TanHolding keeps MSL Spring Season lead

TanHoldings Football Club was on fire in last Sunday’s Division A game in the Marianas Soccer League Spring Season 2022 at the NMI Soccer Training Center after torching the NMI U17 Developmental Team, 8-0.

Martin Jambor led TanHoldings’ rout of the NMI U17 after delivering a hat trick, while Joshua Abragan, Jireh Yobech, Michiteru Mita, Kohtaro Goto, and Rakib Hassan added one goal each.

With the lopsided win, TanHoldings is still on top of team standings, as it remains unbeaten in three games.

Eleven Tiger is at close second with its 2-1-0 win-draw-loss following a 3-0 triumph (via forfeit) over Paire, which dropped to third place (2-0-2). The NMI U17 is ranked fourth with a 0-1-2 slate, while Kanoa FC is at the cellar with a 0-0-3 mark.
