Fall Season - Week Seven - November 1st

We continue with last of the cross-divisional games, with teams from the Mecca Division will square off against teams from the Medina Division. 

The Media Team looks back at Week Six results and previews this Friday’s games which you can listen to here.

8:00 PM Sabr (3-0-3) vs Haya (4-0-2)

	Sabr	Haya
Overall Rank	2nd	1st
Division Rank	1st in Mecca	1st in Medina
Week 6 Results	Tied Emaan 3-3	Tied Ihsan 3-3
GF	16	21
GA	12	9
Notes	Sabr was dominant to start, but let the game get away from them as Emaan came back to secure the tie. A win over Haya will have Sabr sitting alone at the top of the league.	Haya tied a game they deserved to lose. They will need to match other teams’ hustle and intensity to stay at the top of the leagues. A win this week helps them pull away from Sabr for 1st overall

9:00 PM Ridha (0-4-2) vs Ikhlas (3-2-1)

	Ridha	Ikhlas
Overall Rank	8th	4th
Division Rank	4th in Mecca	2nd in Medina
Week 5 Results	Loss to Taqwa 4-2	Loss 4-3 against Yaqeen
GF	8	17
GA	16	12
Notes	Ridha missed a golden opportunity to secure a valuable 2 points with a surprising loss to Taqwa. Trades may be coming.	Could not contain the speed of Yaqeen, exposing the footspeed of their key players. Can they regain their form against a last place Ridha?

10:00 PM Ihsan (1-4-1) vs Taqwa (1-5-0)

	Ihsan	Taqwa
Overall Rank	6th	7th
Division Rank	3rd in Mecca	4th in Medina
Week 5 Results	Tied Haya 3-3	Beat Ridha 4-2
GF	8	8
GA	15	19
Notes	Finally able to get on the scoreboard, and production from their top line. Production and continued energy from their second line will be key in beating Taqwa	Secured their first victory again Ridha last week, playing a complete team game. Maintaining a defensive system will be key to trying to catch teams ahead of them

11:00 PM Yaqeen (3-1-2) vs Emaan (3-2-1)

	Yaqeen	Emaan
Overall Rank	2nd	5th
Division Rank	2nd in Mecca	3rd in Medina
Week 5 Results	Won 3-4 against Ikhlas	Tied 3-3 against Sabr
GF	11	17
GA	10	13
Notes	Played their best game of the season last week, all without Defensive stud Arssal. Continued production from Abdul Manjra and EBP will take this teams far	Great comeback to secure the tie, and to be in conversation for top team in the league. Matching Yaqeen’s speed and skill will be the key to winning and trying to catch Haya for first in the division

Fall Season - Week Six - October 25th

We continue with more cross-divisional play with teams from the Mecca Division will square off against teams from the Medina Division. 

The Media Team looks back at Week 5 results and previews this Friday’s games which you can listen to here.

8:00 PM Emaan (3-2-0) vs Sabr (3-0-2)

	Emaan	Sabr
Overall Rank	4th	2nd
Division Rank	3rd in Mecca	1st in Medina
Week 5 Results	Shutout Ihsan 3-0	5 to 4 win over Ikhlas
GF	14	13
GA	8	9
Notes	Over the last three weeks Emaan has been the league’s hottest team. However their wins have come against the bottom three teams in the standings. Let’s see how they fare against the top team in Medina.	Last week was involved in a ‘janky’ game against Ikhlas where neither team deserved to win. Victory went to the team with the one fewer mistake. Can Sabr maintain consistency from start to finish against a streaking Emaan team?

9:00 PM Taqwa (0-5-0) vs Ridha (0-3-2)

	Taqwa	Ridha
Overall Rank	8th	7th
Division Rank	4th in Mecca	4th in Medina
Week 5 Results	Loss to Yaqeen 2-3	Loss to Haya 4-1
GF	4	6
GA	17	12
Notes	This is their playoff game! 6 points out of the playoffs, Taqwa needs to go on a massive winning streak	Although tied with Ihsan for the last playoff spot in the Medina division, Ridha needs to play with a sense of desperation this week and grab a huge 2 points.

10:00 PM Haya (4-0-1) vs Ihsan (1-4-0)

	Haya	Ihsan
Overall Rank	1st	6th
Division Rank	1st in Mecca	3rd in Medina
Week 5 Results	Defeated Ridha 4-1	Loss to Emaan 3-0
GF	18	5
GA	6	12
Notes	Looking to make it three straight victories over The Medina Division with the opportunity to sweep that division the following week.	Have been shutout in three consecutive games. If the trend continues this Friday then Ihsan would go goal-less for the month of October

11:00 PM Ikhlas (3-1-1) vs Yaqeen (2-1-2)

	Ikhlas	Yaqeen
Overall Rank	3rd	5th
Division Rank	2nd in Mecca	2nd in Medina
Week 5 Results	Loss 5-4 against Sabr	Defeated Taqwa 3-2
GF	14	7
GA	8	7
Notes	Played their worse game of the season last week. We will see how resilient Ikhlas is Friday night.	Yaqeen has their eyes on the top spot in The Medina division. A victory on Friday (and some help from Emaan) can see them rise to the top of the division.

	Haya	Ridha
Overall Rank	1st	7th
Division Rank	1st in Medina	4th in Mecca
Week 3 Results	Beat Taqeen 3-1	Lost to Emaan 2-1
GF	14	5
GA	5	8
Notes	Relentless against their opponents, Haya stands on top of the mountain. Akib Malik leading the way with a pair of goals last week.	Ridha, frustrated with another loss to Emaan last week. Have all the skill on the team, just not getting the chemistry going. Will we see a shake up?

	Emaan	Ihsan
Overall Rank	4th	8th
Division Rank	3rd in Medina	3rd in Mecca
Week 3 Results	Beat Ridha 2-1	Defeated by Ihklas 4-0
GF	11	5

Notes	A different team after their trade to acquire Arif Khan. This team is running on all cylinders with two very dangerous lines.  Will it last?	After making a trade to acquire much needed defense Ihsan will be waiting to see the look of their team at capacity. Tough loss to Ikhlas has them frustrated and hungry for a win this week.  Saajid Bhayat in lineup, lets see how the revamped  Ihsan does!
