The
second Cup Semi-Final was between Return of
the Dancing Horses III and Melee FC. Both teams
had playing in eurofootballfives.com Cup Semi-Finals
before with differing fortunes – Melee FC had
taken victory at the 2013 Barcelona Fives at
this stage 2-0 over Sporting Gingham. Return
of the Dancing Horses III had lost 1-0 to eventual
champions Skidmarks, 1-0 at the 2012 KrakowTrophy.
Return
of the Dancing Horses III had won all six of
their games today and that Cup Semi-Final defeat
was their only defeat in 12 eurofootballfives.com
games. They were going to be a difficult team
to beat and already had a 2-1 win over Melee
FC in today's group phase to give them added
confidence.
This
game took a different path though and Melee
FC produced a spell of football to remember
and Return of the Dancing Horses III experienced
a spell of football they would want to forget.
Melee FC had a golden spell which produced three
quickfire goals and essentially spelt the end
for Return of the Dancing Horses III today.
In
the end the game finished 4-1 to Melee FC with
a double for each of Kevin Lewis and Chris Pilsbury
who moved on to 11 goals and 8 goals for the
tournament respectively.
A
lone Craig Harrison goal for Return of the Dancing
Horses III (his 11 th of the day) offered scant
consolation for his team who were out. The day
was over for the Dancing Horses at the Semi-Final
stage for a second tournament in a row. We are
sure they can go one step further on a different
day and maybe next time?
Melee
FC had a Cup Final to prepare for.
