Big game again this Sunday, division decider Royal city vs Westside, last time it was 2-1 to royal city at home, its Round 2.It seems that way, looking at their GD that they play defensive formation.
Are you referring to Campo libre?
That's fine, the rest of the group can take the points and use it.
they played royal city and lost 7-3 but they play westside twice in round 2.I guess the point is that they might not just give up the points to everyone. With their strongest lineup they can obviously compete, but the rest of you don't know what to expect from week to week. Maybe they will play their strongest lineup against Royal City, but allow their weaker players to start against Westside in order to "teach and guide them in certain aspects of the game"

AkalI agree with @Canucks4Ever that stats don't matter at games like this. Its going to be decided between who is more determined to win the game. Its going to be the most important game of the season for both teams.
@Canucks4Ever which westside team do you play for premier or Div.3 team?
probably not, sucks that it messes up the game schedules for other teams and if you don't think you can compete at a Div3 level then go to CAT div.With 0 goals scored this season and 3 forfeits in 10 games, one would think GFC Lions are not far behind?
Royal City defeated Westside juniors in round two as well by score of 3-2, America won 5-0.
From what I know, it was an end to end game, both teams were going at it with neither backing down although, Westside had some good moments and better pressure but very good defending by royal city and royal city made their chances count, Westside switched to their 3 CB in 2bd half and 5mids which worked for them. It was pouring rain too.Great result for Royal City, any game report?
Its unfortunate to see teams dropping out in the middle of the season.
I found personally that CAT was more competitive than DIV 3, that may not be the wisest decision if a club finds DIV3 too challenging.probably not, sucks that it messes up the game schedules for other teams and if you don't think you can compete at a Div3 level then go to CAT div.
i would assume that the burnaby selects schedule would go to a BYE week for the 2nd round instead of a forfeit? since the league took their schedule off too
How exactly does a team who is one point out of a first place tie, lose the chance at promotion in December? I get that every game is crucial, but did you get your education in Ethiopia?America 0 - Campo Libre 2
This results pretty much puts America out of the contention for promotion.
This time the team played to defend since last time they outplayed us quite decisively.
We just a conservative and cautious approach. Having said this, America did not create serious threats and our counterattacks were quite dangerous. The first goal game out of a corner kick to the far post.
This goal changed the game as it became quite open. America had to push up and wide to try to create danger. However, they did not manage to circulate the ball well and would lose it in their build ups. This left us with quite a few 1 v 1 with the keeper. One save was particularly good. Eventually, the goal was going to happen. In one counter attack their defender got beaten and when our player was going to kick the ball into the net; he got fouled. A clear penalty.
Our player converted the penalty kick to get a well deserved win.
As usual, America's coach got quite excited and the referee had to talk to him to calm things down.
I do feel bad that we spoiled their promotion as I can see that the couple that runs the team puts a lot of effort into it and this team should be in Division 2.
