ACFC and Allstars Playoff-bound

Angel City finished the Spring ASCL regular season with a trio of wins and two berths in the Cup Round June 11.

ACFC ended its perfect season with a sixth straight win (4-1 vs the Swamp Donkeys) to top both the EPL Division, and the league as a whole, as the top seed going into playoffs. The squad earns a bye directly into the semis set for 10 AM next Saturday against the winner of a quarter-final match between That's What She Said and the AC Allstars at 9 AM.

After surviving a missed penalty kick, and then letting in an own goal off a corner kick, ACFC finally hit their stride, with striker James Green notching a hat trick and David Woirhaye adding a single tally for the win. The result knocked the Donkeys --- the defending champions from Spring Season -- out of the playoffs.

The AC Allstars -- who suffered a mixed season of results with three wins, a tie and two losses -- turned their game up a notch against cross-town rivals Del Rey City, who had been dropped into second last week after losing an 8-3 decision to Typhoon FC, this year's Serie A Division winners.

After a 2-2 tie earlier in the season, the Allstars were ready for a tough match against Del Rey, but the unexpected 12-4 final score gave the team second spot and a playoff berth based on both head-to-head results and goal differential. Matt Onheiber, Brandon Cole and James Green each scored hat tricks, followed by David Woirhaye with a brace, and Jonny Ibanez with a single.

In next week's playoffs, if the Allstars knock off TWSS in the quarterfinals, at least one of the semi-finals will be an all blue home team affair.

In La Liga action, which saw Malibu United top the division with a 4-0 win over TWSS, Angel City FC were playing simply for pride. The squad ended the season in third spot with 7-3 trashing of Esjberg FC. James Green and Stan Tran each notched a brace, with Volkert Besseling, Mo and Dan Stafford adding singles.

And finally, in the Angel City Golden Boot competition, James Green topped the field with an impressive collection of 25 goals, followed by David Woirhaye with 10 and Matt Onheiber with 9. (Full stats below)
