Bonus HBI Shares ++ First Goal Scorer + Correct Score Comp. No 399: Champions League Villareal v Man. United - 23rd November 2021 - 10500 + 10000 Sports Tokens

I'm still reeling after that lost against Spurs. After taking a well-deserved lead in the first-half after totally out-playing them, in the second half, we were lax and lacking in quality.

We had no Raphina through illness and no Rodrigo through injury to add to Bamford and Ayling but we still had enough to win. Phillips was almost playing as a sweeper and had Kane in his pocket throughout.

It wasn't to be however, and it ended 2-1 and the first goal came from Leeds' Dan James.

Let's hope for some better news today as we turn to the Champions League...

@nathen007's Prediction

Michael Carrick is in charge for Man. U tonight as Solskjaer queues up down at the dole office and I seriously can't see them taking anything from this tough Group F draw away from home.

They currently sit top of the group but losing tonight and Atalanta beating Young Boys and they will slip to third with only one game remaining. How sad would that be?

Carrick has a huge list of injuries and illness to contend with, with Pogba, Varane, Shaw, Mount and Cavani all out.

Villareal will be without Gerard Moreno but otherwise, will have a full squad to choose from.

Manchester have not had a win in their last three but Villareal have their own problems in La Liga, sitting in a very poor 12th position but unless Manchester have really managed to get their heads straight after that hammering by Watford, I can't see them coming away with anything tonight.

Prediction: Villareal 2 : 0 Man. U - First Goal scorer: Alacer

Simply write the name of the FIRST GOALSCORER and the CORRECT SCORE as a comment. The competition closes 5 minutes before kick-off which is 17:45 GMT

The Small Print
In the first goalscorer competition, own goals do not count. In the correct score competition, it's the score after 90mins. Extra time and penalties do not count and the pot for each competition will roll over if there is no winner. If more than one person chooses the same first goal scorer or correct score, the prize is shared, and everyone gets a little upvote! It seems I also need to add, one entry per person. Don't forget the new rule that only people with a rep of 50 or above are eligible to enter unless they have been approved. The bonus will be added to any winnings ONLY if Leeds United win and/or Man U lose and all pay-outs will never exceed 50% of post-pay-out. Other bonuses are paid out at my discretion.

And the winners were...

With a new, larger pot, we had just one winner as far as I can see so it's well done to @emeka4 who walks away with the 10K pot! No one got the first goal scorer so the pot rises to 10500tokens.

AS for the HBI shares. @yeckingo1 (for being a loyal Leeds fan!) got one, as did @pthker2010. Well done to you guys!

That's it for another day so it just remains for me to say thanks for playing and send you all my best wishes. Let's hope Man. U get wasted again tonight to cheer me up!

Marching On Together

New manager syndrome might kick in but they'll need to step up after that terrible performance on Saturday.

Ok, I checked with HW and saw your post. No probs, but seriously fella, I just read your most recent football post which is excellent. If you keep writing stuff like that, eventually, you'll do really well on Hive.
Good luck and welcome to the game :-)

I'd have to kind of agree with you simply because Villarreal have been poor this season and ought to be beaten by Man U on a bad day....but I think the squad are not happy Old has been fired so it could be interesting to see their attitude
