In
the next game we had Bialoazzuri FC who performed
well against tough opposition in the shape of
The A Team. FC Shark had started slowly but
recovered from 2-0 down to win their opening
game 3-2.
FC
Shark were making their 4th eurfootballfives.com
appearance. It all began at the 2015 Barcelona
Fives. They began with a 3-3 draw against Spain's
FC Prospe before defeats to Freshers FC (4-0),
the eventual champions Club Esportiu Llefia
(3-2) and finished with a 1-1 draw against FC
Atwood. They qualified for the Trophy and defeated
Carazur 3-2 in the Quarter-Finals. They exited
at the Semi-Final stage following a 3-0 defeat
to Equipo De Cristhian.
Their
second appearance was at the 2016 Riga Tournament.
They drew a tough group that produced the Cup,
Plate and Trophy champions but they were holding
their own after 3 games with 2 draws and 1 defeat.
The group campaign finished with 2 defeats (to
the eventual Cup winners and a Cup Semi-Finalist)
and so the Trophy awaited them in the knock-out
phase. Their sister club FC Maroon accounted
for them at this stage with a 4-1 win.
Then
came that victorious 2017 Mallorca Fives campaign
that we mentioned in the write up of Round 1.
FC Shark were looking to make it 2 wins out
of 2 but they were unable to penetrate the Bialoazzuri
FC defence.
The
Polish team were equally finding it tough to
break down the backline of FC Shark. It meant
we ended up with a rare 0-0 draw on the day.
Honours even.
