Spain 3-1 Germany

The Spring Intramural finished with a bang, with the last two World Champions providing an exciting  climax.
The first half finished goalless thanks to some excellent goalkeeping at both ends (Lucrezia and Octavio) and Germany should probably have been ahead at the interval. The first real chance fell to Edoardo R but Lucrezia made a fantastic save down low to her left. Not long afterwards, Lucrezia also denied  Ludo from close range and then Spain broke Ricky twice for Spain. The firs time, he shot just wide and the second time Octavio made a great save. Octavio intervened again soon afterwards when he stopped a piledriver from Sam and, back at the other end, Andrew was lucky to get away with a careless back-header and Luca came close with a diving header.
Ricky opened the scoring in the second half when he got away from Luca and shot low past Octavio. Francesco almost equalised but his shot came back off the bar and Edo Recchi missed a good chance too. Germany paid for their mistakes when Noah G found space on the right and shot past Octavio. Sasha hit the post and Luca made it 2-1 with three minutes to go. Germany rushed forward but couldn't score. Spain did, through Sasha.
BEST PLAYER POINTS: Lucrezia 7, Sasha 4, Noah G 5, Octavio 1, Francesco R 1,  Luca 1, Riccardo G 1, Andrew 1
