Claymore and the Artisans have been scoring goals for fun lately (does anybody score goals for non-fun?) and hey shared six this week. The game burst into life after a goalless first half with Scott Dann giving Clive the lead. Goals from Roberto Firmino and a sharp shot on the turn from Jesse Lingard either side of the hour mark turned the tables and when Adam Johnson slotted a free-kick in with eight minutes left it looked like POTW was sewn up. With three minutes left though Sergio Aguero glanced in (from an offside position?) to narrow the lead and a Joel clean meant the points were shared.

Athletico failed to capitalise though as they fell to a re-invigorated CFJs performance. Chris and co. were 3-1 up at the break but another stunning piece of Riyad Mahrez skill pulled a goal back and an unmarked Diego Costa levelled for Brian in injury time. There was still time for a Virgil van Dijk clean to keep all the points at the Drove Stadium. Fred is up to third after a 4-0 win over YTFIB. Julian held out for 70 minutes before Lallana, Defoe and two cleans finished them off.

San Dimas fell further back with a defeat at Stade de Fromage. Robert Huth and Romelu Lukaku traded early goals but after Victor Wanyama was sent off for me, Huth again and a Kevin Wimmer clean gave Matthew the win. The Aardvarks beat Nil Satis in the Cup last week but couldn’t repeat the feat in the league. Paul and Dan were ahead through Seamus Coleman’s header but Nacho Montreal grabbed a clean for Ady. FCK2 missed a chance to close in a goalless game with Mega Bucks.

Beef is still on the up, cleans from Ramiro Funes Mori and Marc Muniesa giving him victory at The Wateringhole Society. It’s rare back to back wins for the Muppets to give them breathing space from the bottom two. Alex Mitrovic with Ryan’s goal and Koscielny and Alderweireld cleans beating Final Fantasy.
