We were down to the final four teams in our Trophy competition and first up was Nothigam Pressa versus Sporting Abeergut…..at least it would have been if Nothigam Pressa were still present. It later turned out that because they finished bottom of their group they thought their day's activities were over and didn't realize they had the Trophy to play in. Sporting Abeergut therefore benefitted with a bye to the Trophy Final.

That meant we quickly turned our attentions to FC Dad versus Los Langeros. These two teams finished fifth in their respective groups each returning 4 points (1 win, 1 draw, 3 defeats) and with very similar goal differences 5-11 for Los Langeros and 6-12 for FC Dad. If you were a betting man looking at the form you'd struggle to pick a winner…..

If the two teams looked evenly matched on paper, they looked equally matched on the pitch. Half-time came and went with the two teams still tied at 0-0. We were to witness a decisive outcome in the second period as first of all Calum Jones and secondly James Roden fired FC Dad into the Trophy Final.

It was farewell to Los Langeros and we thank them for making the effort to attend the 2012 Valencia Fives. It was a pleasure to meet the debut players and to see again those who attended our Barcelona tournament. Until next time…..adios.
