SPL Cup drama at green city! 05/26/2010
Amigo's and Amiga's, Finally the good weather arrived and with all other leagues finished in the rest of the word all the the eyes are on the SPL ! I had the pleasure of watching the Semi Cup Final Dulwich vs Galacticos and what a "Thriller" it was. MJ must have been proud......! Dulwich started stronger and seems more eager to take a place in the final. For 30 minutes there was no shot on either goal and all the battles were fought over on the midfield. I was about to fall asleep.....Just at the end of the first half Dulwich scored a header from a free kick. Second half it was the opposite Galacticos turned on the "war" button and there was a series of attacks. They had numerous occasions to score but finally Ned found the Net ! 1-1 ! Dulwich could only defend and 8 minutes before time it looked as Galacticos sealed it ! 2-1 ! Dulwich pushed forward and almost got rewarded when a long cross seemed to fly in but a brilliant safe of Santi saved the Queen ! However the following corner landed straight on the head of Chris Balls and the ball flew thru the Net. So it was a penalty shoot out ! This one can straight go into the SPL records books. Both teams missed one but after that every taker scored.......we were at 10-10 !! when the drama unfolded. As all the players took a penalty it was down to the goalies. Poor Santi who had a great game shot over and the Dulwich goalie made no mistakes and shot Dulwich into the SPL final on June 20th ! Flamenkos - ERS 7-4 Old rivals but no cards shown and goals everywhere ! ERS was playing well especially in the first half but a tactical move after the break to call back Danny (after two years absence) as goalie proofed deadly and secured the Flamenkos the third place spot this season. This weekend we have 4 important games and the weather forecast is excellent Sunny and 28 degrees !! So bring your girlfriends to the field and show them your capabilities to score goals and score credits ! 9.30 Super 48 - Flamenkos 11.30 Dulwich - ERS 13.30 Japan-Bulls 15.30 Lions-Hawks For some teams it will be their last game this season others still have to catch up a few games ! Life is good now and we need to enjoy it ! That means ice cold beers after a good game of Football ! Keep 20 June free in your agenda as we have a Fun Tournament plus the end of the season party + price ceremony ! See you all on Sunny Sunday ! Cheers Freek / SPL President on behalf of the Committee ! CommentsLeave a Reply | Result/Standings
