The Dallas Cup XXX Super Group final is all set as Vancouver knocked off Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 and Sao Paolo FC defeated Manchester City in penalty kicks after a scoreless draw. Vancouver and Eintracht Frankfurt battled scoreless into the 2nd half on Friday night at Pizza Hut Park with neither team really creating much of any scoring chances at all. Then came the blunder that changed the match completely. Vancouver's Dever Orgill was called for offside deep in the Frankfurt half. The Frankfurt keeper wanted to play short even though a Dever Orgill was lurking closeby. He played a 5 yard ball to the centerback who was immediately under pressure from Orgill. The centerback returned the ball to the keeper who tried to clear upfield, but the Dever Orgill blocked the ball and it rolled into the net for the gamewinner with only 15 minutes to play. Dever Orgill would get a 2nd late on as the Germans were pushing up.
