“An epic battle between speed vs muscle, in what promises to be one of many encounters!
The first half started with a great surge up the left hand side by the Vermin but it halted just as they were about to score as their Rat Ogre distracted the team by getting knocked over by an orc Blitzer. The slow but powerful orc got the time they needed and hammered their opponants up against the sideline. While the rest of the team just managed not get pushed into the crowd, their ballholder was not so lucky. While stormvermin Xeroffi survived the onslaught by his own supporters, the crowd threw the ball more or less into the hands of Mosh the Unstoppable. The orc blitzer was taken by total surprise hovever and sprained himself so badly that he wouldt return for the rest of the game, a turn of events that would prove pivotal later in the game.
With their back to the wall (of fans) WWW was unable to capitilize hoever and had to watch in agony as the orc ran it home for a TD, knocking out half the remaining rats in the progress. **0-1** The microscopic chance to equlize in the end of the first was twarted when the pumped up orcs blitzed. In the lockerroom of the skavens the unconsious tammates recovered howerer and with the skaven word for "defence" thundering from the stands, the team returned with a new found fiercaity.
The orcs unability to move was now exposed as a well placed kick left half their team to defend the ball, while the WWW swarmed in from every direction. Finally is was Storm Vermin Xeroffi who came thundering in, knocking the ball free. Even though thrower Legogo failed to pick up the ball, the orcs never managed to regain the initative and in an joint effort, the gutterrunners scramled to the ball and team MVP Lapep scooped up the ball, dodged the tackle of the last defender and ran for the equlizer. **1-1**.
On their next kickoff kicker Kolutoo placed the ball beutifully in the lefthand corner, separating the orc ofencive line from the ball. Even though linesman Sativ was badly hurt the skaven yet again swarmed down the left hand side and rat ogre Snodwiw finally dominated the line knocking out a blackorc. The orc thrower Bonko Bunnyfingers succumbed to the pressure as the well placed rookie gutterrunner Psyke picked the ball of for an interception! Yet another defensive TD for WWW **2-1**.
There was a lot left of the game though... On their next posession the overconfident skavens left the orc blitzer Roue Chamboo all alone behind their lines and an orc throer found a hole big as a house in the center. A perfect pass later the lead was history. **2-2** Time for the skaven offece to produce their magic! And with a dazzling display of speed they swept up the right hand side, with a single opponant able to stand in their way. Then the unfatamable happened. Overpowered the orc managed to defy the odds and hold his grund and instead of sure victory the WWW had to settle for a draw...
All and all a great comeback though and the fans showed their apriciation with a standing ovation that simply wouldnt end and we leave the game with great anticipation for what is to come! ”
