Shark Cup - FINAL
El Capo 0-1 July Fourth
July Fourth win 8th Cup
Well folks... We did it again... We won the Cup back from the very good team that took it from us in QF's last season, Both teams worked really hard, But it was July Fourth's organisation and team decision that maybe made the difference, We had our only remaining 9* player Benayoun suspended because I subbed him in and got a yellow card, kind of a silly mistake. So we had a decision to make and we opted for Fuad Martin to take on Benayoun's role and he didn't disappoint after he found the only goal of the game in the 16th minute of the first half with a well struck effort from distance, July Fourth had been knocking on the door and El Capo had a couple of chances blocked, There was a opportunity for us to make it 2-0 with Kusama getting through and blasting it over, Regal was always alert to the dangerous 8* and 9* attacking players that El Capo had and everytime he won and cleared the ball during the match, El Capo did come close when Nikolov had a free kick saved by Beech and the corner was headed away by Regal yet again. Even towards the end of the game players like Petersen, Papaleo and Miku all had to do some defending and Miku had an opportunity to scpre for us at around 75 minutes but Piovi won the tackle before Miku could get an attempt on goal. Eventually the clock run down and time ran out for El Capo and Fuad Martin became the hero as we held on to win by a single goal.
The "Original" Fuad Martin maybe retiring at BvB this weekend sadly, But the July Fourth version of the same player has created a little piece of history and legacy at the club this evening!!! Thanks Fuad!!!
