This was at 1/2 time and they were still very much in the game but like the Japanese on this date Dec 7 they had the Americans down but they would surrender. Alegria did indeed seem to be the movers at 1/2 time they fell behind by 1 in the first and were down 4 in the second and roared back to be down by 2 as they lost to many throw inns but flashed back at the end of 2nd to get 2 fine goals in a 1.20 to finish 5 to 3 won the 3 rd 3 to 1 at 6 to 6 to enter the 4th tied 8 to 8 a very good chukkar for both teams started second 1/2 no score for 3 minutes Alegria jumps on a big one goes in front 9 to 8 35 seconds or so later AC ties it up and then gets another to take the lead for good at the end of the fifth it was 10 to 9 Dolphina . The 6 th was probably worst chukkar of game but worse for A they missed a couple nice chances to score and also Pelon had a big fall but came out ok but Dolphina won it 1 to 0 to go up by 2 at 11 to 9 the 7th seemed to be the downer for Algreia they did so many things right but could not convert missed easy goals or sort of easy and 2 penalties and still just lost 2 to 1 but it was 13 to 10 at end of 7th and you are giving AC a 3 goal lead that is not good the first of the 8th was going to be important mentally and AC knew it and under direct fire he scored in the first 45 seconds and to me that was the game the rest is history . Alegria did what no one has done for a very long time brought a team from Qualifications for the last 3 yrs to the finals not anyone can say that I do not think . It is a mental victory but as I know FM one and two it just makes the hunger grow so look out if Elerstina does not steal Polito they are going to be close for a while . Congratulations are due for La Dolphina as Sebe did an awesome job filling in for Nero and AC will return to # 1 in the World again.
Also a lot should be said for the Zavaleta’s Julio and Clemente as they have guided this effort for several years and Julio has been the person who probably helped them on and off the field as anyone well done and the Big C goes to MR MANNIX he makes it happen now he is FRED Senior no more Freddie J under him .
A FANTASTIC DAY A FUN FINAL AND FINE SPORTSMANSHIP ON THE TELE ANYWAY AWESOME MOVE LUCAS SHOWED WHEN CLOCKING PELON BEST LOOK FOR POLO YOU COULD HAVE .
