“Wow, a wonderful game, well worth its Championship billing!
This was without doubt the closest game I have ever been involved in on FUMBBL. Neither side had any clear advantage, it really could have gone either way.
In the end, after a full half of Overtime, the teams could not be separated, so the referee had no choice but to settle it with penalty kicks. And of course, the Orcs were better at this than the Khemri, and took the BBL Euro Division Championship for the second time!
During regulation time, both teams scored from their kick off drives. And both teams almost scored following their opponent's scores. In the first half a novel Throwing play by the Legends almost paid off; in the second, a Sippers player hidden from Legends eyes almost made a winning play at the death, but failed to Hand Off the football.
In Overtime, Farscape won the toss and received, thundering up the field for a comfortable score. This left a tight finale, with the Sippers having a little time to fight back- which they did, again comfortably.
The teams refused to lie down and lose, knowing what was at stake. In the circumstances, penalties seemed the only option to decide it.
Super game dude, I will remember this one for some time to come! The Sippers retain their title!
