SportsKeedaLeague table and awards from Honda HFL Week 6The race for the Honda HFL title took an interesting turn after Week 6.12 Oct 2016Week 6 of the Honda HFL was full of excitement and entertainment as we saw the big guns come up against each other on Super Saturday and 5 derby games on Derby Day Sunday. Hexa United maintained their advantage by going 6 points clear this week and also beat one of their major threats, The Invincibles, 2-0 in an extremely hard fought match.
Team of the Week Deccan SportingFriends FC, powered by Froogal, produced the shock result of this week in their Derby against Rossoneri after they managed a 1-0 win without two of their top goal scorers. The team of the week, however, were Deccan Sporting after they secured a draw against Rossoneri on Super Saturday in a game where they were a goal behind and then a victory against The Invincibles 2-1 in the derby to stir themselves clear of their closest competitors and climb into the third spot.
Deccan currently look like the only team that are capable of catching up to the league leaders Hexa United and with games in hand, they are in prime position to secure second spot and qualify for the IFCL.
