    Palace teams report for Sunday...

    Casuals started out with a Cup Semi-Final match and lost at home 0-2. Team of comparable quality, but home and presence possession advantage counted for nothing. Winners in all Stats categories, after an early scare, dominated the game. Usual story, everything we tried came to nothing, opponent had three other shots on target and scored from two of them. Hoping for a better rub of the green in the away leg. League game at home against team one place higher, ground out a 2-2 draw, with Cashman and Kamal providing the goals. Casuals still fourth, but with the teams in the three non-CL promotion slots fighting it out amongst themselves, the gap has grown to five points...

    Terriers had a Cup Semi-Final at home, too, but had a much better result against a team of slightly lower quality but had most of it in their starting XI. Scornaienchi and a brace from van der Plas were enough for a 3-0 win and a big step into the Final. Terriers made it nine wins out of the last eleven League games and took second place after a good 5-0 win over the basement club. Defender Scornaienchi got on the score sheet again, and the midfield contributed the rest, a brace from Kadlec, and one each from Moran and Masegela. With their current form and a round-robin of matches between them and the current third- and fourth-placed teams in the next three days, and a runaway League leader, the top of the table is going to be all-but settled soon...

    Desert Rats FC visited the League leaders and came away with an unexpected and creditable 2-2 draw, but dropped a place to 6th as others around them won. Midfielder Attenborough scored one in each half, the second one coming just minutes before the end of the match.
