ACSL Round 5

Angel City posted a trio of wins during round 5 of the ACSL Saturday at Playa Vista.

Angel City FC took the EPL title a week early with a 4-2 win over That's What She Said.  A hat-trick from T and a single from DW, lifted the squad's record to four wins and a tie for 13 points. Malibu United sit in second with a week to go ... on nine points, having collected three points this week from a default by Mr Snuggleton.  Any points by Angel City next week in their matchup with Mr Snuggleton would also hand the squad the top seed for Cup action June 2.

In La Liga action ACFC also secured a playoff spot with a default win -- 3-0 -- over Trenchtown United. ACFC are tied on 10 points now with the Slutty Buffalos, with both teams now out of reach of the third place Swamp Donkeys (on 6) and Trenchtown United with just a single point.  The Buffalos and Donkeys agreed to a 0-0 result this week after neither could field a squad.  Next week ACFC and the Buffalos will face off for the La Liga title and first and second place.

In Serie A the AC Allstars racked up their best win of the season -- 8-2 over an undermanned LA Plushdamentals.

DW scored a brace, Brandon Cole a hat-trick and Rahoul Ghose, Kevin and Ben Kull all added singles.

The win leaves the squad one point out of second place behind Real Talk, who beat the One Touch Allstars 9-4. Real Talk and the Allstars play in the final week for the second playoff spot in Serie A.

LA Plushdamentals, now on 10 points, would seem to have things wrapped up, but if they drop points anything is possible. If they lose and the Allstars win, the Plushdamentals would be eliminated on head-to-head GD and the Allstars would take the Serie A title.
