Real not doing good in the league morphed into the Fadron Pizza Cup as they fell to perennial trophy contenders Mt Ceabring. The Thunder won behind a brace from star forward, and national teamer Farley Baines in their home leg. Matchup two saw Mierton take down Bayern Phoenix behind an impressive debut performance from Leonidas Bregoo, recently bought from Astograth on the cheap. Bregoo managed a goal on the road and at home to help Mierton defeat the Phoenix. In the third matchup now lower Division Los Riosa managed to dispatch fellow low division team Norhammer. In the fourth matchup Yaton took down Moresville in a 10 goal thriller of a series, behind a 4 goals from their new forward Forrest Benson. Sleepy Hollow managed to show its continued impressive team with an easy dispatch of second division St Cloud. Atlantea showed their bad form in a bad attempt to dispatch second division 3.14 ultimately getting through on an own goal from their opposition. In a shocking matchup lower division Rapids knocked out top 10 side 1093 de Atlantea with an impressive road win, shocking the top Atlantea side. Finally second division Ying Jing gave top five Bayern-Algaer a push for their spot in the next round, ultimately a goal from Ignatius Thaddeus was the difference.
In the next round the matchups will be Yaton vs Rapids. A old fashioned tilt between Bayern-Algaer and Mt ceabring, two old rivals of the Cup. First time relegated Los Riosa will get an interesting matchup with all time championship winners Atlantea Hurricanes. And Noueveau Riche Mierton meets fellow rising star Sleepy Hollow in an epic tilt.
