| Right about now the nerves are
starting for Spartak as their big Cup Final Day approaches. This game is the last
chance for people to show what they can do in the eternal competition for places. It
is also the last chance for final formations to be settled and roles assigned.
In the past Spartak have a good record against
Cosmos and will hope to keep that run going. A win here would put them on a positive
momentum against the final where they will have to perform at the top of their
ability to beat Darley, against whom they have a singularly poor record.
Stories about Cup Final tickets making a fortune on
the black market were scotched this week when it turned out that all the Spartak
tickets allocated have been accounted for. "Yes, we can confirm that both our
supporters have their tickets" a Spartak spokesman confirmed. |
