The
Bernabeu Butchers went into game 8 of the group,
and their third game, looking for their first
points. Masters of the Pooniverse would be no
pushovers though, particularly as they had 6 points
already on the board. Masters of the Pooniverse
were under pressure from Molly's FC for second
place and needed to win this game to make the
Cup and hope Molly's FC failed to beat Lozenetz
City . The first part of the equation was looking
more difficult when games from James Halliday
and Allan Farmer helped Bernabeu Butchers to a
2-1 half time lead. James Whitehead's third of
the day kept the Pooniverse in the hunt and although
he added another in the second period it would
not be enough to earn them points. Tom Rigby and
Tom Gingell goals in the second half earned Bernabeu
Butchers a 4-2 win, 3 points and a commanding
position to make the Plate. Masters of the Pooniverse
would sweat on the result of the Lozenetz City
Vs Molly's FC to see if they had done enough to
make the cup.
