Day 28 - Palace Terriers report.

Palace Terriers played their second Association Final matches today. Early doors there was an away match against a slightly poorer-Quality team, and Terriers had to use the Butterfly formation against a 3W-5-2V, meaning that Esneider Gil played DML and veteran 4* ST/AML Samir Gross was wheeled out to play AML. He took full advantage of the opportunity, scoring all the goals in a 4-0 demolition of their opponent.

It was obviously Gross' day, as he came on as a substitute in Terriers League match at home against the 10th place team, and scored the third goal in a 4-0 win which confirms Terriers' 4th place finish this season. Ronaldo Pigatto Baratto and Esneider Gil scored in the first half, and Marcelo Julio Cavalcanti da Silva added the last goal late on.



In the reverse Association Final match, the Terriers Management decided to leave the team as it was for the first match, and a 6-0 win resulted. Gross and Pigatto Baratto each bagged a brace, the other goals coming from Luca Giovanni Pidutti and Francesco Largou. The other matches weren't as easy for Terriers' fellow Association members, but they produced a better all-round performance against a 6* opponent, going down 13 points to 19 for their second Association Runner-Up trophy.
