Honour and Glory, but also Tragedy Starblaydi victory in 3rd-Place match overshadowed
At senior competiton level, Starblaydia have never lost a third-place play-off match. Whether in the World Cup or AOCAF, a Starblaydi loss in the Semis has always equalled a win in their next match. So it proved yesterday as Starblaydia defeated one of the pre-tournament favourites, Pacitalia, by two goals to one, overturning the four-nil loss Starblaydia suffered in the Group Stage.
A much worse loss that will be felt across the nation also took place yesterday evening, as Starblaydi legend Simeone Di Bradini passed away. A full obituary will be published in the Jhanna Chronicle's World Cup Special later today but, sufficed to say, one of the few true legends of the international football scene has passed away.
"We couldn't make the Final," Manager Lex Panarii said, "but in our hearts we were always trying for Simeone. He was a great man, a great player, great inspiration and a great friend. We will miss him dearly."
Lubii, the striker picked by most fans to wear the number 10 - made so famous by Di Bradini himself - in the upcoming World Cup, scored the winning goal against Pacitalia, having been involved in the equaliser by Juan Oscar. Earlier Pacitalia's Manovecchia scored their only goal, which took the lead in the match and pushed Starblaydia into searching for a goal. Lubii has scored over twenty goals in her short career, being just twenty-three years of age, and is not phased too much by the task that may face her.
"Obviously my inspiration as a child was the likes of Dasha Tolkacheva and Jacqueline Maitland," she said, "but when you look back and find out who inspired them, and you go all the way back to one man: Simeone Di Bradini. It's an incredible legacy to be a part of, and I'm really hoping to get the nod as the Number Ten for World Cup 40." |
