Group A • Round 29 Recap
The standings tightened again as we push deeper toward the business end of the 38–round season. Promotion dreams, playoff hopes, and cup positions all continue to shift like puzzle pieces in a shaking box. No relegation danger here, but pride and future glory are very much alive.
Top of the Table
Vancouver Whitecaps FC (CND) stay perched in first with 62 points, still the team to beat. Their attack continues to look like a faucet stuck in the open position. Deportivo Garcilaso (PER) sit just behind with 60 points, keeping the fire hot and waiting for any Whitecaps slip.
Chaco Petrolero (BOL) remain steady in third at 51 points, less concerned with chasing first and more focused on securing that playoff certainty.
Pirata FC (PER) and Excelsior Rotterdam (NEATH) fill out the top five at 50 and 49 points, both holding on to valuable positions in the playoff window.
Movers of the Round
-
Audax Italiano (CHI) climb to 6th, momentum humming nicely after recent wins.
-
Dynamo Moscow (RUS) step up to 10th, currently sitting in the Friendly Cup slot.
-
PFC CSKA Moscow (RUS) climb to 11th, now holding a King’s Cup position.
On the sliding side:
-
Club Deportivo Palestino (CHI) fall to 9th, still in the playoff zone, but the pressure is rising.
-
SC Heerenveen (NEATH) and AS Dakar Sacré-Coeur (SEN) both had rough spells and shuffle downward.
Cup Qualification Race
-
Ranks 2–9 continue to look like a crowded hallway at class change time. One win can launch a team up two or three spots. One loss can throw someone right into the danger of slipping to the Friendly Cup range.
-
Rank 10 (currently Dynamo Moscow) heads toward the Friendly Cup.
-
Ranks 11–12 (CSKA Moscow and Casa Sports) sit in the King’s Cup zone.
Both cup qualifications remain fully in play.
Lower Table Notes
No relegation means the bottom clubs can experiment, rotate, and play loose. But pride still matters:
-
Shandong Luneng Taishan and Guangzhou Evergrande Taobao remain at the bottom, with Guangzhou stuck at 1 point, still looking for a spark to end the season on a more colorful note.
