A setback for the Artisans with a 4-2 defeat to Claymore this week. After giving away a goal within a minute to Mateus Fernandes, Ben’s team recovered to lead 2-1 at the break thanks to goals from Emile Smith Rowe and Jarrod Bowen. Straight after the break however Nick Woltemade steered a perfectly-placed header into his own net for the equaliser and Clive went on to win from there with a Matheus Cunha strike and a Reinildo Mandava clean. The Wateringhole Society have closed to within two points after a huge 6-1 win over Trusted. There was a first minute goal here too, Hugo Ekitike putting Kiran in front, and then a Kostantinos Mavrapanos own goal doubled the lead inside nine minutes. Beef did hit back through Cole Palmer but Callum Hudon-Odoi and Malo Gusto made it 4-1 by the interval. Second-half goals from Hudson-Odoi and Ekitike put their team within striking distance of top spot.

Reigning champs the Muppets aren’t far off either after beating GC TotW 4-3. Amad Diallo nodded Ryan ahead practically on the line on 13 minutes and Erling Haaland added a second four minutes before the break. Phil Foden and Haaland (again) added goals in the second half and while Bruno Fernandes found a brilliant free-kick for Ollie in reply two clean sheets weren’t enough to grab a point. San Dimas put the brakes on SGU’s recent good run in a 1-1 draw. Harry Wilson scored another excellent goal to put Aaron ahead, Josko Gvardiol’s clean got me a point.

The Aardvarks are fifth after a 3-1 victory at YTFIB. Julian led through Antoine Semenyo but it all turned round after the break. Morgan Rogers and Marcus Tavernier scored within three minutes of each other to put the Aardvarks in front and Rogers added the third from distance. The CFJs drop to seventh after a goalless draw at Wheel Madrid.

It was goalless too for Markian and Nil Satis. Both teams seemingly stuck in mid-table. Along with Cheese Makers and Mega Bucks who drew 1-1. Casemiro’s first-half injury time header put Matthew in front, Evanilson equalised for Dave in the first minute of the second period. And that was that.
