A TOTAL MASSACRE: HP PAVILION GAMING/77 FORGETS HOW TO PLAY FOOTBALL AGAINST FC ARLES-AVIGNON
What we witnessed today was less of a football match and more of a public service announcement on the dangers of showing up to a pitch unprepared. FC Arles-Avignon dismantled HP Pavilion Gaming/77 with clinical, almost surgical precision, ending the game in a humiliating 0-7 rout. While FC Arles-Avignon spent the afternoon treating the goal net like a target practice range—racking up 14 shots on target—the boys from HP Pavilion Gaming/77 seemed to have confused the stadium for a meditation retreat, failing to register a single shot, cadré or otherwise, throughout the entire ninety minutes. ⚽
The misery started early when FC Arles-Avignon found the net in the 13th minute, setting the tone for a long, painful afternoon for the HP Pavilion Gaming/77 defense. By the time the second half rolled around, the floodgates didn't just open; they were ripped off their hinges. Goals rained down in the 51st, 54th, 63rd, 74th, 81st, and 84th minutes. The only thing HP Pavilion Gaming/77 managed to contribute to the game was a collection of four clumsy fouls, proving that when you can't stop the ball, you might as well try to stop the players. It was a masterclass in frustration for the losers and a stroll in the park for the victors.
The only moment of "drama" for FC Arles-Avignon came in the 75th minute when they picked up a yellow card, likely just to prove they were still human and not a collection of goal-scoring robots. Meanwhile, HP Pavilion Gaming/77 ended the match as they began it: aimless, scoreless, and utterly lost. If this were a video game, the referee would have hit the 'quit' button at halftime to save everyone the embarrassment. 🤡
