African Union 2-0 1

In a match that could have gone either way we found a way to prevail. We made our chances count and David made a glorious run down the flank, he found Toti who touched it back to him and David buried his chance past the keeper. Toti who came off the bench had a wicked chip past the keeper to end the match and David assisted.

Semi Finals

Nigeria 2-2 Both sides were very competitive however Nigeria was the better side in this match and if is was not for the goalkeeping of Steve Weiss we would have easily lost this match. Steve made save after save in the final 20 minutes as we did not have an answer for them. We scored first with Tiko taking on the defenders and sliding Ryan a ball in the middle 6 and he calmly placed it past the keeper.Nigeria got one back with pressure and persistence. The match ended 1-1 we went to extra time and Nigeria scored in the first minute to all but crush our hopes. However Juele an unlikely hero scored from a fre kick right outside the box to send our sideline in a frenzy. 2-2 we go to spot kicks. Just as Juele was to take the first kick the lights go out. To be continued Saturday at Fairland regional park #5 3:30

Lost 5-4 in spot kicks

Losing the 3rd place match is all that needs to be said. Vince did shake and bake his way in the box to get fouled and he finished the spot kick. We lost 3-1!
