D2B East Power Ranking – Playoff Push
1. San Sharti CF
San Sharti only sits 2 points behind Buona Notte after a strong run of performances. Their run up the table has been inspiring to say the least. San Sharti has officially clinched a playoff spot.
2. Cougars SC
Another team on 46 points, Cougars have scored an impressive 42 goals, but have conceded 20, second most in the top 8. Can their attack propel them into D1 next season?
3. Buona Notte
After a 4/12 week last week, Buona Notte only sits 2 points ahead of San Sharti and Cougars. Their 9 goals allowed are tied for the best in the league, and would expect a return to form to lock up the top seed heading into the playoffs.
4. DANZ FC
Scoring an absurd 50 goals is DANZ, who now see themselves 14 points Clear of 9th place, DANZ have certainly figured out how to succeed with restrictions. With this momentum, DANZ might see themselves back in D1 after only 1 season.
5. Deportivo Lara
After a strong start to the season, Deportivo Lara has cooled off, but still sit 19 points clear of 9th and have clinched a playoff spot. Hopefully they turn it around and finally get over the hurdle into D1.
6. GG United
Their defense has conceded only 12 goals, 3rd best in the division, with 34 goals scored. They have been called for a few forfeits for restriction violations, which hurts their standing in the table. If that can be cleaned up, this team is likely far better than their position in the table.
7. Dojo FC
Dojo have had an impressive turnaround, similar to DANZ and see themselves likely to gain a playoff spot. A +18 goal differential is right on pace with most teams in the playoffs and will be a competitive matchup for any team they face.
8. Collective FC
Collective find themselves 6 points clear with 6 games to go. While it has been an up and down season, it is impressive that they have been able to fight back and get a spot in the top 8.
9. Highlanders FC
Their -24 goal differential is 4th worst, with a low attacking output. However, they are getting results and are just on the outside looking in. One strong week could see them back into the top 8 and sneak into the playoffs on the final day.
10. Portugoal
This team has had to face a lot of issues this season, but still sit only 6 points out from a playoff spot. Can they keep pace and steal a spot at the death?
11. Invincible XI
Invincible have scored the 2nd fewest goals in the league, but sit on 22 points, only 9 points out. It would take a miracle for them to qualify at this point.
12. Capoeira Futbol
A disappointing season from Capoeira, who find themselves eliminated from playoff contention already. Hopefully they can add some new talent and make a playoff push next season.
13. FC Wockhardt
A disappointing season for FC Wockhardt with only 3 goals scored and eliminated from playoff contention.
14. Notorious XI
Folded.
