Kiran stayed top then. 

The Wateringhole Society put on a clinic and dismantled Nil Satis 7-1, after falling behind to Andros Townsend’s penalty too. Bukayo Saka equalised five minutes after that goal and a brilliant Maxwell Cornet volley had Kiran in front by the break. Ismail Sarr headed in at the far post to make it three and Neil Maupay’s injury time lob put the icing on the cake. Michael Keane, Nelson Semedo and Ezri Konsa put clean sheets on top of that icing. Trusted are three points behind the leaders after beating the CFJs 2-1. Raphinha opened the scoring on 19 minutes and Gabriel Jesus’ smart shot on the turn doubled the advantage eight minutes after the interval. Yoan Wissa opened his WSFFL account for the Cows but it was only a consolation.

San Dimas are third after the first draw of the season in the league, 0-0 against Cheese Makers. This game looked like it could have gone either way and then didn’t go any way. Claymore are fourth but lost a second game in a row. Clive’s team went down 4-2 to Mega Bucks, Ethan Pinnock and P-E Aubameyang both scored in the 27th minute and Wilf Zaha added a penalty in first half stoppage time to put Dave 3-0 up at the break. Abdoulaye Doucoure pulled one back for Clive before Michail Antonio got the Bandits fourth in the last minute.

Fred also lost his second game of the season, 2-1 to the Muppets. Reece James' early clean was levelled by Mo Salah’s goal but it was a huge deflection off Junior Firpo that proved to be Ryan’s winner - although it wouldn’t have been had Bruno Fernandes not blazed a penalty over. The Artisans are going the right way now and are up tp seventh after beating YTFIB 1-0. Emile Smith Rowe finished off a great team move on 12 minutes and there was no more scoring.

Jamie Vardy got a brace for Wheel Madrid but his goal for the Aardvarks proved crucial. That unlucky flick into his own goal gave the Aardvarks in front and Diego Jota added a header to give Ady a two goal lead. Vardy pulled one back before the break but Son Heung-Min restored the advantage and Vardy’s third of the game wasn’t enough for Paul W to grab a point. Markian picked up their first league win of the season thanks to Luke Shaw going off with a clean after 34 minutes and Stanley Athletic not managing to muster a reply.
