Despite snowing a few days ago, the Samurai 7’s first day was hosted in toasty weather. Couldn't have been any better!
We saw a handful of returning teams like Shenzen International, French Krauts, Swiss Kickers, FM FC, but also a fresh collection of new faces. Teams from Australia, Thai, Singapore, Bali, Hong Kong and many more were represented, with a total of over 20 teams signed up.
Clash and Brunello, two teams situated at the bottom of the table, faced off at YCAC. This was an important battle, one that could determine the relegation. Clash at 4 pts, Brunello at 3 pts, a win here would put them over each other and over take Sagarmatha in the process. The victor would essentially be able to escape the relegation zone for now.
The apts.jp featured team goes to King George FC after their preformance against Jetro FC. Kicking off in the early afternoon, basking in the warm sun, playing on the soft newly turfed field of YC&AC, the conditions were too good to not enjoy.
Has the league gotten more competitive?
The stats this weekend would suggest so!
6 of the 12 games fixed this weekend resulted in an unsatisfying draw. Zion and Fussa, 1-1. Dutch and Suns, 1-1. Jetro and Albion Old Boys, 2-2. Brunello and Sagarmatha, 1-1. Pumas and Hibernian, 2-2. King George and Lions, 4-4.
This weeks featured team goes to Kilimanjaro, the African team that has roots to Tanzania.
Last weekend they suffered a tough loss against Lions down at a very wet and muddy Oomiya Kenpo, this weekend they played down at Komaba against King George FC.
