The Phil Jenkins Memorial Cup Liverpool 2007

The sun was glorious at this year’s football tournament, but one team in particular shone, achieving their first ever tournament win. Talar Made beat Langer in a close final to be crowned this year’s champions.

The tournament took place at the Power League Football Centre in Liverpool on a warm July day, but the sun was no match for the talent of the players who took to the pitch like pros.

The 2007 Teams Line Up

Eight teams attended this year’s event and were organized into two groups of four. The teams then went head to head in a 15 minute match, with the top two teams of each group competing against each other in the final.

Most games on the day were fiercely competitive, proving that everyone was most definitely in it to win it.

The opening match of Group A, was RSL v Exolite. Group B hosts Algeos drew their derby match 2-2 against 2004 champions Trust Orthotics in a tight contest. After impressive performances in their respective groups, Langer, Talar Made, Trust Orthotics and Foothealthcare.com were emerging as the tournament’s outstanding teams as they secured their places in the final four.

After two brilliantly played semi finals, both Talar Made and Langer made their debuts against each other in the final.

As anticipated the final was very close, each team creating their chances to win the game. However after a bit of magic from Talar Made, the team won the final with a 1-0 score, claiming their first tournament victory.

The event drew to a close with the teams cooling off with a few beers. Algeos M.D George Jones presented the trophy to the delighted Talar Made captain.
