Premier World League – Group A Round 38 Recap

The final round of Group A brought the 2025 season to a dramatic close, with champions crowned, spots secured, and heartbreak at the bottom.

🔝 Top of the Table

• Cienciano (PER) finished the season in style, securing 1st place with 89 points. Their consistency both home and away, along with a league-best +63 goal difference, made them deserving champions.

• Universitario (PER) pushed them all the way but had to settle for 2nd on 87 points, just two behind. Despite finishing with the same number of wins, a weaker goal differential left them just short.

• Sporting Cristal (PER) rounded out the top three with 86 points, ensuring a Peruvian sweep at the summit.

⚔️ Continental Spots & Strong Finishers

• Santa Fe (COL) and Valencia (SPA) ended level on 85 points, with only goal difference separating 4th and 5th. Both were among the toughest sides in attack, breaking the 110-goal mark.

• Barcelona (SPA) ended 6th on 78 points, showing flashes of brilliance but too many slip-ups in the second half of the season cost them.

• Hong Kong FC (HK) and Bolognesi (PER) held their top-8 positions, ending with 69 and 64 points respectively.

⚖️ Mid-Table Battle

• Manchester United (UK) had a mixed campaign, finishing 9th with 64 points—showing their strength at home but inconsistency away.

• The likes of Deportivo Cali (COL), Alianza Lima (PER), and Sport Boys (PER) all finished tightly packed in the 10th–12th spots.

• San Jose (USA) secured a respectable mid-table position (13th) with 51 points.

📉 Struggles & Relegation

• Arsenal (UK) had a nightmare season, finishing 15th with 42 points and a shocking -49 goal difference. Their away form was particularly poor, costing them dearly.

• Chelsea (UK), on the other hand, finished 16th with 47 points, barely avoiding further embarrassment thanks to a strong home run in the last stretch.

• Feyenoord (NEATH) and Pegasus (HK) both landed in the bottom half but kept themselves safe from the drop.

At the very bottom, it was heartbreak for several clubs:

• Real Racing (SPA), Sao Paulo (BRA), and Montreal Impact (USA) all struggled for consistency and dropped into the relegation zone.

• Aucas (ECU) had the worst campaign, finishing last with only 28 points and conceding a staggering 108 goals.

⭐ Final Notes

• Cienciano’s triumph marks a historic moment, proving themselves the dominant force in Group A.

• Peruvian football as a whole shone brightest, with four clubs in the top 12.

• Meanwhile, some traditional giants—like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Sao Paulo—were left to reflect on seasons of disappointment and underachievement.

The curtain falls on Group A with thrilling storylines at both ends of the table—crowns lifted in Peru, and bitter relegation battles that will echo into next season.
