The second match of the day for The Orks, and the second victory.
The Orks had little time to recover from their previous match which manifested as lazy blocking and lack of concentration at first, giving the shadeless ones room to maneuver at the beginning of the match. A lucky strike did give the green elite a chance to steal the ball and go for goal, but a similar fluke of nature saw the ball back in possession of the Freshmen and relentlessly they rolled downfield towards The Orks' endzone scoring with minutes left on the clock. During this time The Orks had slowly but steadily thinned out the ranks of the palefaced paladins. And when The Orks weren't up for the task the Freshmens vampires fed their thirst of the crimson nectar by feasting on their thralls. The halftime whistle blew as the match was 1-0 for the Freshmen.
For the start of the second half The Orks fielded eleven players to face off against eight players of the Freshmen. Slowly but steadily The Orks rolled on down the pitch and mutilated even more Freshmen players, scoring the equalizer with minutes on the clock. The Freshmen recovered a few more players for the final attempt to score the winning touchdown and rushed a quick attack on the right flank, only to have the designated ball carrier fumble the pick up after everyone else had already run up the field. This was a chance which The Orks seized, hording the ball with three players desperately rushing around it. When the Freshmen realized that the ball was compromised, they immediately started rushing back to hinder the scoring attempt of The Orks. But with skill, grit, violence, determination and quite a bit of luck The Orks had one last go for glory with players opening up an alley for a bliter to pick up the ball and run to hand it over to another blitzer who rushed to the endzone with just seconds on the clock making it 1-2 for The Orks.
The following final kick-off didn't leave enough time for the Freshmen to try to equalize the game so they concentrated on violence trying to get revenge on The Orks for maiming so many of their teammates, but to no avail.
When the referee blew the final whistle The Orks had secured their second win of the day.
In an interview with a sports reporter from The New Orc Times Galnast Goug'Zom had this to say about todays games and his teammates: "Sometimes is hard to be orc. All hate orcs. Orcs play poor and no 'urt opponents. Today good day to be orc. Orcs beat many opponents. Orcs get gloo-ree. Even if some coward take ball and run from fight."
Saitani, thank you for a great match. I think this was one of my most favorite ones I've played in NUL. Good luck to you in the future.
