A pair of wins today in ACSL action at Playa Vista ensured both host squads a place in the four-team Cup round in December, with a match still to play.
The AC Allstars knocked off Esjberg 6-1 to solidify 2nd place in the EPL on 10 points, three points behind Malibu United, who took a 3-0 decision due to a Real Talk default. Neither Real Talk nor Esjberg FC can make up the points spread with only one week left in the regular season.
David Woirhaye recorded another hat trick during the match, which also saw strikes from Mathieu, Greg and Mark. Despite the four-week break, the squad played a calm passing game and took their chances well.
The Allstars will play EPL division leaders next (Dec. 11) for the title with the home side needing to win by more than three goals to hoist the division cup. Malibu took the first meeting 3-0. A win would put the teams tied on 13 points with head-to-head results being the first deciding factor.
In La Liga action, Angel City FC won a hard-fought 6-4 match against TWSS to move within three points of div leaders the Old Boys, who dropped a 4-0 loss to the Swamp Donkeys on the day.
Mike Gemballa and Michael Sharp each notched a brace while Kevin and Brandon Cole added singles.
The Donkeys sit three points behind Angel City with a game to go, but even if they tie on points, they have already lost the head-to-head match up by a combined 10-6. (2-5, 8-1).
Angel City and the Old Boys will also fight for a division title on the final week, with ACFC needing a win by two or more goals to topple the current top place squad. The Old Boys won the first round match 3-2.
Week 6 (of 6) play continues next month with games at 1 and 2 PM on Dec. 11.
