Bracket B was full of exciting matches on Thursday. 10 games were played and three teams remain from the bracket with hopes of winning the championship. The dominance of the French national team continued with two of the three remaining bracket B teams playing with Mbape and company. The other team to survive the day was Liverpool.
Every match was fun to watch, but nobody provided more thrills than Sultan Saif. In Sultan Saif's first match his French team escaped elimination by the smallest of margins against Turki's Manchester United team. At the full time whistle the score was tied at 1 - 1 thanks to a late goal by Turki. In the extra time, Sultan Saif headed in a cross to end the match by the golden goal rule. In his next match, Sultan Saif quickly fell behind 2 - 0 to Natnael's Barcelona squad. Griezman had a breakaway chance for Barcelona. If he had scored, Natnael would have won immediately by the 3-goal-lead rule, but he chipped narrowly over the bar. That woke Sultan Saif's team up and when they charged back to the other end, it was Griezman wearing the French shirt that scored for Sultan Saif. After exchanging many goals, the most improbably comeback of the tournament was complete and Sultan Saif had won 4 - 3.
In other action, Abdulla Khaled cruised to three straight victories with the French team. He was completely dominant on the day, scoring seven goals while only conceding one.
Mohamed Ismail and Liverpool is the other team remaining. Due to some 'no shows', Mohamed Ismail only played one match on Thursday. He played against Fahad and Man City on the promenade PS4 and impressed the crowd with a 3 - 0 win.
On Sunday, he will battle Sultan Saif for the right to play against Abdulla Khaled. The winner will advance to the championship round. The last matches of Group A will also be contested on Sunday.
