Season 91 - Are you ready?

[talisman]

The Desert Rats FC Management rolled out his latest weapon in the fight against higher-Quality +1 Level teams in the Champions League, and the Rats shaded the home Quarter-Final 1st Leg by a single goal to give them a fighting chance of a Semi-Final berth. Midfielder Mukhtar Hassan turned in a Kostadin Marinov cross in the 25th minute to give Desert Rats a 1-0 win.

The league match of the day saw Desert Rats at home to 3rd place, and after a good start, struggled in the mid-match, but rallied to overcome a stubborn opponent with a 3-2 win. Kostadin Marinov and Charlie Howell put the hosts ahead 2-0 by the 32nd minute, but the visitors scored a goal each side of the break to level the match. With 14 minutes to go, Mukhtar Hassan repaid the favour from the earlier match, supplying Marinov a cross which he deflected into the net to score the winner for Desert Rats.

Another name-check today, as central defender Blagovest Metodiev played his 100th match for the Rats.
