So,
who would take their place in the Final from
the second Semi-Final? The two teams set to
do battle were Kavlow against FC Mallard.
Both
teams were on debut and both could be proud
of their group record as they were both unbeaten.
Kavlow had 4 wins and 1 draw, FC Mallard had
3 wins and 2 draws. Kavlow were the second top
scoring team in the group phase (16) whereas
FC Mallard had the second best defence in the
group phase (4).
However,
Kavlow were to make a mockery of that defensive
record as this was a game too far for FC Mallard.
We thought we saw something special last year
at the 2018 Amsterdam Sixes when CIS Committee
(Blr) defeated Ross Kemp FC (Eng) 7-0 in the
Semi-Finals but Kavlow were to set a new record.
Chad Bryce Borthwick set them on their way and
there were further goals from Jeremy Tudorpole
and Fraser Mackenzie. It was 3-0 to Kavlow and
only half-time.
In
the second half the goals continued to flow
with Chad Bryce Borthwick going on to complete
his hat-trick. Jeremy Tudorpole grabbed a second
of the game before Tom Murray made it 7-0. Fraser
Mackenzie then scored his second of the match
to make it 8-0. There was some reprieve for
FC Mallard as Daniel Craik reduced the lead
to 8-1 but there was still time for Kavlow to
have the final say as Oliver Hird made it 9-1.
It was, unsurprisingly, the biggest win of the
day.
We
had to say farewell to Kavlow – this final match
should not take anything away from their efforts
today. A magnificent debut.
