Maremoto FC 7 - 9 Mano Verde

This season has been a success and the number two ranking was a good indicator. We had a great performance against all of the teams, except Ben Bridge where we had to surrender to Alto the Ref. We were hoping to keep winning this week, however the game started unexpectedly. Maybe because it was the only game where we had enough subs, so the team wasn't motivated enough..? Long story made short, Mano Verde had six unanswered goals in the first half.

Maremoto wasn't going to go down without a fight. There was a totally different team on the field in the second half. The team had various leaders. Goals came from everywhere as Michael had three, Diego two and Enrique had one. The second half come back witnessed Utku becoming the team's defensive leader resulting with the nick name "the Bear Stangler." Maremoto managed to outscore its opponent in the second half, but all Mano Verde had to do was slow down the game and wait for it to be over. They almost suffered for it, as the clock was stopped a few times. Then Marie finished the game with a beautiful last second goal but the winner was Mano Verde, sadly.
