Eagles top Div 1 at Christmas - Abingdon Thursday 5 a side

The final round of matches before the Christmas break took place at our Abingdon Thursday 5 a side league last night as all teams took to the pitches ahead of two weeks off for Christmas.

We start our results round up this week in Div 1 for a change where the title race is going down to the wire with just 3 matches left to play. Eagles United are top at Christmas by the narrowest of margins with only goal difference separating them from Jewventus. Last night they gave that goal difference a big boost with a 19-3 win over bottom side Borussia Teeth. Jewventus had a much harder time of it as they battled to a excellent 5-3 win over Milan. Exeter Gently lost ground on the top two as they slumped to a 4-1 reverse to Carlos Puhol while in the other match The Laddington Bears hit 10 against Megs Fit with only the one conceded.

Let's take a look at how the Premier League is shaping up at Christmas, well Nathan Collins are looking odds on for another title as they beat a strong Murder On Zidanes Floor side 5-2 to go 4 points clear at the top of the table. Moving into second spot are Fat Fighters FC who brushed off their narrow defeat to Zidanes last time out to secure a 10-6 win over Narcos. Chicken Tikka Mo Salah move up to third, they had their scoring boots on last night as they beat Xavi Dodgers 11-2. The bottom two met as Mandy's Boys won the basement battle 5-1 against Arselona, both teams heading for Div 1 but will both be looking to bounce back at the first time of asking.

Thank you to all the players, captains and the refs Warren, Dean and Alan. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all. Let's hope 2021 is a hell of a lot better than 2020 for everyone!
