Oh, What A Night!

A quite stunning might in the Rethmyno, as the sport in Crete made the headlines for all the right reasons!

On a night when 11 a side was in the spotlight for everything that is wrong in the game, the Socca World Cup saw thousands locked out as the hottest ticket in town was again the one which got you into the Leisure Leagues Stadium on the shores of the Med.

The headline game on the night saw World Champs, Germany pegged back from 3-0 to 3-3 as Romania scored three late goals in a controversial match.

A little earlier in the evening, hosts Greece, roared on by a partisan crowd, overcame newboys Chile by 4-2, while there was goals raining in from everywhere as Russia saw off Moldova 6-3 as the Eastern Europeans produced a classic encounter.

Plenty of goal-filled games around elsewhere too, as Spain and Lithuania both cracked in 6 each, against Peru and Lithuania receptively.

As teams play their group games the situation may become a little clearer as the action continues to long into the night in Crete.
