Amrit Boys take Winners trophy in Champions League (Silver) at MedCup 2018

A proud Ambrit qualified for the Champions League at Medcup this year and came home with the winners trophy in the Champions Silver category.
They played five games on day 1, winning three and losing two - against IS Lausanne and BIS Cairo.
Ambrit lost to Lausanne by two goals and, against Cairo, they would have tied the game but luck was not on their side.
In our last game of the morning , we played and beat Jeddah Prep, our goal coming from Manfredi’s header after an assist by Alessandro. The last two games were played in the afternoon with a rested and confident Ambrit, this time ready to defend their goal at all costs against IS Hannover and Moser Geneva. With a new defensive formation, Ambrit secured their goal in the first half of the game against Hannover with a goal by Manfredi. Knowing they had to win to qualify, they defended well until the end of the game. With Cairo ahead on goal difference, Ambrit did what any other team would have done and put all their energy into winning the last game of the first day against Moser Geneva. A very fast paced game saw Manfredi scoring 2 goals and Niccolo getting 4 in, as well as Jerry with the final goal for a 7-0 win.
On day 2, Ambrit played four games.
Game 1 against Prague was a 2-2 tie, goals from Manfredi and Niccolo. Next up was Berlin, and Manfredi and Niccolo (2) scored again in a 3-1 win.
Ambrit next faced Cairo in an intense return game. Both teams played with great determination and both goalies saved excellent shots and managed to keep the ball out of the net. Unfortunately, in a moment of distraction, Cairo managed to get one in and then defended their goal, giving Ambrit no chance of getting through to equalize.
In the Afternoon Ambrit faced Mashrek from Jordan. Disappointed from their earlier defeat, Ambrit was determined to win this game. Aden led the team by scoring the first 2 goals followed by Manfredi's goal for 3-0 and managed to hank on for a 3-1 win.
Ambrit’s last game on Sunday vs Marbella was a fight for first place in the league. Ambrit won 2-0 with both goals from our co-captain Manfredi, bringing home the 1st place Cup in Champions Silver League.
