We are the champions

A quiet moment with the championship cup for Rumnea and myself as the celebrations died down

We knew it a week ago but Phnom Penh Crown were officially crowned champions of the Metone Cambodian League this afternoon after a pulsating match against their nearest rivals, Naga Corp, ended all square at 3-3. It was a fitting climax to the league season with Naga in front by 3-1 at the interval but Crown staged the comeback of champions and got back to level pegging, though couldn't quite find a winning goal to end the season with bells on it. Nevertheless, it was the Crown players who were celebrating at the final whistle and that carried onto into the presentation of the cup and medals and into the evening, with a team buffet at Tonle Bassac restaurant.
