SR comes out of Bracket B. I don't think any of the other three teams are close to SR if SR is "on." FCD Premier beats Partain to get the privilege of losing to SR.
The final is back and forth. Either team can win. Momentum shifts galore. Finally, DT Gall wins on a goal by ... a defender coming up to support the attack!
BTW, I don't know that the standings at the end of the year are going to be any different as far as teams than the top 8 as of now. The lower-ranked teams are going to be beating each other -- I just don't see one of those teams catching fire to get into the top 8/10. And I know I shouldn't let one loss affect my opinion too much (after all, with 10-11 year old boys, anything can happen on a given Saturday), but that Titans loss really hurts. LP Callaghan had a nice win over FCD Waters, although I am not a fan of the clutching and grabbing style they now play -- but they might jump up and displace Sporting United or FWFC.
Qtrs Bracket A
DTS comes out of Bracket A. Bazan vs DTS will be a hard fought game. right now the way DTS has been playing i would have to say the win would go to DTS.
DT Gall would win pretty easily over FWFC. FWFC best player would be marked by a match up zone IMHO.
Semis - Bracket A
DT Gall vs DTS would be a thriller of a match. It all depends on if the DTS coach decided to put one of their BFS kids on DT Gall main threat to stop him from scoring. IF they did that and could control the damage the rest of the team made. I believe DTS would win this game.
Qtrs - Bracket B
SR comes out of Bracket B.
SR vs Sporting United. This game is going to be can SR still play their style of play against a physical team like sporting united.
FCD Premier vs Solar Partain
I see a low scoring game that will have a lot of possession and shots on goal. Solar has a great goalie but he cant stop all the shots that he would see from this team.
Semis - Bracket B
SR vs FCD Premier
If SR is not physically beating down to play this game. I would say they win in a close hard fought match. Both teams play the style of possession very well. It would come down to who could get their man scoring threat the most chances to finish. SR would win.
Finals
DTS vs SR
My prediction this game would be all about opposing their will on each other. SR likes to knock it around until they get what they want. DTS likes to attack with a lot of 1 v 1 from the midfield to create opportunities for outside mids and forwards.
My prediction would be DTS would win with a late goal from a corner kick that was headed in as time expires. DTS 2 SR 1
