Desert Rats FC struggled to overcome their -24%Q opponent in their League match yesterday, wingers Thomas Arvehed and Oliver Schenkel scoring one each in a three minute period just before the hour mark, but the hosts got one back and made the last 19 minutes of play very uncomfortable for the Rats Management. The struggles continued against a -7%Q team in the 1st Leg of the Round of 32 in the Cup, Desert Rats going down 0-1 to a 52nd minute goal by the home side.

Today the matches were a little easier on the heart, a -19%Q team dispatched 4-0 with goals from the wingers again, the third goal in a purple patch for central defender John van Hintum and a final goal from striker Luis Moules. The striker also managed a brace in another away trip, this time in the Champions League against a team with +1%Q over the Rats, who ran out 2-0 victors to keep themselves at the top of the Group.
