Palace teams report, Wednesday...
Palace Terriers kicked off the day's matches with a mid-afternoon match away, and crept past the finishing post with a 1-0 win, right-back Rui Pinhal curling a free-kick into the net in the 4th minute for the only goal of the game.
Desert Rats FC followed up with a tea-time home game against 5th in the table, and failed to take the opportunity to stretch the points gap between the two sides as the match ended in a 2-2 deadlock. Both the strikers got on the score sheet, Albert O'Toole opening the scoring in the 27th minute, and after the visitors had scored twice in the second half to lead in the game, Lorcan Ivory produced an equaliser seven minutes from time.
Palace Casuals played an evening bottom-of-the-table clash at home, and won 2-0. Johan Shaqiri kept up his recent rich form with the first goal, and Mario Dinamarca added a goal of his own to his assist of the first goal.
