It was another good week of play with lots of goals. In the first game between Napoli and Maidstone Market, a total of 10 goals were scored but it was found out that one of the players that started was under age and could not play. A forfeit by Napoli. All team managers have to read the rules. With Maidstone winning, they are in the lead in the standings and it is looking like, Maidstone Market, Suchos United and Napoli will end up one, two and three in the standing.
The game between Liga de Gulag and FC Tuxpan was a good one with FC Tuxpan winning to move into 4th place with just four games left in the regular season.
Tortorella Pools played Suchos United and were leading at the half by a score of 2-1 but during the second half, it looked like their defense was playing offense which gave Suchos United many chances to score and they did. In the end, Suchos United won by a score of 8 to 2.
Given the standing of the three bottom teams, Tortorella Pools is still in the playoff picture. Depending on the way the three bottom teams play since they still play each other, one might need only nine points to finish in fourth place which is not a difficult road for Tortorella Pools.
This season we had a total of 34 new players out of a total of 99 players. That is a large turnover.
In the golden boot competition, Eric Armijos of Suchos United with 11 goals is leading and might be able to score at least 20 goals this season.
