Gunners Reclaim First Place; MCQ Finales Next
Capital District 10 : 5 Gateway United S.C. Canada 5 : 4 Union S.C. Alamo City 8 : 2 Gold Coast |
Before all that! The last Majors Cup Qualifiers start tomorrow with both the West and East groups in doubt. Gateway United and Capital District will have a very quick turnaround versus each other with the Eastern Group up for grabs. Both a 1-0-0 and it will be winner take all to advance into the Majors Cup tournament. The other MCQ match is less simple. Alamo City plays Gold Coast in another quick turn around from this weekend. Alamo will need to win or tie to advance, but could also lose and possibly advance if the club holds Gold Coast from scoring too much and itself scores at least 4 points. Gold Coast has it tougher, as the club would need to win and score at least 8 points. Otherwise Union S.C. will win the West and advance to the tournament.

All Three Matches End In Draws
It was an interesting week in the BSL. Let's start with Alamo City vs Union S.C., where the match went back and forth as the substitutes began entering the match for both sides. A Sebastian Giovinco red card allowed Penilla to enter and score 2 goals for Alamo, but a late Tyler Miller yellow allowed Plata to enter to tie the match for the Union to end the match in a 7-7 draw. Meanwhile, S.C. Canada and Capital District also were in a neck and neck fight that went down to the wire, including a David Villa PK to close the scoring and end the match in a 6-6 draw. Finally, Gateway United and Gold Coast put forth another tug of war this weekend to end in a 5-5 draw. All these results help the standings leaders including Gateway United, who clinched a playoff berth.

Saints Take Over First Place
The Saints marched to this weekend's best 8 points and easily defeated S.C. Canada in the process. The result was highlighted by the 4 point performance from Piatti very early into the match and moved Gateway United into first place in the league standings after Alamo City handed Capital District a 2nd straight loss to win the BSL Classic with a 10-8 aggregate scoreline. Alamo City remains in 3rd place, but is now 4 points clear for the last playoff spot with 3 matches to play and is only 2 points out to rise all the way to a potential first place. Union S.C. took the California Cup after defeating Gold Coast FC 7-3 this weekend and a 15-5 total aggregate.
