Home Guard FC started their Champions League competition with a 2-1 away win over an equally-rated team, Brice Morel and Ellis Wardell the scorers before the home side got a late consolation.

Home Guard are among top rated teams in their League, and are looking forward to a more competitive League season this time round. There are a couple of abandoned-looking teams also, so prospects of some goal-difference boosts - or Troll results.

Home Guard opened their League campaign with a home match against one of the abandoned teams, the three subs and four of the starting XI being 34yo players with no previous season matches. Ellis Wardell got an early brace in before Alejandro Pusineri became the Guard's first injury victim of the season - the medical report listed a concussion and he will be back in action again tomorrow. The visitors pulled a goal back late in the first half; Brice Morel, Firat Yoldas and Hudson Mendes Ribeiro scored in the second-half to give Home Guard a convincing 5-1 win.
