Season 76 - Are you ready?

Day 2 - Palace Casuals report - plus!

Palace Terriers made another trip to the transfer market and signed a replacement for Mehmet Can Kilickaya sold this morning - the TM is very quiet on Level 9 (lots of players but no takers), so another 1T ($9.12M) purchase at a considerable discount from market value.



Palace Casuals signed a replacement for recently retired Mirco Kaminski, and at the same time filled a hole in their positional line-up. A bit more activity in the Level 28 market, so 4T/$107M was shelled out on this player.



The new left-back was immediately installed in the team for the Cup Preliminary Round 2nd Leg match and Palace Casuals had the unaccustomed luxury of a comfortable aggregate victory in a Cup tie. DMC Kiril Rusev opened the scoring and five minutes of dominance later on in the first half produced two more goals, an individual effort by striker Massimiliano Gerini and a more conventional pass/header from the two wingers, Andy Bayunu claiming the goal, Martin Kozak the assist. The home side got back into the match with their own five minutes early in the second half, but after the second goal, Casuals made a midfield substitution and shut up shop at the back to prevent any further encroachment. Final score 3-2 to the visitors, Palace Casuals progress 6-3 on aggregate.



With his substitute appearance at this match, central midfielder Felipe de Vasconcelos Leite registered his 50th time in a blue and red shirt.
