Result for the Game of Mar 20, 16 |
Monday 21st March 2016 |
The German All Stars maintained their three point lead at the top of the league after a 2-0 win over Colts with top scorer Aaron Martindale and Remi Depalmas hitting the back of the net for GAS, Wanderers left it until the 75th minute to score the only goal in their game with HKU70s that ensured they maintained their push for the championship, Albion must now beat Wanderers in the next round of league game to give them any realistic chance staying in the title race after they were held 0-0 by a spirited Swiss team who, despite playing some of the game with 10 men almost snatched a winner in the last couple of minutes of the game, with GAS, Wanderers and Albion all playing one another in the final three rounds it could mean that the GAS vs Wanderers game on 24th April is a winners takes all for the division one trophy, Squadron beat USRC 2-0 and Spartans 5-0 victory over Mobsters ensured they leapfrogged both Mobster and HKU70s and out of the relegation places.
French Kiss, already guaranteed of an immediate return to the top flight, beat WYFC06 4-1 to leave them, realistically, of requiring just three more league points to ensure they will go up as division two champions, it looks like a three horse race for the third automatic promotion place after Colloids shaded University 2-1 and Azzurri overcame Antnhill 2-0 and with the ‘Oids, Boca and Azzurri all playing one another in the final three rounds it could go down to the wire and in the other game GGFC and Hearts drew 1-1.
Dynamo, without the talismanic Jon McKinley, suffered a 2-3 reversal against CAPS which leaves them still top of the third division but only by a point after ANP won 3-1 against Goal Visio, the battle for the other two promotion places heated up after third place Grasshoppers were beaten by Green Cypress 2-1, fourth placed Yan Po went down 0-1 to CSOB and White Youth closed the gap after scoring the only goal in their game with HKSS.
Maccabi, notwithstanding a mathematical miracle with goal difference, only require three more points to go up to the third tier as division four champions after second and third placed teams, FOB and Power 22 respectively, shared the points and two goals, OBA leapfrogged Scorpions into the fourth place, and the final promotion place, after edging them by the odd goal in three, Darts beat Hung Art by the same score-line, Rising Sun beat Skyline with the only goal of the game and Bapcoll won 3-2 against Standard Chartered.
With most of the championship, promotion and relegation battles still far from finished it looks like the final league round of the season on 24 April should be an exciting day.
