Tonight London Mint will face their final test to qualify for the world finals, where they will go head to head against the winner of the US playoffs. The winner of this match will be the 8th and final team to gain a spot in the finals, where they will face all the best teams in the world.
After a disappointing loss to Birmingham Salvo yesterday, Mint need a win today to have a chance of getting the 8th and final place in the World Finals.
Stockholm Magnetik were only defeated by one round last night at the hands of the Berlin Allianz, so this won't be a walkover for the London side, but they will be going into the game full of confidence, says Mint GM Ben Woodward.
Having just flown out to LA, in a few days Mint and Salvo will go head to head in one of the most important matches of the player’s lives. The winner will get to stay in LA for the world finals, and the loser will be sent home packing. A year ago the two franchises went head to head, and even though Salvo looked like the favourites going into it, they were demolished by Mint when it came down to it. Will there be a repeat this year, or will Salvo pull it out when it counts?
