Sexy FC continue their great form while the Strollers just got one point out of the last three matches. First minute, first chance, first goal: Sexy FCs Joshs 1:0 (1.) right at the start. Fritz just seven minutes later (8.) and another two minutes it was Max (10.) and it was 3:0. Josh then scored his second goal (26.) for the 4:0 halftime lead. Then in the second half the Strollers came back into the match, Xiao Bin 4:1 (52.), but six minutes later Sexys Mirsad for 5:1 (58.). Both players Xiao Bin and Mirsad were later (70.) rightfully send off and the match ended with ten vs. ten. Still both sides managed to score one more time. Guillume for the Strollers (62.) and Derek (77.) for Sexy FC. Overall an impressive Sexy FC! 6:2 victory over archrivals Strollers.
The Vikings beeing in Bali for this and next weekend (good luck guys!), so they can not play. This match shall be scheduled on Thursday, April 19th. Eskil please confirm Monday next week also for the Fortuna 94 make up match on Thursday April 12th. when you are back.
The Japanese won valuable points in the cellar derby over the Irish lads. In the first half it was a quik goal from Akira (5.) for the 0:1, but then Celtics Shi Min (29.) equalized for the 1:1 halftime score. In the second half it was X2 again starting to score and it was Ryohei for the 1:2 (60.). Just six minutes later Celtics answer came promt: Shi Min with his second goal for 2:2 (66.). Then X2s captain Taichi scored the 2:3 winning goal (76.) and since this time it was not answered by the Celtics the score remained after ninety minutes.!
Heavy wind and a heavy for every inch from both sides where at the end noone deserved to loose. In the first half the City FC had the more advantage with the wind and striker Renato along with his teammates missed good chances to score. In the second half Fortuna 94 (who barely was able to make a line up) pushed for the victory and both sides missed really good chances. At the end a fair point share resulted out of this match in which both sides enjoyed this windy Sunday afternoon.
Also the French LE missed four main players!!! in the match against the mighty Afrika Utd. In the first half the French boys fought well and gained a goalless score going into the halftime. In the second half the Afrikans just pressed forward and finally were able to score: 0:1 by Steven (49.), 0:2 by Edson (64.), 0:3 by Wu (84.) and 0:4 by Edger (87.).
