The champions of division 2 came down to the final fixture of the season. 18:30 at Shibuya Sports Center, a clash between the highest scoring team of division 2 (Sala FC) and the least conceded team (British Embassy FC). An exciting fixture that brought out TML fans to the stands (benches to be precise) despite being unassociated with either team.
Despite having the championship on the line, the match was far from defensive and stale. Sala stormed into a 2-0 lead...
This week, we have Shane FC winning the Robert Walters Team of the Week!

The morning started with 57 BFA kids plus teams from 3 International...

Firstly Happy New Year to you all. Time for another fascinating report. If you are one of my avid fans then you are aware even though I run the tournament I actually end up watching very little of the matches. Why I hear you ask?
