It
was back to the on-pitch action in Game #8 of
Group B as LMH FC met KPN Digital. Both teams
had chastening mornings so far. As a yardstick
for performance, both teams had played Magnum.
KPN Digital lost 7-0, LMH FC fared a little
better and lost 6-1.
On
their most recent performance at our events,
LMH FC performed at the 2017 Vilnius Tournament.
They were very steady in the group phase with
a series of draws 0-0, 0-0 and 1-1 versus The
A Team (Fra), Wealdstone Raiders (Eng) and FC
United of Bob (Eng). They finished the group
phase off in style with a 4-1 win over VSG United
(Ltu). Third place saw them qualify for the
Plate Quarter-Finals where they recorded a 2-2
draw with Red Cow Belgrade before winning 3-2
on pens. It was another draw in the Semi-Final,
1-1 with Shahs of Sunset. There was more penalty
success as they reached the final. They then
picked up their first eurofootballfives trophy
with a 1-0 win over 3 Lions FC. Was there to
be more success in Amsterdam?
It
looked like it could be a struggle as they were
to slip to a second successive defeat. They
were level at the break here (1-1) with KPN
Digital as Wouter Koeleman and Rex Worth goals
cancelled each other out.
In
the second half KPN Digital forged ahead with
Wouter Koeleman making it 2-1. Bilal Taouil
grabbed the third which meant no way back for
LMH FC.
