🏆 Final 8? No thanks, these three teams slipped up at the crucial moment
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇩🇪 here. The teams for the Final 8 have been set since Monday. Not included are B2B United, Two Stripes United, and the Fokus Eagles. Yet, everything actually seemed to be going their way. Berlin City defeated the team in eighth place convincingly, thus giving the three chasing teams a chance to break into the Top 8 after Fokus Eagles, who played the third match of the evening, had to concede defeat to the underdogs and were thus eliminated even before the Plyrs' game. It was different for B2B United. They saw the Plyrs lose and could have overtaken them with a win. But even with the support of Quaresma and Ben-Hatira, they couldn't manage a victory against DNA Athletics. In the end, B2B went down 4:10, and even Elias Nerlich, who played as a wildcard for DNA, scored against them. Two Stripes could have sealed the deal in the last match of the evening against the already eliminated bottom team. But apparently, the pressure was too much, as they also faltered at the decisive moment. They lost what was probably the most important match of the season 2:3 and now have to watch the final in Berlin as spectators. The Plyrs were on edge all evening, but in the end, they were able to celebrate qualifying for the finals. 📸 Pau Barrena - 2024 Getty Images

Portuguese legend Quaresma shines in Alor Star
KUALA LUMPUR: On an invitation, Portuguese legend Ricardo Quaresma came to Alor Star on Saturday and duly lit up the night. Quaresma dazzled with one goal and one assist to lead Kedah All Stars to a thrilling 4-3 win over Malaysia All Stars in a friendly. The much-anticipated match, jointly organised by Kedah and the Malaysia Football Museum, reunited fans with some of Malaysia's stars from the past. Among the fan favourites who laced up their boots one more time were Nafuzi Zain, Helmi Eliza and Khairul Helmi for Kedah, while the Malaysia side paraded names like Amri Yahyah and Faiz Subri. But it was the presence of Quaresma and his countryman Joao Tomas that enthralled the crowd. Tomas wasted no time in making his presence felt, tapping home a well-placed cross to hand Kedah an early lead. The former Benfica striker soon doubled the advantage, finishing off a sublime assist from Quaresma. Before the first half came to a close, Quaresma turned scorer, firing home Kedah's third goal. Malaysia All Stars scored their first goal after the breather through a penalty by A. Jayakanthan. But Khairul Ismail restored Kedah's three-goal lead midway through the second half with a powerful finish. There was late drama from the away team as Liew Kit Kong and Amar Rohidan struck in quick succession to narrow the deficit. But Quaresma who had played for giants like Barcelona, Inter Milan and Chelsea, was not to be denied his victorious outing in northern Malaysia.
