PAGE 6 Te Awamutu Courier, Thursday, July 28, 2005 Cup glory beckons for soccer team Defending champions stand in their way By Colin Thorsen COOLING? Federation Cup soccer leaders Te Awamutu can clinch the championship with an away win over Taupo on Saturday. Te Awamutu go into their penultimate game WE HAVE THE ANSWERS! with 24 points, four clear of third placed Taupo, who have three games to play. Second placed Ngaruawahia are on 21 points but have only one remaining game. Te Awamutu captain Carl Miezenbeek says his team are fully aware that the three points from a win over Taupo, the defending champions, would cement their cup win. “We drew 1-all the last time we played them at Te Awamutu Stadium in a game that we probably should have won. CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEMS “They (Taupo) will be much tougher this time round at home with the Cup on the line. We’ll be going all out for the win, but a draw might be a • Clean • Efficient • Easy To Use • good result for us.” The one point for a draw would take Te Awamutu to 25 and Taupo to 21, with the likelihood of Te Awamutu picking up the maximum three points for a win in their ﬁ nal game against sixth placed Rotorua City at Te Awamutu Stadium the following weekend. That scenario would see Te Awamutu through to Cup glory with 28 points. Taupo would fall one point short on 27, provided they win their remaining two games. Te Awamutu will need to lift their game a cou- EXCLUSIVE ple of notches after scrambling to a 2-1 win over TO Huntly at the Stadium last Saturday.

Both teams had plenty of opportunities on goal. Huntly hit the woodwork three times, while Te Awamutu missed out on two one-on-one’s with the Huntly keeper.
