DIVISION 3 GAMES

Trav Spoodle are leading div 3, and with only 4 matches left to play, the race for the title is getting more serious every week. Which means that you cannot afford to take any match lightly, not even if you are the nr. 1 on the table, and play a home game against the number last, Melchester Rovers. In this particular case, that meant that even although TS used this weeks match to rest some important players, they played a boost to make up for the loss in NSL. Which turned out to be a wise decision, because it turned out that MR had saved a grudge for this match! Because of the boost that TS played, but also because of the early red card for MF star, and the fact that TS played with a NSL 10 goalie and MR didn’t, it was TS who won the match after all: 23-13. A fair result given all circumstances, and since TS in fact are thinking and acting like a champion (never underestimate any match if you want to win the title), I doubt it if any team can stop them from winning the league.

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 22

Speedsters are the nr. 3 on the table. They are 3 points behind TS (who just won their match), but since TS’ goal difference is so much better (+40, compared to SS, before this week): with only 4 matches left to play, SS actually need to make up 4 points in order to catch TS. This week, they play against African Selects, the nr. 8 team. AS are 6 points behind the nr. 6 (AV), and that means that they can be a dangerous team: they need to win their match in order to keep their last chance on playing the playoffs. That was exactly why Colin played his grudge this week. It was smart thinking from AS, but no matter how smart your tactics are, if bad luck is with you, you cannot outsmart that. Just look at what happened to poor AS: already in the 12th minute, their CF had to leave the field with a red card, which cost them 10.39 EMP (do the math!). Even in spite of that, they were about 6.50 EMP better. Which meant that AS were awarded 1 smother shot, against none for SS. However, they were unfortunate, and missed that shot. But that wasn’t the end of their bad luck in this game, no way! They also witnessed that SS were awarded a penalty, and when WH Trulli kept his nerve and scored, it meant that SS won the match and 3 very important points, and left AS empty handed. The loss means that AS are out of the race for the playoffs, and SS stay in the pursuit of TS, only this time they are 3 points and +49 goals behind!

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 22

Blue Storm and Adelaide Kickers are the nrs. 9 and 10 on the table. Looks like a close call you’d say, but in fact there was a 9 point gap between them, and with that it has already been decided that BS can’t escape the relegation zone anymore (as far as you can call it that way in div 3, for the last 3 positions on the table), while AK is still in the race for the playoffs (although they are 7 points behind, so they need a miriacle to make that race more than just “in theory”). AK did everything right here: they played a grudge in order to make sure this match will be won (and stay in the race). That grudge, plus the red card for AS Djourou already in the 6th minute, made that AK was a lot better, and the 4-0 victory in the end was no more than a logic result. The 3 points mean that AK climb the table, because they catch up with at least AS.

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 22

England U-21 is the nr. 2 on the table, only 2 points behind TS. That may very well look like a title candidate, but the truth is –in my opinion- that midseason aging hasn’t been very kind to EU. They aren’t as good as they were in the first half of the season. This match is just another example: Aros VSK is the number 6 on the table. EU is 7 points ahead and play at home, but AV manages to win this game without too much trouble, and they didn’t even have to play a boost or grudge in order to do that. Fair victory and 3 points for AV, and that means that EU drop from 2nd to 3rd or 4th position (SS climb the table, and FA can do that as well as they win, while AV can be almost sure of the playoffs.

SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 22

Englehart Storm and Dead Scientists are 2 teams in the race for the playoffs. ES in 7th position, and DS on 5th, only separated by 6 points. So this match was very important: ES needed a victory in order to keep their playoff aspirations alive, while DS needed a victory to create a 9 point gap with ES, and with that (after we have seen AS lose their match as well), make sure to make it to the playoffs. It was DS who played a grudge, where ES didn’t, and with that, there was no question about the winner of the game. Without a grudge, DS would already have been the better team, but now the difference was even bigger. Which turned out to be a good thing, as in spite of the 11 EMP surplus, that generated 7 chances, DS apparently had some scoring troubles. They managed to score no more than 2 of them. In spite of that bad scoring rate, the 3 points and the victory of course were fair, and with that, DS know that even if they won’t make it to the cup final (which is not that likely after the first leg of the semi final), they can at least extend this season by reaching the playoffs.

TEAM PENALIZED

 
SAEFL Season 13 WEEK 22

This was an important match for FA, they have been jumping up and down the table all season, from first to mid table, they are currently in 4th place 4 points off the top spot, this have to be one of the closest battles for the div 3 title ever with 4 teams within 3 points so a win for FA is vital !, they came up against AV who have struggled this season for any form, so this should have been an easy win for FA, but Nik and his FA team got lucky only 2 shots at goal and a Penalty from no where. The VA GK K. Sinouh had a really bad day to put it mildly and cost VA any points, FA move up to 3rd spot but are really going to need to hope for some results to go there way
