ELF Network

Fehérvár Enthroners compete
In a close game between the Enthroners and Vikings, the Eastern Conference matchup came down to last minute plays. Enthroners and quarterback Kevin Doyle competed until the very end, with the Vikings having to do without Florian Wegan and Weston Carr. Even with more total yards and a longer time of possession, the Enthroners lost one of the most exciting games this season with 20-21.
Surge clinch Central Conference win
The Stuttgart Surge were travelling to Innsbruck to fight for the Conference win and got out with a deserved victory. In all phases of the game and all quarters, the Surge managed to put a stamp on that game. Looking at the Raiders, it was not the game they planned for. In the end, a 38-28-win for the Surge clinched the Central Conference win.
Ravens dominate late
For the Munich Ravens, there is still some hope left in the 2023 season. In dominating fashion late in the game, the Ravens managed to put 50 points on a Seamen' defense that lacked stability all season. 27 points in the last quarter sealed the deal. Oyewo, Castle or Jeffries were too much to handle. Ravens won 50-29.
Paris Musketeers get hot too late
Over 600 offensive yards and a dominant Zach Edwards helped the Musketeers to score exactly 50 points against a normally good coached defense of Barcelona. With help of Kyle Sweet or Adria Botella Moreno, Paris showed what they are capable of, scoring in all quarters, but too late in the regular season. Barcelona Dragons were overwhelmed in a 9-50-loss.
No chance for Prague
Gerald Ameln, starting running back for the Centurions, managed to put the Centurions' offense on his shoulders in that game. With three touchdowns and a strong Centurions offensive line, the Cologne franchise try to end their season on a positive note. For Prague, a 9-37-win came by no suprise in Week 13.
Rhein Fire remain undefeated
In a record-breaking crowd in Switzerland in front of over 3000 fans, the Rhein Fire dominated both lines, putting up more total yards and allowing fewer yards on defense than the Guards. Even Raji, offensive tackle, scored a rushing touchdown in a drive of offensive coordinator Andrew Weidinger getting creative. At no risk, Rhein Fire won 43-17.
Frankfurt reaching for the stars
Combining a strong Jakeb Sullivan and a young Sea Devils' squad in Week 13, resulted in a 23-13-win for the Galaxy in the end. The game, interrupted by a thunderstorm, featured a great crowd on both sides, Sea Devils' switching back to Salieu Ceesay at quarterback and few highlights on both sides of the ball.
