Golden has finished top of their series and achieved promotion to advance towards the VII series. 12 wins - 0 draws - 2 loses, was enough to remain top of the series and advance to the next challenge. Although, series finishes with a bitter taste, as Sealandia made Golden's transpire in their stadium and stamped a clear 4-1 defeat. What could have been Golden's best match of the season almost turned into an ugly ending of the season as they finished 1st half losing 3-0 and received the 4-0 unexpectedly at 54' after an impressive break through by Sealandia's forward Vito Finazzi. The locals exploded in chants and thought promotion was theirs, only to shush 5' later when Ionel 'the Fox' Bâlea sneaked a goal that gave Golden the promotion due to goal difference, despite the lousy play.
The numbers:
55- The goal difference that allowed Golden to stay top of the series and promote to the next level.
15- Goals for Sófocles Garrido to achieve top scorer of the series.
950879- € had been gathered from the entrance fee during this season.
5- Was the amount of cigarettes coach Tommi Marttala smoked on every half-time break.
10- Stamped in the back of Ionel's t-shirt, and on each supporter's heart, is the lucky number of the season.
Thanks to all the supporters and to Golden's Management Team, as they are also part of this achievement. Now it's time to celebrate with the team and start looking forward to the next season.
By the way, congratulations to White Samurais and Harimau FC, for reaching promotion and manage to retain the category (with strong tiger claws), respectively. However, our warmest regards to Raging Aliens whom had been demoted in advance last weekend by staying in 7th position, best of luck for the next season.
