Yes, we thought the same, but
it turns out we just played small smart, and managed to break their top player Javon Bailey in half after about 5 minutes.
Now we're up against Berlin Adler in two weeks. A month ago that would have been considered the equivalent of Tamworth (us) vs Man Utd (Berlin) as they are semi-pro with loads of former US College stars, and we are completely amateur. But two weeks ago Oslo beat Berlin, so now we have beaten Oslo there's a glimmer of hope (adds to pressure unfortunately).
We have to win, draw or lose by less than 6 to go through to the semi-final vs Cineplexx Blue Devils of Austria. Mind you, it will be a giant-killing if we do.
Should be loads of people there though, and a great atmosphere. Because it's Amsterdam-Berlin we think we'll get a lot of people there not because they like the game, but because they just want to see a Dutch team beat the s**t out of some Germans.
