The Artisans kept their 100% record going, and ended Athletico’s unbeaten run, with a 3-1 win. Mason Mount opened the scoring after 17 minutes but most of the action came late. Dan James made it 2-0 with an excellent curling strike with a minute left, Nathan Redmond tapped in to pull one back for Brian a minute into injury time but the Artisans finished it off when Patrick van Aanholt’s shot squirmed in at the near post. Ben’s is the last 100% record after the Wateringhole were held to a draw by Claymore. Clive’s team were 3-1 up after 64 minutes, two from Sergio Aguero and another from Teemu Pukki against a stunning free-kick from Harry Wilson for TWS. Marcus Rashford missed a penalty for Kiran but Harvey Barnes' stunning strike straight after that made it 3-2. The mighty Society earned another penalty seven minutes into injury time. This time Raul Jimenez took it, and scored. 3-3.

Fred are quietly going about their business in third and two goals in ten minutes from Mo Salah, one from the spot and one a textbook break, saw off Nil Satis. San Dimas beat Mega Bucks by the only goal, an excellent half-volley from Ashley Barns, to go fourth.

The CFJs have patiently brought Tammy Abraham along after signing the striker in 2016 and were rewarded with the two goals that beat Markian. The joint-managed team are our only pointless side after three games. Trusted are another unbeaten side but were held 1-1 by YTFIB. Andre Gray put Beef ahead but it was Oli McBurnie who rose highest to head Julian’s equaliser just after the hour.

After a dreadful start to the season Matthew must have been fearing the worst when the Aardvarks took the lead at Le Stade through Lucas Torreira with five minutes to go. The Fromagers showed some backbone to turn it round, levelling through Anwar El Ghazi deep into injury time and then picking up winning cleans through Heaton and Mings. The Aardvarks are still winless as are Wheel Madrid who blew a three goal lead against the Muppets. Wesley’s first WSFFL goal had been followed by Jamie Vardy and Joel Matip’s header in the first 41 minutes but Raheem Sterling threw Ryan a lifeline two minutes before the break. Two goals from record signing Sebastian Haller, the second an acrobatic close-range finish, brought the scores level.
