Luis Silva...................1 41st Challenge Cup Championship Match: RICK MARQUES 1-1 (2-1) MIGUEL MARQUES The 41st Challenge Cup saw the uninspired Silvas losing to the on-fire Marques Brothers. Lou's flicks were just not there as he could not create much, despite a rather open game. Frank on the other hand competed against Rick and lost 2-1 and 3-1 to Miguel. He had chances to score, but by taking those extra flicks, he gave his opponents time to regroup defensively. This was the first Club title for the young Marques, who is definately the most improved player in the State. check MIGUEL's stats check RICK's stats Previous 39 Cups Back Home |
