It was the final match of the season and AKITA was facing MAGIC knowing that a draw would have given them the title. It was a tight and nervous game all along with no team able to make a difference. By half time nothing was done as both teams were still on par at 9 - 9 with some scrappy moments reflecting the tension.
In the second half, MAGIC moved slighty ahead and AKITA was chasing after feeling the pressure. AKITA pushed hard but as the final whistle go blown, AKITA was still one behind and let the title slip away by this lone goal.
That was disappointing but with 2 promotions in 2 years, the AKITA team did achieve something very special and will hopefully use that to establish themselves quickly as a pillar of the first Division.
