Senya reach World Cup final, avenging 2014 in the process
In 2014 Senya suffered heartbreak in the semi-final of the World Cup in Indokistan, as Joe Foxon fired home a 121st winner to seal Mercury a place in the World Cup final, a final which they went on to win.
So three years on, another Senya-Mercury semi-final, this time in Senya, was the cause of great interest in this game. Senya were the only semi finalist who had never won the tournament, and having never played in a final before, and many around the stadium were nervous. And when, on 26 minutes Jack Patridge fired home to give Mercury the lead, many were consigning themselves to another third-place play-off. However, with the game entering the last few minutes, Alesandrœ Danetskë fired home to send the 49,000 odd home fans into pandemonium inside the ground. The game entered extra time, but this time there was no 121st minute winner, as the game entered penalties. The first 12 penalties of the shoot-out were all scored, but when Jan Maytek missed from 12-yards, many Senyans were once again consigning themselves to the Third-place match. However, extraordinarily, Stephen Charlton missed his penalty, continuing the shoot-out. From here, Senya remained ruthless, before Sileman Bɏankarlënœ saved defender Arthur Newton's spot-kick to give Senya a place, sparking wild celebrations in the stadium, with yet another pitch invasion as fans poured onto the pitch to congratulate the team.
Following the game, captain Barnaby Hands described the result as "incredible", saying "every one of the lads stepped up today big time. This was without doubt the hardest game we've ever played in Senyan shirts and we've won it! Now we have to push one more time on Sunday, but we have a big big chance now!"
Senya will play the winner of Alexandria and Tellia, who meet in their semi tomorrow.
