Late victory keeps promotion hopes alive


The senior side claimed an important 2-1 victory on Sunday despite a terrible performance. Cantonments somehow went into the halftime break with a 1-0 lead despite a string of excellent saves from our goalkeeper, and a generally lacklustre performance. The second half saw little improvement, and following a simple chance being missed by our striker the opponents broke away and scored an equaliser.

With fifteen minutes to go we switched to a 4-3-3 formation and made a substitute, the substitute netted soon after coming on to grab Cantonments an undeserved victory.

This has left the league table perfectly balanced with one game to play.

LA Utd 33
Cantonments 32
Mighty River 32
Mandela 31
Future 31

The top team goes up and the 2nd goes into a playoff against a team from another region. We are ahead of Mighty River on head to head, the league is not done on goal difference as teams would buy games in the last weekend of the season to push up their goal difference.
