Season 81 - Are you ready?

Day 4 - Palace teams report.

Both teams made late signings last night, Casuals picked a Scout list MC after being beaten out of several attempts at purchasing one in the Transfer Market, Alexandre Aldano being released as a result.



Palace Terriers Management made the discovery that they are short of an AMC now that Nikolay Radev had been released, so a quick visit to the Transfer Market quickly bore fruit. The player concerned will also make a good backup for left winger Esneider Gil.



Terriers signing last night was ominously prescient - In their League match today, Esneider Gil was injured, but central midfielder Marcelo Julio Cavalcanti da Silva was given the nod by Nordeus in the absence of the Management, otherwise occupied. Playing at home against a weaker League side, Terriers on auto-pilot coasted to a 3-1 win, Lyuben Dzhorev, Luca Giovanni Pidutti and Ahmed Moawad the scorers.



Palace Casuals played away in the 1st Leg of their Qualifying Round Cup match, and did all their work in the first half, Jack Auger and Maarten Wiegman scored the first two, Thiago de Souza Lacerda adding his debut goal in a 3-1 win.



Palace Casuals went back to League duty at home, and found a low-Quality opponent in resilient mood in the first half. Having seen all the wide crosses from the wingers in his 4-5-1V formation perish on the head of the centre defender in the 3W defensive line of the opposition, the Casuals Management made the decision to change to 4-1-3N-2 and attack through the middle in the second half. That did the trick, and the home side ran in 5 goals without reply, Maarten Wiegman (2), Thiago de Souza Lacerda, substitute Nikolay Levterov and Oystein Pedersen, debut goal, scoring.



Palace Terriers continued their League competition at home in the Qualifying Round 1st Leg, and did enough to ensure progression to the next round. Playing with a moderate Quality advantage, Terriers gave a debut to Hairil Zamri Ahmad Muzafar in place of the injured Esneider Gil and he turned in a superb 10-rated MoM performance, scoring 4 goals in a 7-0 win. Luca Giovanni Pidutti bagged a brace and left-back Kazuka Takao scored a debut goal.
