The Artisans winning run is halted at six after going down 3-2 to the CFJs. Chris and Co. took an early lead but Ben seemed set for three points after Raheem Sterling and Nicolas Jackson had put him in front with a quarter of an hour left. Mohammed Kudus levelled from the edge of the area on 89 minutes and Gabriel got the clean sheet winner for the Cows. Ben’s one consolation was that none of the top half sides won this week. The Aardvarks also went down 3-2, at home to Claymore. Matias Jensen put Clive ahead on 26 minutes but Micky van de Ven pulled Ady level seven minutes after the break. Abdoulaye Doucoure smashed in on the hour to restore Clive’s lead and an Anton Robinson own goal made it 3-1 eight minutes later. Van de Ven’s clean was only a consolation and Ady stays three points behind the leaders. Claymore are fourth, on counters, behind...

…Markian who jumped from tenth to third with a 4-2 win at YTFIB. Julian’s good start looked set to continue when Hwang Hee-Chan and Bobby Decordova-Reid scored within a minute of each other to put him two up. Early cleans from Oleksandr Zinchenko and Destiny Udogie put Ian level and two more cleans, from Pedro Porro and Ashley Young, delivered the win. A late, late  Muppets comeback against Trusted gave Ryan the point to see him in fifth. Three goals in 12 minutes saw Beef’s team in total control. Cole Palmer from the spot and then Alexander Isak found himself unmarked twice to finish from close range. With the Muppets 3-0 down in injury time, up stepped Scott McTominay who scored twice and then James Tarkowski found the equalising clean.

The Wateringhole also have 11 points after a 1-1 draw with San Dimas. Simon Adingra capitalised on an early San Dimas error to give the Society a lead on 20 minutes but a Tyrick Mitchell clean delivered me a point. Cheese Makers also got a 1-1 draw in a result that sees Nil Satis pick up their first point this season. James Garner fired Paul S ahead on eight minutes, Matthew’s equaliser was an early Rico Lewis clean. One more team on 11 points, Mega Bucks who were held 0-0 by Stanley and Gracie. Fred beat Wheel Madrid 4-1 to climb to tenth. Mohamed Salah scored twice in the last five minutes of the first half to put Fred ahead but an unlucky Wes Foderingham own goal with 14 minutes left gave Paul W some hope. That was snuffed out thank to cleans from Murillo and Cristian Romero.
