DREAMPLANET SUPERCUP - SUPERTAÇA DREAMPLANET SEASON 4 (2003-2004)
There are many clubs in Libon, Sporting CD being the biggest Libon club, however they weren't in this as they had been eliminated on a shock away goal loss to Santa Clara, Libon United had beaten Real Island CD, a fallen giant of Dreamplanetian football since Rodrigo Vaz left, and FC Libon had won the league the season before, profiting from an underperforming Sporting CD.
Both teams had been going at it in the league and it was no different in this match, both teams knew eachother very well and knew their flaws, Libon United went 2-0 up from goals by Miguel Costa and Xavier Silva after FC Libon looked shellshocked.
However the tide started to turn as Libon United got complacent, Aaron Hungar quickly gave a 3-2 lead to FC Libon, and when the title looked FC Libon’s, Xavier Silva got a penalty in the 86th minute, Jorge Cardoso got a red card for picking a fight with Xavier and his teammates.
In extra-time, FC Libon substitute Pedro Andrade headed one in from the corner early on, however Libon United were not able to get an equaliser, and FC Libon started the season with a trophy and optimism.
DREAMPLANET LEAGUE - LIGA DREAMPLANET SEASON 4 (2003-2004) - CONCLUSION
Before the 2002-03 season, the Dreamplanet FA announced that the Second Division was going to be merged with the first division for the 2003-04 season, and so relegation and promotions weren't achievable, however they ended up picking only the Top 2 from the previous edition, expanding the league to 18 clubs, however the other clubs from the 2nd division still play in the cup.
Coerefente won their first ever league title, prior to this shock win they were Cygnus Cup Winners Cup regulars and did well in the cup alongside having a couple of internationals on the team and if their win wasn't a shock in Dreamplanetian football already, they beat FC Libon on Goal Distance, scoring 17 more goals than FC Libon. It will be interesting to see how Coerefente do up against the big boys as they carry the flag for Dreamplanet alongside FC Libon in their inaugural Campionato Esportivano di Campeones appearance.

DREAMPLANET CUP - TAÇA DREAMPLANET SEASON 4 FINAL REVIEW (2003-2004)
Mortinenses CD 0-2 FC LIBON
Mortinenses were seen as the no-hopers coming into the tournament, as they are a mid-table team they were not expected go far but picked up easy teams and heading into the final rounds they missed the "sharks" and got a straight-forward path to the final. FC Libon had eliminated the likes of Coerefente, who went on to win the league, and Linderton FC, who eliminated Sporting CD in one of the biggest shocks of the tournament, to reach the final.
FC Libon were actually shut out by Mortinenses for the first 45 minutes, who were more than holding their own as they had a penalty in the 29th minute but FC Libon veteran goalkeeper, Rafael dos Bosques, guessed right and saved Rui Guedes’ penalty. FC Libon’s goal came in the 51st minute as Jorge Cardoso headed it in after a post-corner scramble in the box.
Mortinenses came back firing, forcing Rafael Dos Bosques to make vital saves to keep his team in the lead, but eventually the breakthrough came after a counter-attack as a bad pass from Antonio Sousa was cut out and just when the ball came to Aaron Hungar, the contesting defender got a hand to it, Aaron Hungar scored from a superb free kick in the 80th minute and secured a cup win against a hard-fighting Mortinenses.
