CARDIFF GP- ARMED ROBBERY
Weekend 13-14 of October the Athens Kickers team participated in the Welsh GP.
Saturday 13 we had the individual competition. In open category Argyris Poulidis and Giorgos Aggelinas unlikely didn’t manage to qualify from the group. Aggelos Tsakiris won his group (2 wins). In the barrages he beat D.Pawsey and qualified to the last 32. Then he lost to Valverde 1-2. Jaime Silva scored 4 wins (2 in the group, one more in the barrages and in the last 32 against M.Croatti) qualified to the last 16. Then he lost against K. Bennett who later reached the final.
In the veterans Marcos Kapsabelis (in his first appearance in the category) managed 4 wins in his group and another one in the quarter final against Stemitsiotis. So in the semifinal he had to play against JC Granados. Marcos lost 0-1 in a close game.
Sunday 14 we had the team event. Athens Kickers, in their first tournament of the season, had in their group White Star and Issy les Moulineaux. We managed two wins and the results were:
Against White Star 2-1 : Kapsabelis- Jones 1-1, Tsakiris- Cook 4-0, G.Aggelinas- Bradley 0-1 and Silva- Hawkins 1-0.
Against Issy 4-0 : Kapsabelis- Gorgette 3-0, Tsakiris- Donval 3-2, G.Aggelinas- Amberny 2-1 and Silva- Boutrin 3-1
Next step to the way to last eight it was against Stembert B. Another win 2-1 and the results were: Kapsabelis- D.Denooz 1-2, Tsakiris- F.Denooz 5-0, G. Aggelinas- M.Ponthieux 2-0, Silva- Herberqc 2-2.
In last eight our team faced Real Murcia. Our team gave the ultimate fight but a bad call from the referees (a no way penalty kick) in the very last minute of the game gives the qualification to our opponents.
It was Tsakiris- Valverde 0-0, Kapsabelis- Granados 2-2, Silva- Clarke 1-1 and G.Aggelinas- Varney 1-2.(FAKE PENALTY).
So without a single defeat we found ourselves out of the competition instead the semi finals.
This unlucky refereeing is not capable to damage our morale. It makes us even stronger for the future
