AFC Phoenix
Division 4p, Xpert International
Manager: Gphoenix
Injury rocks GP's season...
An early injury to defensive colossus Lorenzo Bomba derailed what many had seen as a potential game of the weekend. The forced substitution saw Gareth Phoenix have to introduce 17 year old Eystien Frehiem. A switch that proved to play into the hands of the talented Zacgold in front of their own fans as they ran out 3-1 winners...

Phoenix:

"It's a huge blow and a long one it seems. I can't say anything apart from Eystien did really well under the circumstances. The lad's 17 and we pay at the pinnacle of Xpert Eleven against the best teams around, so expecting him to come in like that and perform is ridiculous.

"We'll take it on the chin and we've bounced back with a nice win in the cup to a tricky team in front of their own fans. Now we need to keep plugging away and next we're thankfully back in front of our fans for what seems like a big time against another strong team."

One game at a time...
