Championship Game Summary
Children of Argentina 2, Lanaxes 1
Sixteen teams participated in the grueling World Cup Soccer Tournament. When
the tournament came to an end The Children of Argentina (CA) prevailed 2-1 over
Lanaxes. CA advanced to the second round of the tournament by winning two matches
and drawing one while Lanaxes won all three of their group games. Both teams survived
semi-final thrillers to advance to the championship.
In the final, neither team scored in the first half, although both had many scoring
opportunities. Finally, in the 7th minute, Alex Ruiz (CA) sent a through ball to
Cesar Vargas who buried a left footed blast into the net. Six minutes later Ruiz found the
net himself. Lanaxes then opened up their attack and scored in the 16th minute as
Demo Dominique collected a ball on the right flank from Kwame Bryan and blasted a
low drive into the net. This, however, would be the last opportunity for Lanaxes as CA
tightened up their defense and secured the 2-1 victory.
