With the new season underway, it was Seoul Mystic who were slow out of the blocks against a rampant Rova Mpanjaka, not putting up much of a fight against the bookies favourites for the title.
Seoul seemed to have no answer to Rova's aggression and quality, falling to a somewhat surprising 6-1 loss. Hans Grundar got his season off to a hot start managing to bad a hat-trick while Seoul seemed powerless to stop Rova or even start themselves to get back into the match. No word as of yet on the rumblings behind the scenes at Seoul but nobody was expecting to have such a humbling defeat right out of the blocks.
It will be interesting to see how Seoul bounce back to this result but will equally be interesting to see if Rova will continue on this dominance. With Cairo City next in waiting for Seoul, all eyes will be on the performances of the players, many who will want to show they can actually play and thrive at this level. While of course it is far to early for any panic buttons to be pressed, another performance like this may mean changes are made to try and get the team to gel and hopefully secure a result.
Either way, it is good to be back and this season is sure to be a roller-coaster of emotion as the twists and turns will unfold as the season progresses.
