Monday Season Wrap Up

This Monday saw the finale of the first season of Monday Night Football.. 

As with all finales there was a Headline Act, the last Match on the Cards was Armitage Shanks vs We Arbeloa Lot of Teams.

Could Armitage Shanks go the distance unbeaten, could We Arbeloa spoil the party? 

First up, 2 Girls 1 Schlupp vs Green Pete Elite. Most to play for here was bragging rights, as 2 Girls had already clinched second place but Green Pete were looking to climb off of the bottom.  It wasn't to be for Green Pete, try as they might to break through, the defence was too tight.  A couple of breakthrough attacks let to goals conceded.  Final Score 2 Girls 3-0 Green Pete Elite.

Bareley Athletic called to cancel their match and subsequently withdrew from the League, handing La-Lla-Na Land a points Match win.

So onto the Draw Card... Armitage Shanks vs We Arbeloa Lot of Teams.

Both teams were organised and determined to take the points.  The ball was moved around well with communication been the key. It took a while for any chances to be taken, when they were it was We Arbeloa who broke the deadlock.  At the half time break there was still all to play for and both teams took the opportunity for a strategy session.

The second half started slower and more calculated, with both teams completing passes more effectively moving the ball around.  As the clock ticked away Armitage began to push, this however left them exposed at the back and We Arbeloa pounced on the space behind, neatly sloted a second past the Armitage Keeper, putting them beyond being caught. So, We Arbeloa took the win 2-0 and spoiled the Armitage Shanks Party of an unbeaten run.

We are looking forward to the next season starting Monday.n With the addition of three new teams, anything could happen, so, watch this space.........
