*The numbers in the brackets indicate the number of players that have represented each country.*
Last weekโs edition of the practice tournament (nations league) saw 13?countries represented. Team Ugandan ๐บ๐ฌ represented by 7 played led the participation table. Followed by Team Colombia ๐จ๐ดrepresented by 6 players. Team Kyrgyzstan ๐ฐ๐ฌ represented by 3 players came in third. Austria ๐ฆ๐นKazakhstan ๐ฐ๐ฟ & the U.K. ๐ฌ๐ง were represented by 2 players each. With 1 each from the remaining 7 countries: Antigua & Barbuda ๐ฆ๐ฌ, Benin ๐ง๐ฏ , Belarus ๐ง๐พ, China ๐จ๐ณ, Germany ๐ฉ๐ช, Ghana ๐ฌ๐ญ Nigeria ๐ณ๐ฌ
Colombia ๐จ๐ด has overtaken the U.K. ๐ฌ๐ง and is now in 2nd position with 179.5?points. Nigeria ๐ณ๐ฌcontinues to make an effort to bridge the gap with its now 89.0 points. However connection issues and a a reduction in players plague these efforts.
Colombia ๐จ๐ด it seems has taken up the organisational challenge, adding two players to its team this week, to take its team members to 10. Still far short of Team Ugandaโs ๐บ๐ฌ 21, with an addition of an extra player. With 22 editions to go this seasonโs league is quickly drawing to a close. Will Colombia ๐จ๐ด, the UK ๐ฌ๐ง or Nigeria ๐ณ๐ฌ be able to mount a final valiant assaults to overtake Ugandaโs ๐บ๐ฌ lead? It is looking less and less likely.
