.
Evolution is visible. Although it seems slow, it is constant.
Due to some mistakes we made, we were out of the qualifiers of WC81.
But we have shaken the dust off our frustrations and returned, stronger than ever, to WC82. And the result was seen where it matters. Inside the field. Again, it was close, very close. That result in Indusse was very unfair, we were superior throughout the 90 minutes, and their goal was a lucky move. But, of course, we can not be discouraged for something too small. It happens because of football. This magnificent sport is full of surprises, happiness and pain in every game... We lost the qualifiers, but this is a minor detail.
As the football proverb would say, "The only ball lost is the one no one fight for." And the National keeps fighting for all of them, without rest. Let's keep dreaming, surely we can make it in the next time!
Keep following us. In the rest of Cup of Harmony. In the upcoming friendlies against New Lusitania and Dritten Asopie. And then, on and on. Because you, the fans, are our biggest strength.
Thanks for everything.

Tilting at the Rumour Mill: Ware to seek Tinhampton job
The sacked Saltsteadish coach may see a swift return to the international scene if she gets her way
Tinhampton — Be prepared for flashbacks, folks: Gay Ware is back at it again!
After leading Saltstead to a miserable World Cup campaign that ended in utter disaster at home against Qusmo, Ware has hinted that she would be perfect to repeat her feat of taking a nation to the World Cup finals for the first time in what may have sounded suspiciously like a piece from The Beet. Or at least she will be perfect to do it once she is off the streets of Cosumar and Mriin and out of her Omerican get-up.
Tinhamptonian manager Rachel Coltfield has officially thrown in the towel with a quite sardonic message: “We’re shit and I know we’re shit. What am I doing pissing away managing a team that I can’t even manage properly?” Tinhampton Football Association press secretary Suzanne Hammond, on announcing the immediate post-Cup of Harmony departure of their manager, mourned the decision as saddening to all save “Chris Richard’s fourteen mates, Assistant Manager Ian Jones, and perhaps Rachel herself”.
A former manager of fan-favourite club Sħip-in-Straxe Footballsclub and winner of a non-zero number of Saltsteadish national championships, Ware was brought on as Saltstead manager in the wake of Jan-Peter Wiėtdal’s unexpected resignation after the quarterfinals of Cup of Harmony 72. Ware got off to a rocky start, falling flat on her face at AOCAF LVI and seeing Saltstead off in the group stage, but was able to pull off one of the most unexpected qualification in recent World Cup history. Having fallen behind the Equestrian States and Garifunya, Ware’s Stallions tailed off at the end of the campaign to finish third, nominally eliminating them from contention.
However, a twist of fate—the disqualification of Garifunya due to their FA’s failure to file necessary paperwork in time—gave Saltstead a second chance in the play-offs, where she led the Stallions to victory over two legs, a feat compounded by the fact that Saltstead had to face Drawkland, who had never failed to qualify for a World Cup prior to that fateful play-off. Ware was not able to replicate Saltstead’s historically skilled group stage performances at the World Cup finals, crashing out after a defeat to the Free Republics, but was able to guide the Stallions to the knockout stage of AOCAF for the first time... only to lose in the round of 16.
Of course, none of that is what we know Ware for. We know her for the rubbish skip that Saltstead’s last World Cup qualifying campaign nosedived into under her watch. Ware was sacked, youth development director Christianė van Åuphen was brought in temporarily and the bleeding has been temporarily stopped. Van Åuphen, who had retained Ware’s squad for the interim, suffered a minor setback in the form of a draw against the Busoga Islands to open proceedings, but was able to skilfully guide Saltstead to wins over Omerica and the Sherpa Empire to secure passage as the only team to remain goalless through the group stage. There is not a snowball’s chance in hell that could have happened under Ware’s watch.
We, for what it is worth, wish Tinhampton all of God’s mercy. Pray that Ware comes nowhere near your shores. ❧

Saltstead continue to blow off steam by pretending all their opponents are Qusmi’y and/or named Gay Ware. Maria Nelissen of Omerica briefly interrupts Saltstead’s pity party, but order is eventually restored, with Ko-oren coming to challenge Saltstead to another Totally Meaningless Friendly. The match will take place at the Gold Field in the Mrii city of Vidial, with full Techniodor coverage available from The Beet Sportsbox.
