Week 4 MOTW time...
Sunday: Tsawwassen Royals versus Port Moody Gunners: Royals are coming off their first win of the season, much to their Mom's adulation, and now face a good test as to how much mettle they've got this season. PM is undefeated, and has seemingly won convicingly for three straight weeks. Tsawassen needs this one badly to keep pace at the top of the table, and a draw would likely suit them nicely all things considered. Anything less than three points will be rubbish for PM and likely be very costly at the end of the season. MOTW?
Sunday: Aldergrove Undivided versus Poco City United: Battle of the undefeated squads in this 'B' table tilt. Poco hasn't allowed a GA, while Alder has only allowed 2, and both have filled the net regularly thus far this season. Could a 4-4 draw be in the offing here? MOTW?
Saturday: Five Corners FC versus GEU Tigers: This match is of particular interest on for a couple of reasons. One, the Tigers are out of the gate strong, somewhat surprisingly, and have only allowed one GA in three matches. Two, FCFC has four points in three matches, but has only allowed one GA for each match played thus far. It is possible that these two squads, fairly equal defensively so far, could produce a closely contested match settled by two goals or less. I'll venture to say there may be only two goals scored period in this match. A draw here would be huge for FCFC, and no doubt a confidence builder for them. MOTW?
Sunday: Port Moody Lions versus North Delta Nationals: Though I may look like a homer for choosing this match, there is objective sound reasoning behind that decision. I understand there is history to speak of between these clubs that goes back some seasons. In addition, after blowing out GEU the Lions have played two close games since, though they have not lost either match and have taken four points from them. That said, the Nationals had a shaky start against Arsenal, but have responded with a tight draw and a blowout of their own since. PM will not want to drop any points here, as they can put the Nationals in their rear view by a good margin early in the campaign with win and retain top spot in the table for another week. MOTW?
Have at it lads, the forum is yours.
