Half-way point in the League season, and Desert Rats FC are three points clear at the top of the table. Today they had a good win over the 8th place team and followed this up with an away draw in the 1st Leg of the Champions League Round of 16 against a +4%Q team, a difference that widened considerably when bookings and injury forced the Management to substitute the victims with lower Quality replacements.





Nouvion FC have a slight advantage in their Champions League tie, two late goals giving them a 3-2 win away. They are desperately trying to keep up with the leaders in the League, and have an early chance at the beginning of the return half of the League fixtures with a visit to the leaders.

Desert Rats FC have had three wins out of three matches in the past two days, also three injuries, one in each match. It seems the Rats are the victim of the injury epidemic which struck their junior club Nouvion FC last season. 12 injuries so far this season, with three players suffering their second visit to the medical centre. The Management hopes for a quick end to the malaise.

A good win over a mid-table team yesterday was followed by an really excellent one over their +8%Q Champions League opponents, two penalties from second-choice striker Konga Bako contributing to 3-0 win and a 4-1 aggregate score. This evening's League match against the 13th-place -42%Q visitors was a struggle from start to finish, Raphael O'Balogun breaking the deadlock four minutes after the break.



Nouvion FC fell further back in the race for the League Championship with a 0-2 defeat at the League leaders yesterday, but bounced back with a win by the same scoreline in today's match. Another struggle over a -25%Q opponent in the Champions League match three hours later saw a set piece from free-kick taking defender Rune Beck finally break the visitors resistance, Nouvion winning 1-0 for a 4-2 aggregate score.

Nouvion FC went a small step to securing a Cup Final berth with a 1-0 home win over a -4%Q side in the 1st Leg of the Semi-Final; then went away to 6th in the League where a hat-trick from right-winger Jose Libman gave them all three points.

Guys why is it I suddenly have a 3 game losing streak. I have a good formation that has served me well and my players have been trained rested and are in good morale and yet I keep losing to teams lower rated than me. Why???

Hmm plenty of reasons why we can lose a match or 3 in a row so its hard to pinpoint the exact cause. Hope alls well and your team is back on track!

Desert Rats FC have had some difficult League matches in the past couple of days. Yesterday they struggled to a 3-2 win over the -16%Q 6th place team, and today the 5th place team, 10%Q poorer, held them to a 0-0 draw and thus their lead in the League was trimmed to 3 points. In the Champions League today, they met a friend in an age-old rivalry and, starting -10%Q on their opponent, lost 1-2. At least the Rats have an away goal to carry forward, much good may it do them...





Nouvion FC are sweeping all before them at the moment, and they will need to in the League if they have any chance on overturning the 10 point advantage that the leaders have on them. In the Champions League, they put a tentative foot in the Semi-Finals with a 3-1 away win in their Quarter-Final 1st Leg match. A triplet of braces in the evening League match, the strike force registering one each as Nouvion scored seven against their hapless opponents...
