BOYS IN GREEN HAND THE BLACKS A NOTORIOUS LOSS!

| Who Scored that Winner??? |
The playoffs in soccer are a thing of beauty.
If you give Germany a best of seven against another team, chances are that they will win every single time. That's the power of being one of the greatest Soccer powers the world has ever known.
But if you put everything into a high stakes 'winner takes all' single elimination match, well, then it's anyone's game.
This is what happened against the current season winners Lokomotive.
They have four guys in the top ten of scoring.
They have a seasoned and veteran Keeper.
They had the confidence and morale.
And yet, when the final whistle went, they were packing up for the golf courses.
What went wrong?
Let's not ask that question.
Wrong line of thinking.
What went right for Green?
Captain Jason deserves a lot of credit on this one.
He adjusted his lines and kept things tight.
He gave a rousing speech after the score was 1 nil.
Trevor, the Dynamo Keeper, was outstanding.
There's little doubt in anyone's mind why he won both trophies:
- Man of Matches
- Honourable Mention
Figure as well, this Dynamo team was without their top five scorers.
This led to each man stepping up.
And boy did they.
Erik, the Green's rookie Defender and recipient of 'Most Improved Player' was phenomenal.
Brian and Devon worked as a team, killing the defence on numerous plays.
In the end, the game could have gone either way.
And this time, it went that way.
