Upset! Albion unseats Blazers in CASA League
Proceeds to CASA finals against Lauderhill Lions
Going toe to toe through an intense showdown, Albion Plantation pulled out a surprise win in penalty round against tournament leaders, Ftl Blazers, this past Monday at the Caribbean America Soccer Association (CASA) Super League, at the Lauderhill Sports Park. Tied 2-2 going into the penalty round, Plantation finally seized a win 4 to 3 in the penalty shoot-outs.
The loss marks heartbreak for the Ftl Blazers, who has been dominating the standings throughout the Super League tournament, with 30 points in total. But it will be fourth ranked Albion Plantation (at 26 points) who will continue to the CASA finals against the Lauderhill Lions this Saturday, June 25, starting at 8:45 p.m.
This past Monday was also an upset win in the CASA Masters League, as the fourth ranked Oldtymers FC neatly defeated tournament leaders, Rockers United, 3 to 1. The Oldtymers FC go proceed to the Masters finals against the State Masters Champions, the Lions Masters, on Saturday, June 25, starting 7:30 p.m.
Celebrating this year’s breakout stars in the tournament, an all-star CASA League team Under 23 squad will also be facing the Fort Lauderdale Strikers Under 23 team in a special showcase before the finals at the Lauderhill Sports Complex at 6:15 p.m.
