With a huge amount of Fed Points up for grabs for these competitions, and with no penalties for AI, it is a great chance for some of the lesser FA’s to catch up with the most active ones. The CFA and DFA seem to be running away with the lead as they did last season, but with four of these competitions over the course of the season, there is plenty for the less active to play for.
This was highlighted in the Marco Van Basten Legend Cup, with an OFA side up against a team from the VFA in the Final, and with no DFA side in the last four, AC Rangers have helped the CFA close the gap on the leaders.
Superb striker Andrew Allen was the player of the tournament, scoring 5 goals in 4 games, but his side Borrussia Urteeth were knocked out in the Quarter Finals by Dave Peirson‘s Maisy MooMoo FC after a 3-1 penalty shootout defeat.
One of the favorites for the competition, the Bosnian Brawlers also gave a poor showing, going out in the Second Round to EFA’s TMNT FC 2-1. Even more surprising than that was the First Round elimination of one of DFA’s finest FC 360, going out 2-1 on penalties to level 10 side Cripp FC. The match ended 0-0 after 90 minutes.
So the Final was contested by Maisy MooMoo FC and Brewers Athletic. In a relatively even game it was Athletic that drew first blood, with Stevan Jovetic scoring just after the half time break. Then in the 63rd minute, a cool finish from Brazilian striker Taison put the game beyond MooMoo’s reach and sent the trophy home with Brewers and their travelling fans.
The winning goal...
Fed Points awarded:
Winners = 50 Fed Points - Brewers Athletic (OFA)
Runners Up = 30 Fed Points - Maisy MooMoo FC (VFA)
Losing Semi Finalists = 10 Fed Points - AC Rangers (CFA)
- LivingLegendsFC (EFA)
