundeu))
World Cup 35-Present

20. Chakhawi LEVAHIV (Pesarast Xanto (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance

Defenders:

3. Sherer INU (Nine Columns (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present
A clever right back whose speed tends to catch opponents unawares. His offensive ability is remarkable, but it has been repeatedly suggested that he be moved to midfielder, because his defensive skills are suspect.

5. Zalakh RUBURIRIN (Nine Stars (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present
The captain of a very sharp Nine Stars club side, he is a bruising centre back who tends to make up for any lapses on the part of other players. Though many have tried to pull him away from Stars, he is a loyal devotee and a remarkable asset.

7. Qishuhuje ZUNEH (Ghavvasa (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present
Like Inu, a speedy offensive winger (though Zuneh takes up residence on the left). However, the introduction of defensive nitpicker Charlie Ibrington as Ghavvasa manager caused Zuneh's tackling ability to take an upward spike.

10. Amir FINIZ (Pesarast Xanto (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance
After the departure of Rushenaqud to Columns, someone had to fill the void in the back four at Pesarast. Lo and behold, someone did, in the form of youthful but brauny centre back Amir Finiz. His leadership at the back led Pesarast to a title.

18. Shabun RUSHENAQUD (Nine Columns (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present

19. Ufum EWANZA (Pesarast Xanto (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance

21. Benih ZIHAFIKH (Mardom Yek (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance

22. Xaran MUSTAFA (Andkhoy Jadid (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance

Midfielders:

2. Muhammad ZULED MUHAMMAD (Ranca Todo (Cafundeu))
World Cup 35-Present
A right mid with sensational leadership ability, a monstrous work ethic and a hat full of tricks, Zuled Muhammad plays for Cafundeu side Ranca Todo. He his known for his witty sense of humour and his winning grin; he makes an absolutely superb captain.

6. Buzezuha QIKHESHIJUL (Pesarast Xanto (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance
This playmaker's appearance on the national team has been long overdue. He wears the number eighty four for Pesarast (and this is the club's traditional MVP number). Though he can rattle a keeper's nerves, he is most known for his great defending.

9. Sohrab NUKHADUFIL (Nine Columns (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present
After Zuled Muhammad and Rushufi left for Cafundeu, the responsibility for Nine Columns' offensive production fell on the shoulders of this talented centre mid. Though Columns slipped, his numbers improved, and he will create opportunities for the national team.

11. Iji MUHAMMAD (Ghavvasa (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present
Lighting-quick, he can be prone to injury, but he has also scored some of the national team's most spectacular goals from his position of left mid. When Iqu Afi missed lengthy parts of last year out with injuries, Muhammad became Ghavvasa's top scorer.

13. Shenelukhur QESHELU (Nine Stars (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present

14. FARID (Boavista da Zinda Jan (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance

17. Ali QER (Sagaye (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present

23. Amir ENA (Nine Columns (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present

Forwards:

4. Assef RUSHUFI (A.F.F. (Cafundeu))
World Cup 35-Present
Generally regarded as the best West Afghan player on the planet, Rushufi lives to score goals. He is a massive, 188-cm target that his teammates love and his markers fear. Rushufi is without a doubt the most likely player on the squad to net a goal.

7. Qizizad YABROUK (Pesarast Xanto (Western Afghanistan))
First National Team Appearance
Young, big, and fast, Yabrouk has all the tools to become the next great West Afghan striker. His runaway APL scoring title of last year was the crowning achievement of Pesarast Xanto's title run, as the club usually is very defense-oriented.

15. Iqu AFI (Ghavvasa (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present

16. Muhammad IZI MUHAMMAD (Nine Columns (Western Afghanistan))
World Cup 35-Present

Home Kit: http://www.freewebs.com/abduldukhirahiq/National%20Team%20Home.bmp

Away Kit: http://www.freewebs.com/abduldukhirahiq/National%20Team%20Away.bmp

Stadium: The Q'an Coliseum
A 70,000 seat arena with a large glass roof that covers every seat in the park, but leaves the field open-air (think of Amsterdam Arena in RL). The Q'an is in the North Quarter of Herat, the capital of Western Afghanistan, and hosts the home matches for both Nine Columns Athletic and Nine Stars Athletic. Visitors can expect friendly but unusual home fans, who are notoriously known for wrapping themselves in toilet paper (so as to look like mummies) and singing eerie battle hymns about the 'Sorkh-o-siahe', Persian for 'red and black' and the national team's nickname.

Players with bios are starters. Western Afghanistan play in a 4-4-2 and with a +3 style modifier. RP permissions are literally anything you want, except for killing.

World Cup Roster; New Faces

By Michio Hibbert, Illustrations by David Reyes

Sakaino, Kiryu-shi
____Bruce Lewis once again has full control over the roster and training of the entire national team, and over the two years since the last World Cup, he has maintained a steady hand over the development of his players. With several roster changes, the strategy for Lewis’s team still be familiar to his previous teams. The center three defenders, the core of the entire team, will be accountable for keeping the opponents off the scoreboard, as well as soaking up attacks down the middle. The attack will most often launch down the sides, utilizing the wing midfielders as well as the side full backs in order to get the ball in front of the net for the single forward to try and score.

____The Kiryu Football Alliance has decided, once again, to go with the plain black and uniforms that have grown incredibly popular within Kiryu-shi for the national team. Although they had been experimenting with some more creative designs, they have decided to keep the traditional uniforms for another year.

____Although Sakaino University’s stadium only holds around 21 thousand fans, the pristine condition and the intimate feel of the stadium were enough for the KFA to keep international football held there. The local winery businesses were very happy for the visiters to the pleasant South Western area of Kiryu-shi, and they are looking forward to another World Cup to boost their revenues a bit.

---------------------------------------------------------------

The projected starters a:
GK
Jon Crow (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/crow.jpg)-#1-6’3”-26 years old
The eccentric goalkeeper of Kiryu-shi is known for his whacky hair and spindly, flexible body. He has great instinct as a keeper, but still has difficulty with proper positioning. He is growing into a very dependable and athletic keeper, but his lapses in concentration still prevent him from being the top-class goalie that Kiryu-shi would like to see protecting their net. However, he is a great asset.

DF
Matthew Pruet (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/pruett.jpg)-#3-5’11”-31 years old
One of the most solid defenders on the team, he takes charge of the defensive line from the center-back position. Pruet aggressively clears loose balls inside the penalty area and has a strong and accurate kick. He has never been a fast player, and as he is getting older, he is losing a step or two. However, as long as he plays in position, which he normally does, he should still be a very effective part of the team. He is still co-captain and is a valuable leader for many of the players.

Bob Moya (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/goya.jpg)-#5-6’2”-28 years old
A terrific one on one defender, he is often used to neutralize star attackers. He is never caught out of position and is very technically sound. However, he is not a tremendously gifted athlete, lacking speed, durability and a strong kick. He is prone to injury, although he often plays through the pain. He stayed healthy during international play his first time around, and hopefully he’ll be able to again. Although there were concerns that his durability issues would lead to his body breaking down as he gets older, he is still playing well for the national team.

Doug LeBlanc (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/leblanc.jpg)-#2-5’8”-27 years old
What he lacks in knowledge and quick thinking he makes up for in speed and pure athletic ability. He plays especially well with Pruet guiding his actions. He is still one of the fastest player for Kiryu-shi and has a strong, if not that accurate, kick. He is very loud and passionate, and will be involved in a lot of physical play, accumulating cards but also drawing fouls from the opposing side. His attacking skills are decent, and scored a couple of goals for Kiryu-shi during their tournaments. However, especially when he is not playing with Pruet, he will be caught out of position and will suffer many mental lapses resulting in opposing chances.

Isaac Levi (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/levi.jpg)-#7-5’10”-23 years old
The starter on Kiryu-shi’s squad, his ability to move the ball up the sidelines is key in the team’s wing-oriented strategy. He showed impressive ability in intercepting passes and ball-handling., as well as impressive growth passing the ball and maturing as a player. He has become one of the most exciting players to watch because of his dribbling and penetrating abilities. He still appears to hold something back in certain situations, and does not commit fully to attack as much as he should. Lacks scoring and shooting ability. He is one of the faster sprinters on the team. He also has extremely good distance and accuracy on his throws, and will take most of the throws from his side.

Sidney Hendrickson (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/hendrickson.jpg)-#12-5’11-26 years old
Originally an attacking midfielder, his talents stealing the ball made it obvious to move him to the defensive line, where he is one of the key parts of Kiryu-shi’s team. He is fast and very effective on the outside, and is never hurt. He has a scoring touch, and is effective as an offensive weapon dashing into the box from the wing. Can beat certain defenders one on one with his quick feet. He lacks a strong kick and plays balls in the air very poorly. Plays up and down the field, and is well-conditioned. He can be a very effective part of Kiryu-shi’s offence, but sometimes gets lost playing too defensively.

MF
Gregory Iverson (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/iverson.jpg)-#15-6’4”-22 years old
A steady starter last time around in the defensive midfield, he is a favorite of the coach due to his meticulous preparation and imposing size, and is also quickly become a favorite with the fans for the same reasons. Although he is not especially skilled in any one area, and is probably the slowest starting player, his size and strength are intimidating in the middle of the field. He can pass and receive passes well, and has a hard kick. Will take long shots once in a while. Is effective on corner kicks, using his height and strength to get good positioning. He is very respected by his teammates, and has been predicted by some that with maturity, might be able to develop into the eventual captain of the national team. He has the ability to score from long distance, and has the head to know when to use that ability.

Pat Mayberry (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/mayberry.jpg)-#8-5’11”-29 years old
The most well-known player on Kiryu-shi’s national team, is unquestionably the best all-around player from his right side half-back position. He can dominate matches at times, using his speed and awareness to create opportunities to score for his team. He holds his own defensively. His accurate and strong passes from the wing can create goals. He can beat defenders one on one with his quick feet. He is not that big, and can be out-muscled at times. When he is really focused, he seems to be able to take the ball up the side, penetrate into the penalty area and score at will in league matches. He never takes set pieces. He is co-captain of the national team, and is the primary point-getter.

Giancario Diamanti (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/diamanti.jpg)-#20-5’11-23 years old
He showed some of the most growth during the tournaments last time around, finally showing some of the promise that had made him into a child prodigy in Kiryu-shi. He has yet to develop the explosiveness and awareness that Mayberry possesses, although he is technically very sound, and will rarely make an outright mistake. He has the ability to create opportunities when the defense strays from guarding him, but he isn’t anywhere close to Mayberry in the goal creating department. He needs to be more aggressive on the pitch. He rarely takes the ball away from opponents, but can stall them. He is now a solid starter for the national team.

Hellen Gandy (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/gandy.jpg)-#9-5’6”-27 years old
Led the team in assists with her ability to dictate the pace of the attack from her central position. Has very precise and accurate kicks, both passing and shooting. Will take all free kicks within scoring distance for Kiryu-shi, as well as penalty kicks. Despite her size, she has the ability to score on crosses and corners, judging balls in the air very well. She does not have the best speed or ability to dribble past players, but uses positioning and passes to set up goal scoring opportunities. Is a liability defensively, and will rarely help to try to win back the ball. She has been plagued by a few injuries, but goes into qualifying very healthy.

FW
Garret McGee (http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j163/otnekstem/Kiryu-shi/mcgee.jpg)-#11-6’2”-30 years old-The only forward starting for the national team, is known throughout the nation for his acrobatic jumping ability. He plays his position very solidly, and shows the ability to see the whole pitch very well. Has an accurate strike, and has the attacking, shoot-first mentality to make great use of it. Mayberry loves to find him in front of the net. His lack of stamina is his greatest fault, and he is regularly replaced by the exciting forward Emily Boyle, whose slashing and dashing style provides a very effective contrast to McGee’s brutal strength.
