Season 88 - Are you ready?

[talisman]

Desert Rats FC were at home in their Round 2 Champions League Group match, and were 6Q/24% better than their visitors. Playing Narrow Diamond versus Defensive Hexagon (3N-2DMW-3N-2), orders were mixed passing through the middle, and the Rats took their opponents apart. Striker Julien Renard helped himself to a hat-trick before half-time, and was rested for most of the second-half, his 10 rating and Man-of-the-Match award sewn up. Matt Goggin and Rodrigo Gimenez contributed a direct free-kick each as the hosts led 5-0 at the break. AMC Simon Hunt (1 goal, 2 assists), left-back Alberto Casado and central defender Filip Andersson were the stand-out men in the second-half, and the Rats ran out 8-0 winners. The only blot on the landscape was another injury, this time to central midfielder Glenn Seynaeve. Desert Rats now lead their Champions League Group on goal difference.
