Tomorrow's Stars
It would be Grilled Birds' worst Trophy of Legends stint in four seasons, as they ended up 1572nd of 5244 teams, with a 4-1-3 record. The third loss would be sustained in the seventh round against German V.123 champions BSV-ALLSTARS, who prevailed 4-2 despite maintaining just 40% of the possession. Czech striker Lukáš Josífek, who has recently reached his 150th career goal milestone, would be their hero with a hat-trick, with
Mohd Marzuki Khairul providing the Birds' goals. Spanish goalie Sergio Jiménez Gago did most of the rest.
The final test would be Belgian IV.2 leaguewinners F.C.the williams team, currently on a seven-game competitive winning streak.
Lim An Keng met his match in Swedish Number Eight Axel Pawelski as both squeezed a brace out of less-than-promising circumstances, with
Gandhik Chitre answering Jens Vandamme's first-half strike in the 78th minute for a 3-3 draw.
The Buns were at 728th of 1234 sides on a 2-4-2 run with six goals scored and four conceded, as they tied both of their Heroes of 2014 Trophy matches on this day. Polish V.50 second-placed Nowe_Legio-Legionowo denied
Lee Yau Tong and
Lau Keng Kwang late in the first half, with
Gilberto Sorondo having to prevent 21 year-old Spanish midfielder Pere Antoni Foguet from stealing it in the 67th.
Swedish V.149 club IS GÖTA then took the lead in the 38th minute through Pepe Puig, after a brief own-goal scare from Dutch forward Guy Bleijlevens. Farmer Bunnies appeared to have lost it, but up stepped
Gabriel Priebe to power a free-kick into the wall, with three minutes left. Miraculously, the shot found a gap between two defenders, and Turkish Number One Abidin Asya was left cursing as it went right into the back of his net.
Grilled International fared best in their Heroes of 2017 Trophy run, with five wins and three defeats leaving them in 488th of 2424 clubs.
Phua Li Kong got the 67th minute winner against Spanish V.38 club FC Bunis Revolution, after
Umut Koza equalled Emilio Encina's neat poach from the 14th minute. This came as something of a relief to
Khosrov Danelyan, who missed two penalties in a row against Swiss custodian Claudio Civelli, after the first was ordered to be retaken.
It was then
Redhuan bin Mohd Aleshahfezan's turn to shine against Turkish V.196 contestants Portias, who got two back through Zombor Kovál and then Hakan Dirar.
Stef Vreys and
Remond Bergervoet were also on target for International, however, which had the Brunei side exit the competition on a high note, 4-2.
