DIVISION 1 GAMES

The match between Adirondak Renegades and Point of Napier is a clash between 2 teams playing their first season in the top league. Both teams can be found on the bottom half of the table, but where PN is in the relegation zone and should start to look out not to get too deep into troubles, AR is a solid midtable team. In fact, a victory could even bring them to the top half of the table. So, Don played the usual strong ONE (over 100 NSL) in order to achieve that, where Kelly played the usual WP in order to avoid that AR victory. However, it was not just the home advantage that made that Kelly’s efforts were not enough to stop AR. AR was simply better, and the 21-6 victory was a fair reflection of the 28 EMP difference. With that, AR strengthen their safe position. They are no title contenders at all, with all respect. – Although I don’t think Don will mind me saying so. But I guess that, even before midseason aging, it’s already safe to say that AR will remain in div 1 this season. And that is something that Kelly and PN can only dream of, at the current time. But the good thing is that she still has plenty of matches to turn things around.

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 13

The Boelewieten against NoShaKi WC’98 is a match between what I expected to be (at the beginning of the season that is) a title candidate (TB) vs. a relegation candidate (NW). Well, the TB part appears to be right, as they are the nr. 2, but I was wrong about NW till now. Credits for that to Vince, of course. Nonetheless, in this match TB still is the better team. Even the red card for striker Go in already the 9th minute could not prevent that the TB Powerhouse team was too good for NW. The 102 NSL CP was just too good for the NW defense, and the 1-0 after 90 minutes may not be a big victory, but that victory is well deserved, and with that TB stay very much in the race for the title, while NW lose their place to AR, who just won their match.

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 13

Two teams that I would not have expected to be in the relegation zone, are Catbel Athletic and Lisbon United. Sure, I know out of first hand experience that CA is rebuilding, and that the points will be won after midseason aging, as they will be very strong there. Nonetheless, in spite of rebuilding (which could also be an excuse for LU of course) both CA (Ivo) and LU (Nuno) should not be in the danger zone. However, the fact is that they are, and another fact is that only one of them can win this week. Since they are rivals now, it may be no surprise that at least one of them (in this case LU) played a grudge, as the best way to escape the relegation zone is not just winning, but beating a fellow relegation candidate! Too bad for Nuno, as the grudge made that LU indeed turned out to be just a little better in EMP, in spite of the home advantage that CA had. But this match is a perfect example of how important a GK is! That little EMP difference in LU’s favour was not enough to make up for the GK difference: where CA put a NSL 10 goalie on the pitch, LU fielded “only” NSL 9, so the fact that after 90 minutes the score was 15-9 for CA, was not even that surprising. CA win 3 important points, where LU are still waiting for their first victory. I can understand that Nuno will get worried now…..

Tottenford Heats and Alcohol Anonymous are 2 top teams, and both teams are known for their strong defense. A lot of matches between TH and AA have ended in 0-0 or 1-0. And this appeared to be just one of those matches. However, the fact that TH was on postion nr. 9, just 1 point ahead of the relegation zone, made that Mark wanted to put just a little more effort in trying to win this match, and so he played a boost. That, plus the red card for the AA goalie, made that only 1 team deserved to win this match, and that was, indeed, TH. They were awarded 2 chances, and managed to score one of them, and with that, the victory for TH was there. Nathan won’t mind I guess, as AA will have more focus on the cup this season, so it seems. Right?

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 13

FC Inferno against Druss Legends is this weeks top match, as we have the numbers 3 (FI) and 1 (DL) fighting each other, DL is 6 points ahead after 9 matches, so if Marco wanted to at least stay in the race, FI could not afford to lose of course, as a 9 point gap would be quite big already. And of course, Martijn knew that too…..but in spite of the importance, no grudges were played. I think both Marco and Martijn know that the prizes will really be divided at the end of the season, and that a boost would be sufficient enough for now. And well, for FI it was. FI were very unlucky to see 2 players leave the pitch with a red card, but the team that they played plus that boost on top of that, were so strong that in the end it still turned out to be just enough to beat DL: 2-0. Who knows what would have been possible for DL if Martijn had not picked this match to rest his strong WP team? Nonetheless, it’s not something you can feel sorry about, as you can never predict these things, and now at least Martijn knows his squad will be fully rested next week. FI stay in 3d position, but DL drop 1 place, and see TB rise to the 1st position as the new leader of the table.

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 13

Although Jazz Greats is the reigning champion, they are the nr. 8 on the table. Nonetheless, Terry picked this match for InterQuartile Rangers to rest his players. You got to rest them sometimes anyway, and an away game against Barts team would be a good opportunity. On the other hand….in spite of the fact that they are the number 5 on the table, and already 11 points behind the leader, Bart knows that IQ do not have just a good team, but also a good manager in Terry. That made that Bart decided to rest players too. And with both teams resting players, we could see that the IQ B-squad was better than the JG B-squad, and they won 0-2. Bart will be frustrated I guess (yeah, come and make those easy jokes), as if he ever could have won a match without much effort, it would have been this match! Terry on the other hand, is the luckiest guy in div 1 this week, putting no more than 85 NSL on the pitch, and still winning an away game that can be considered difficult. Well, if Bart goes for it, that is. And a quite a number of IQ-rivals will still have to face that. Now, this loss for JG, after we have already seen CA win their match, means that JG drop into the relegation zone. Bart can’t probably wait for midseason aging, when his whole squad is expected to get a lot better.
