In
the next game we had Dynamo Clapham looking
for their first victory and seeing if they could
emulate DHL Prague by bouncing back from opening
game defeat. They were due to face Round 1 winners
#Burst It.
Earlier,
we promised a fuller preview of #Burst It who
were competing in a eurofootballfives.com tournament
for the fourth successive year and making a
fifth appearance (all under different names).
They made their debut in the 2011 Budapest Fives
for captain Jack Croft's stag weekend with 3
teams. The pick of the squads went on to reach
the Plate Final finishing Runners-up to Hungarian
side Al-Kaloida. They returned as Arse-A-Lona
FC in the 2011 Barca Fives where they reached
the Plate Semi-Finals and lost narrowly, 1-0,
to the eventual winners HMS Sultan FC. They
competed in the 2012 Berlin Fives as FC Wein
Schweine Fliegen and finished 3rd in a 6-team
group before a Plate Semi-Final defeat to East
Compton Seagulls. Last time out saw them compete
in the 2013 Algarve Open as Let Us Win or Elsie.
They drew the Group of Death that saw them finish
5th in Group A which featured 3 of the 4 Cup
Semi-Finalists. They reached the Plate Semi-Finals
before a narrow 2-1 defeat to eventual Plate
Winners Water Boy.
The
two teams both appeared in the 2012 Berlin Fives
and they almost met in the Plate Semi-Finals
but Dynamo Clapham (playing as Bayer Never Lose
Em) narrowly lost their Quarter-Final 1-0 to
prevent this outcome.
Today,
in Bratislava, it was first blood to Dynamo
Clapham as Liam Kelly gave his team a first
half-lead. After the break Joe Rees hit back
to equalise for 1-1 and that's how it finished,
1-1.
