DIVISION 2 GAMES

Newton Heath and Englehart Storm are both teams in the relegation zone, with 23 (NH) and 21 (ES) points. The fact that both teams are playing each other this week, means that at least 2 points will be divided among these teams, and with that, there might be a good chance that one of both teams would escape relegation. Of course both Robert and Derek were already out of grudges and boost because the relegation battle has been going on for quite a while now. Nonetheless, both teams went all the way to try and secure their stay in div 2 for at least 1 more year. It was the home team who had the best of it. NH was better in NSL, in EMP, and also in chances, and that led to a 7-5 victory. Not a big difference, but enough for 3 very, very important points. For Derek and ES: better luck in div 3 next year! For Robert: fingers crossed, and wait what OC, DV and DS have done……

England U21 against Adirondak Renegades means the number last on the table against the nr. 1 and new Champion. Martin and Don had nothing left to play for, and have both already been preparing for another division. This game was of no importance anymore, but it still showed what the nr. 1 team is expected to do against the nr. last: win big.

SAEFL Season 12 WEEK 25

After we just saw NH win their game, plus the 3 points that go with it, we have another match between 2 teams who could be in relegation daneger. OC has 23 points (just like NH had before this week), and OC has 26. So, apart from the fact what DV will do, it was still possible that DS would be caught by both NH and OC. If OC wins this game, all 3 teams have 26 points, and the rank on the table would have to be decided on goal difference. NH has a goal difference of –58 now. OC has –6 (so if they win, OC is quite safe), while DS has –53. Keith played the usual CP, while Tim chose WH, and that was no surprise either. It was OC who were the better team. Actually, I think that a great deal of that was because of the 2 players that were injured in the DS team. Nonetheless, when you look at the EMP and the EMP that DS missed on the injuries, OC would still have the best team although the difference would have been a lot smaller. And with that, the score as well. Now, the result in the end was 5-0. Which means that the DS goal difference drops to……-58! Which is exactly the same as NH! When you look at the number of goals scored, we have 72 (for) – 130 (against) DS, and 117- 175 for NH. In that case, the goal difference would be in favour of NH. Let’s wait and see what DV have done!

SAEFL Season 12 WEEK 25

After losing last weeks clash against LU, which was a battle for direct promotion, Point of Napier still had chances on reaching second position, but in fact that was only in theory. Kelly apparently acknowledged that, and decided to rest a lot of her good players, so they would be fit for the playoffs. The boost that she saved, just in case this match still could have been decisive, would make up a little for the loss of EMP. However, this weeks opponent was not just any opponent, but the strong Excelsior Warren, who also already qualified for the playoffs. The strong LB that Simon played was too strong for a PN without their best players, and although it was not a huge difference, the win for EW in the end (6-7) was no more than fair. We will see both these teams back in the playoffs.

Well, here’s the answer to the big question what DV have done: they won! Otto saved a grudge for this very, very, very important match, and that made that Deo Volente was so strong that it didn’t even matter anymore that Brian also played a grudge for Fanatics United. Sure, I have to point that FU missed out on some EMP due to that red card, but it did not make enough difference to change anything about the result: DV win their game and with that they continue their stay in div 2! The 138.87 EMP is impressive by the way, Otto will be pleased with that too.

SAEFL Season 12 WEEK 25

Defrosted Tunafish and Lisbon United are 2 of the teams that have been playing in the top of the table for almost the entire season. For both teams, the race for the title is over, but for LU, promotion was still at stake in this last match of the season. The chances were good for Nuno and LU, as they were 3 points ahead of PN so if ever, they could only lose it on goal difference, and that was in their favour as well. Oh heck, we have already seen PN lose their game, so it is for real now: LU win the runner up spot, and with that, they win promotion back to div 1. On the other side: Claudio wasn’t giving anything away here. As a matter of fact, Nuno may be happy that he’d aready won enough points before this match, as this match left LU empty-handed, and proves that DT is a strong team that seems more than ready for the playoffs.
