Day 15 - Palace teams report (part 1).
Palace Casuals went away to the League leaders and efficiently confirmed their team name, inflicting upon them their first League defeat of the season. Central defender Itzik Azriel showed the forward line what to do in the 20th minute, and Mario Dinamarca demonstrated his scoring boots 14 minutes later. 5 minutes into the second half, new striker Massimiliano Gerini got his debut goal, before midfielder Felipe de Vasconcelos Leite replied to a goal by the home side with 17 minutes left.
Midfielder Mustapha Haouli made his 100th appearance in this match...
Palace Terriers played the away 1st Leg of their Champions League 'Top-16' round and all but booked their trip to the Quarter-Finals with a clinical win. Striker Bruno Linares book-ended the scoring for his brace, midfielder Christian Narvaez getting the second and right-winger Declan McGranaghan proving his return to fitness after injury by scoring the other goal.
PS: It puzzles me how a team this poor actually got out of the Group stage - that is a genuine 80-20 possession. Also one for Gert Funck's 'Double Yellow' Record. This ones a 'double double yellow'!

Im out of the cup, I messed up after being tied 1-1 after the 1st half, I should have parked the bus but I made a poor sub and he scored 2 quick goals dashing my cup hopes. Oh well, happy that I made it this far with 10 new players.

Phoenix United have now gone 20 games unbeaten! Since our one single loss to the team at the top of the table with no losses beat me I have gone unbeaten.
Still, can't win the league if he doesn't lose!
Champions League match played at 05:35 finished 0-3 away with Escobar scoring 2 and Soubervie.
Phoenix proved their metle against a stronger team. Taking away 3 points thanks to a Tebily freekick. Now 2nd for the time being.
