The
game that would complete Round 5 was Fiorentina
Turner 2 versus Gintam. Fiorentina Turner 2 were
joint second at the start of this round of fixtures
and needed another win to keep pace with their
main rivals at the summit of the table. With 3
wins in a row they would be confident.
However,
although Gintam were down in sixth place they
had just earned a draw with the league leaders.
In fact, 2 draws in their last 3 games had thwarted
their rise up the table. Gintam were unbeaten
in 3 games with 5 points from a possible 9.
The
league position belied Gintam's ability and we
witnessed a really entertaining and close game.
It was the higher placed team, Fiorentina Turner
2, who took the lead though. Tom Farrer continued
his good run of goal-scoring form to put the English
team 1-0 up. Carlos Sagarra's third of the tournament
meant that Gintam were level again at 1-1.
Arnau
Andres had scored three goals for Gintam today
and he was to find the net again. Sadly for him
it was at the wrong end as Fiorentina Turner 2
regained the lead. Tom Farrer was on target again
as he increased the lead to 3-1.
Gintam
were back in it at 3-2 when Arnau Andres atoned
for his earlier own goal by scoring his fourth
at the correct end. The sands of time ran out
on Gintam though as Fiorentina Turner 2 recorded
their fourth win in a row.
