Amigo's and Amiga's,

We were lucky with the weather this time as the forecast was for typhoon type of weather on Sunday but the weather God was helping the SPL with a dry Sunday. We had several Very important games to play. You might have seen our new feature on the website with Live Scores / Great idea from our webmaster Frederik and I am sure the scores didn’t disappoint the viewers !

Japan - Pistolera Bulls 5-2 Japan is back in form and now are targeting the 4th place in the SPL and the Pistolera Bulls are struggling as they didn’t win since they had a few weeks off not sure what they did during the break everybody seems to have gained a few kilo's. The Japanese were too skinny and too fast for them !

Flamenkos - Lions 2-4 What a fantastic SPL Championship's game it was. A showcase of SPL Footbal at its best. Just one yellow card and only Fair Play. The first half clearly belonged to the Flamenkos as with Spanish flair they out played the Lions most of the half. A quick goal (a Lion's
gift) destroyed the Lions strategy so a strong half time talk was needed as the only weapon to change the game. Now it was the Flamenkos who gifted a goal when they didn’t clear the ball from a corner. Lions played their best football in the first 15 minutes of the second half and the Flamenkos started to show small cracks in the defense. Fast Lions counters from the right flank resulted in 2 goals and with a 1-3 score it became mission impossible 3 for the Flamenkos. However they kept on fighting and got a goal back with 7 minutes to go.  Seven minutes can be an eternity if you want the game to be over but a long run by Joel ended the game and the Lions could open the Champagne Bottles.
Would like to congratulate both teams for this great performance and I am sure that all the spectators loved it.
I am sure the Flamenkos will overcome the loss and go for the top spot next season as well they are still in the race for the SPL Cup !

Galacticos - Super 48 3-5 While the Lions were drinking at Latina's they were "live" witness of a miracle ! Yes they do exist even in the SPL. Galacticos were comfortably leading 2-0 at half time and they were enjoying the game. However they didn’t realize that this was the last game of the season for Super 48 and they were fighting against the "Loss of Face" at the SPL end of the season Party if they didn’t get any point. Having lost 15 games they had 45 minutes to fight and drop dead and Galacticos should have known better the Japanese Culture.....!  Super was on fire and scored goal after goal they couldn’t believe it themselves but after the final whistle it looked like they were SPL Champions ! After this victory its said that all the sake stocks in Shanghai were cleared in one evening !

This coming Sunday most of our teams will play the last game of the season and it will be fantastic day 30 degrees and clear sky with 4 SPL Games. Football Lovers please come out and enjoy the action. Make sure NO SMOKING on the field only outside in the street ! Teams are still playing for rankings as well the League Top Scorer is at stake.

1000 AM ERS - Galacticos

1200 PM Japan - Lions

1400 PM Pistolera Bulls - Hard Days Night

As we are all very busy people please mark the  19th of June in your I phone or I pad as that will be the End of the Season Tournament and Party ! Lets finish this Super SPL Season in style !

See you all on Sunday ! Enjoy Life and Enjoy the SPL !

Cheers ! Freek SPL President on behalf of the SPL Committee !
