GATEWAY UTD 3 ST. LOUIS 2

The Saints managed to end the season on a high note, but came up short in Majors Cup qualifying as well. Donovan and Mwanga built Gateway United a 2-0 lead before the Cure tied it up with scores from Espindola and Morales. Jeff Cunningham scored the game winner for the Saints. The Cure have lost 3 in a row and failed to break any league records for MOV, APG, WINS, or POINTS in a full season.

GOLD COAST 2 CAPITAL DISTRICT 0

For a while it looked as if the Suns would be going to the playoffs. With this game wrapped up at 2-0 at the conclusion of Saturday, the game between Montgomery/Burud Town was tied. The result would have given Gold Coast third place. That score did not hold and the Suns will have to settle with a Majors Cup spot. Meanwhile, the Gunners finished off the season very quiet and will have to begin offseason preparations.
