Continuing on with the League now, and the Clarets where back on home soil for the visit of Alexandria FC. 1000 eager fans welcomed both sets of teams onto the pitch, the board seemingly repented on the ticket prices increases and the fans trust applauds the effort and the Clarets are back in full numbers and in full voice. A flawless start to the season for them, put them joint top with 6 points and not a single goal conceded. Alexandria FC where adjudged to be the minnows of the league coming into this season with few bookies offering them any hope of survival as their average rating is 18.4, a considerable difference compared to the other teams in the division. However, football is a strange game, and the Clarets would need to be careful here to avoid an embarrassing turn of events.

The game started pretty much as the fans would have expected, with the Clarets having plenty of the ball, and the Alexandrian players chasing shadows. It continued in this vain for 10 minutes until Promut made a silly foul on Brendhal and got himself put into the referres notebook, a yellow card this time. Sadly for Brendhal, this would end his game, with the fall from the challenge injuring him and forcing him off on a stretcher. An ovation from the Claret fans greeted his exit, you don't like to see a player injured so early on.

Continue the repeat of the opening 10 mins, with the Clarets retaining 70% of possesion plus at the best of the game, they sought to make this advantage count. On 25 minutes, Schmidt tried a speculative effort from 35 yards, to everyone's amazement, and his own, it found the top corner with the keeper off his line. 1-0 to the Clarets in world class style, that's 2 goals in 2 games for the veteran winger, who looks to be replaced by Jamie, who is after recovering from his injury. This may sway the managers mind a bit, mind.

No events to report between the 25th and 45h minute as the Clarets where comfortable to play the ball around, making the opposing players tire as they chased a seemingly endless passing pattern. 1-0 to the hosts at half time, everything going according to plan.

The manager decided on a change at half time, with Bourguinon coming off to be replaced by Suarez up front in a slighty more offensive 4-4-2 formation. A signal of intent, this game was not over by any means. Alexandria proved as much on 50 minutes when Salinas cut the United defence apart with a sublime solo run, passing 3 players, rounding the keeper, and cooly slotting home to make it 1-1. A sniff of a result beckoned for the Alexandrian's who rarely had a chance in the game as a whole.

However, a piece of sloppy defending would cost them the game, when on 55 minutes a reckless lunge on Suarez was adjudged to be a foul, and the Clarets where awarded a free kick just outside the area. The player in question, Jamal, was booked for this incident. It was left to Johnson, who, in what is becoming a trademark of his, fired around the wall and into the top corner, the keeper left stunned and fuming at his wall. Truth be told, even without the wall, it was unlikely he would have gotten to it.

It stayed like that until the whistle, the Clarets comfortably through another game, 3 wins in the League on the bounce now, a result which sees them top of the table on 9 points, 2 ahead of AC Milan in the early punches.

Final Result: Fusion United 2 - 0 Alexandria FC
