Disappointing result for De Jong's Helmond Sport, who missed out a chance to go first in their group yesterday with a 1-1 draw to Zwolle. They are playing in a group of four with the top team going up, as is Sparta Rotterdam has 9 points, Helmond with 8, two matches left. The draw to Zwolle was this latter team's only point in the round so far.

Note I edited this after erring on the earlier post. For some reason rsssf had Sparta confirmed for top flight with no list of the remaining games, so I thought it was already over.

Öster lost 0-2 at home to leaders GAIS in Sweden's Superettan. Tyler Hughes subbed out after some 70 minutes, when Öster changed to 3 defenders as they tried at least find a consolation goal.

Rocco Placentino was subbed out in the 60th minute as Cavese tied Juve Stabia 0-0 in the second leg of the C2C playoff semi today. The match was played behind closed doors in Frosinone. Cavese win 1-0 on aggregate. Cavese will now play Gela on June 12/19 to decide which team promotes to Serie C1.

Julian Uccello came on in the 80th minute as Savona tied Versilia 1-1 in the Serie D Girone A playout. This is Julian's last game with Savona. I believe that Savona will now be relegated on the away goals rule (the first match ended 0-0 in Versilia). Alberto can correct me if I'm wrong.

Savona will remain in serie d next year. It is not decided by away goals they only needed to tie it the final game it is decided on who was the highest in points in the final season. Versilia needed to win today and the tie came at the 95 minute mark with only one minute left in the game. Versilia will be relegated next year into Excellence league.

here are some pics of the celebration in today match.

Ålgård 2 - 4 FK Haugesund

in the Norwegian Second Division, FKH continue to push for promotion. Kojic, Deserpa and Budalic all play 90 minutes. No sign of Pozniak in the last 2 weeks.
