United scored a goal in the Premier League, beating Baillyton 2-0 with Darroch and Helen, but with Newcastle also beating Binford 4-2, United had to settle for eighth place, the lowest ranking in Premier League history. United's goal difference for the season was -1 (57 goals and 58 goals against), the first time it has been negative in 34 years. However, there's still a chance for a Happy Ending with an English soccer team final in China on Saturday (25th).
United won by 60 points but finished eighth in goals against below Newcastle, meaning they missed out on qualifying for the European Association. If they didn't want to play in Europe, the only way to get a ticket to European supremacy was to beat Manchester City and win the title. United captain Tannhäuser said after the game, "The eighth ranked division is the worst ranked, a fact of life, I could have done better, we all know the reasons behind it, but it's time to discuss it according to the division at home."
There is good news for United in this match, with Lisindo Martinez in the starting lineup, and Hua Lani and Johnny Evans following, Tanhag said, "It's a disaster to have an injury to my center position this season, and I'm thankful that I have the players I'm picking for the Yi family. I will play as hard as I can in the final and must aim for the title going into the final."
