After last Sunday’s stunning games we are in for a break first the Qinming festival and next week the Easter Holiday . This is the time that teams can lick their wounds from the tough games during the winter. The games were hard but fair and the playing conditions were not easy with chilling wind and several down pours on our heads and we might have lost some hairs along the way. Two weeks break means that the teams can fix up their legs, change their strategy, go on survival camps, or just relax in preparation of the final three months of our league !
Last Sunday we had three exciting games :
E-Rouge – Dulwich 4-4 First half it was 2-2 both teams were fighting hard for the win. Second half was more of the same, the French were technical more skilled but Dulwich didn’t want to give up. The French scored an easy goal after the break but a cross annex shot fm Cesar went straight into the top corner 3-3. Dulwich gave away a free kick and poor marking resulted in 4-3. Five minutes before the end the hard work of Dulwich was paid off by an awarded penalty.
Japan – Vlis 3-0 Belgium were happy with their new goalie as he saved them a lot of goals, bit short of players for this games Vlis considered the result as a good improvement and Japan was happy with the three points an are eyeing the second spot in the SPL.
Hawks – Galacticos 4-1 Could only catch the last part of the game, but noticed at least 30 chinese bookmakers watching the game, betting was active and there was a police car standbye as well. The game was interesting to watch as Galacticos really tried to go for the win and had ample of opportunities but failed to finish. Hawks were not playing their best especially the second half. A penalty awarded to Marcus caused a lot of commotion as in the eyes of the Galacticos players he dived but according to the Hawks he escaped the tackle in order not to break his leg. So for five minutes the tension was hot but once the game was over everybody shaked hands which is what we as SPL stands for.
19th of April we start again with two games only :
12.00 PM Japan – Bulls
14.00 PM E-Rouge- Galacticos
Lets predict the weather 25 degrees and a blue sky !!
Enjoy the break and see you all soon ! Cheers Freek SPL President / on behalf of the SPL Committee
