We
would turn our attentions to the top of the
table for the next game. The next fixture would
be Foot 130 versus Abington Stanley. Foot 130
had a 100% win record so far and had scored
9 goals without reply. Their Fives team had
also won both their games so Foot 130 were looking
like the team to beat.
Abington
Stanley had looked good so far. Despite a narrow
1-0 loss in their first game they responded
well with a 4-0 win over Cheesecake FC last
time out. They moved up to third place in the
table but had slipped a place due to El Cholo's
win in the previous fixture. Given the first
two results for Foot 130, Abington Stanley may
well take a draw from this game and look to
progress up the table in their other remaining
fixtures. However, they were gunning for the
win. With the game seemingly heading towards
half-time at 0-0 Abington Stanley were caught
with men forward and Foot 130 hit them on the
break with Maxime Remesy converting for 1-0.
A
close fought second half so no further addition
to the score and the match finished with Foot
130 collecting their third successive win although
this was no doubt the hardest one to date. For
Abington Stanley it was another good performance
but a second narrow loss meant the table did
not necessarily reflect their form.
