On the 12th of December NULC Team 19 were involved in a cup week. It was a bitterly cold day and all games were played in high spirits even though the conditions were poor.
Pictured below is the winner of the cup Borrusia Teeth after they celebrated the victory in a penalty shoot-out. Their road to the Final was quite tough as in the group stages they drew their first game 0-0 but then destroyed the next opponent 4-0 which made them go through as the second best placed team.
In the Semi final they played winners of the league Murder on Zidane Floor. It was a tense game and with only a couple of minutes left Kevyn Davies (2nd from left) struck to open the deadlock with a lofted ball that eluded the goalkeeper and went into the back of the net. A further goal in the last minute was scored to make the semi-final 2-0.
They were up against Hangover 96 in the final and after a stalemate with little chances it went to penalties. The hero was Borussia Teeth’s Goalkeeper as he saved 2 out of the 3 penalties and made sure that they progressed through to the tournament at St George’s Park in the summer and win the NULC Team 19 cup.
