However, the talking point must be free-scoring Rangers who hit double figures yesterday but fell to a 4-2 defeat to Surf Select.

In an interesting table going into the final day, Northern Ireland and Surf Select share top spot, Rangers and Northeast Rush in third and Ottawa City at the bottom.

It's all to play for to reach the semi-finals.
