Morrow Crushers make Playoffs!

With a 4-7 record, Morrow has made it into the playoffs of the Ainorpispan tournament. Morrow will face Iskara Daii in the playoffs. Quite a turn around from the rather dissapointing performance of the Litvosk Avengers.

Iskara Daii Become Champions!
Starblaydi Champs beat off Vilitan Cup Winners

It took Extra Time to decide the winner, but Starblaydi Champions Iskara Daii defeated the Yeaddin Owls by three goals to two.

Belmorian stiker Andrew Winters scored the first, as per usual, as he received a low cross from Rejistantian Tuade Lue on the right. Winters thumped the ball home with his right foot, giving the Daii the lead after around half-an-hour. The Owls then equalised and took the lead before half-time as the Daii lost their concentration, particularly in defence, letting in one soft goal and a second wonder-goal from the Vilitan team.

Iskara Daii came out for the second half with renewed vigour, with a Ceri Salisbury free-kick evading the goalkeeper's hands and drawing the Starblaydis level with most of the second half to go. Fortunately, the Daii defence held out past the ninety minutes and into injury time, will the full time score 2-2.

Extra Time beckoned and, after that, penalties. The dreaded spot-kicks were no needed, however, as Rejistanian Tuade Lue, not content with making one goal, scored the winner. Here we switch to our Starblaydi commentator, Sven Motsonsson.

"Carter, moving through the centre circle. Left, to Thanh Madray. Back to Willis, the Nova Britannican, still down the left.

"Willis still has it, a one-two with Madray. Now he's swung it right, oh a lovely pass, Lue, racing into the box, with a shot... and a Goal! Tuade Lue with the Winner!

"He brought the ball down on his chest, in acres of space, the Owls were nowhere near him. He darted into the penalty area and fired a beautiful shot across the face of goal, knocking the ball in off the inside of the post. Iskara Daii and Starblaydia go mad, as the Daii add an international Trophy to their cabinet.

The final Score, Iskara Daii Three, Yeaddin Owls Two."
