Edwardsville played with all the determination to show the seriousness of their championship contest as they went back to top the International League with a sound beating of Jaambar. The game, played in the 92 degrees heat of Sunday, August 10, was not without flarring tempers as most players keept complaining about both the officiation, and the roughness of their opponents. Second half brought a couple of changes on either side with Frank coming in for Oniffe to join the defense of Roger, Nik and Tonnie. Paul and Henry replaced Reuben and Tunde in the midfield, while Sam and Tonde combined to form an all new attacking force. Midway through the second half, Tonde made a smart over-the-head kick to beat the advancing Jaambar goalie to make it 4-1. Badum was again on the scoring sheet with a low shot that Jammbar keeper did not even attempt to stop. Three teams now all have 9 points after winning all their three home games, but losing two away. Edwardsville tops the chart with a superior goal aggregate, followed by Springfield. Jaambar who went unbeaten midway through the season have now lost two consecutive games and are on position three. St. Louis United still tail the table with their winningless campaign so far this year.
