Sporting League: Game 22
Thirteenth placed Pacifica recorded the shock of the day with a one nil win over leaders Universo. Pacifica boss: ‘Well that’s put a bit of daylight between us and the other relegation candidates. There were a lot of big performances out there. I was driving down the Pacifica coast this morning thinking about the game when a brick chip fell off a building site and just missed my car. It was then that I realized it was going to be a special day. We were proper underdogs out there; I mean Universo had gone twenty one games without defeat before today. I think a few of those Sporting radio pundits will be eating the what you say…humble pie? Yeah…that’s what they’re consuming this evening.’
Yop Lane failed to take advantage of the Universo slip up after throwing away a solid lead to lose by three goals to two at home to Tranquilayers.
Novia moved closer to the leaders as they continued their impressive form with a two goals to one away win over Bombaya.
Green Tree came back from two goals down to frustrate fading champions Bayerns in a match that finished two goals a piece. Bayerns boss: ‘We started well out there, but some of the older players legs seemed to buckle around the eightieth minute which let the opposition in. I’m pleased that we are the highest scorers in the league, but that’s all we’ve got to shout about at the minute. Let’s just remember that we are a club in transition. OK?’
