CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2035-36 FULL REVIEW

AC Pomena has returned to the top of the Juven footballing world with a banger, winning with an 8-point lead over their biggest rivals U.S Scudelli and also dusting FC Piluzzi and AS Aguajú in the process. Offensively sound, defensively better than usual, that team was extraordinary throught the entirety of the season. FC Piluzzi's investments have finally started to pay off while Los Amazones remain on the safe spot of IFCF matches and glory, but will have to pop off greatly next season. A huge upset this season was Cordoba FC's rise to the top 5 of the leaderboard, finishing just 1 point behind AS Aguajú and IFCF competitions for the second season straight. This would mark yet another season AC Pomena would be outscored by competition however, yet another upset and perhaps evidence of the game's transition towards more attacking play by other teams while AC Pomena is becoming more defensive and sturdy.

On the other side of the scoreboard, InterSe's flirting with relegation has finally turned into an actual relegation while FC Herone would turn from miracle-makers into a disastrous relegation side in the season. FC Demene will follow them suit and as such this marks the first season that neither of the newly-promoted teams get relegated as USdC Catena would clinch safety with 2 matchdays at hand.

This season also marked the first time the league would be broadcasted multiverse-wide instead of just in the Juvenosphere. Be sure to tune in for more exciting seasons of the Juven Campionato ahead of time.

COPA JUVE BONERE REVIEW

The whole entire season would turn out to be filled with massive upsets left and right, with second division teams defeating several of the giants of Juven football along the way. Including a surprise group stage exit by repeat winners AC Picilia. USC Cuori had a dream run to the semi-finals, only to have its dreams crushed by AC Pomena after a very hard-fought game which ended in a 9-goal scoreline in the end. Perhaps the best match played in Juven soil all year long.

FINAL

And as if winning the league was not enough, the Uhlaners also managed to win the Copa Juve comfortably, thus completing yet another domestic club to showcase their dominance. In simple words, AC Pomena is back.

AC Pomena 3–0 Herona Calcio
@ Alcazar Stadium, Cordoba

SUPERCOPA JUVE

Everyone thought this game would be going to U.S Scudelli's favor, seeing their form on the league as well as internationally, however this was not meant to be as AC Picilia would be thrashing them with extreme comfort 3 goals to nil. AC Picilia's second supercopa victory coupled with AC Pomena's double has guaranteed them a spot in next year's Supercopa.

U.S Scudelli 0–3 AC Picilia
@ Vinceti Catedral, Vinceti

SERIE B

Yet another exciting and unpredictable season of the Serie B was played this season and we have the first Qurijan team to take a trophy back home and to be promoted into the Campionato. Petro Mohammed FC showed extreme prowess and won the league by a comfortable margin, they were followed by Dortimao FC which learnt from its past mistakes as we as Toro Calcio.

IFCF AND FFI MATCHES

Due to time and space constraints, there will be a short overview with some highlights from the teams' performances in international club competitions.

For the IFCF competitions, only U.S Scudelli managed to get into the group stages of any competition, landing a spot in the groups stages of the Challengers Cup. There, despite showing extreme tenacity against all competition, the team ended with 1 win, 1 loss and 4 draws and finished 3rd. That way it got a spot in the knockouts of the Associations Trophy, on which they had an excellent run to the semi-finals by defeating Hibernus of Oberour Ar Moro, demolishing Myana of the prestigious Chromatik league at home in the round of 16 as well as getting past the challenge brought by Lisander's AC Kasandora. They would fail to get past New Gelderland's Celtic Noviodunum in the semi final however, despite strong resistance.

In the FFI competitions, due to virtue of AS Aguajú's League of Victors win the season prior, Juven teams had 3 representatives instead of the usual 2 for the competition. While U.S Scudelli and FC Herone would fall really early on in the round of 16, AS Aguajú would nearly get a chance to defend its trophy with a gorgeous run all the way to the semi-finals of the competition. AC Pomena on the other hand was the sole representative of Juvencus in the Confederations' Trophy with a run all the way to the quarter-finals of the competition.

IFCF Champions Cup: AC Pomena
IFCF Challengers Cup: U.S Scudelli, FC Piluzzi, AS Aguajú

CAMPIONATO D'OSCIORU SEASON 2035-36

Unpredictability continues to be the pattern of the Osci Campionato's trajectory, as Club Catolica managed to have a complete makeover from last season and make it to the top of the table, winning one of the tightest league seasons of all time with just 1 point splitting them and second place Universidad de Dronghi and 2 from Calderon FC who were sitting in third.

Internationally, Osci clubs once again excellented in FFI competitions, with Canzaria FC managing to get all the way to the final of the competition, beating reigning champions from Juvencus AS Aguajú along the way. They would fall short on the last hurdle however, as they would be defeated in the final by Fiskadaha FC from Poafmersia. Worse yet, they would finish just 3 points off of IFCF competition qualification and 5 behind a spot at an FFI competition this season.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2036-37 REVIEW

With the biggest season ever in terms of revenue and viewership ever now past us, the Juven Football Association, combined with Banca Toro and other sponsors will be looking to yield even better results and have as a result of the increased revenues have increased the transfer caps for more crazy transfers and to give chances to small clubs to improve and also bigger ones to try and establish a hegemony. International TV rights were secured long-term as has foreign investment.

No structural changes have been announced for this season.

Club: Toro Calcio
Nickname: I Gladiatori
Manager: Clara Espinosa(Age 57)
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Ground: Torre di Toro, Torona(Capacity: 26,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★ Reputation:★★★★ Youth team:★★
Sponsor: Armatori Uomiti(Clothing brand)
Rivals: USC Toro(Main and city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Created by internal immigrant factory workers in Torona in the late 19th century, Toro Calcio is one of the oldest sports clubs in the nation as a whole and one whose whole image, identity and purpose is centered around its unifying properties in its region as a whole. While never the strongest team, it always attracted the largest number of fans due to it being accepting of both French and Italian-speaking people and also served as an outlet to get rid of any negativity that was afflicting post-Unification War industrial workers, especially in a place as affected as Torona had been.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 3rd. A promotion after a few difficult seasons in the bottom-flight see a completely different Toro Calcio return to the top division.

Club: Dortimao FC
Nickname: Os Soldados Tropicais
Manager: Carlos Silveira(Age 55)
Formation: 4-4-1-1
Ground: Ninho do Dragão, Pacgliari(Capacity: 22,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★ Reputation:★★★ Youth team:★★★
Sponsor: Margarita's Symposium(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: S.S.C Pacglari(City)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Dortimao FC was founded in the early stages of the 20th century by Osci and Juven veterans of war in Al Qurija. It was always a team playing in local leagues and lower divisions without major achievements. S.S.C Pacgliari managed to get their spot with the creation of the Campionato, which is something the club is still complaining about.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 2nd. Dortimao proved that the relegation two seasons ago was a fluke and will be looking to consolidate its position in the top league with its new possession-based style.

Club: Petro Mohammed FC
Nickname: al-Shuyukh
Manager: Salvio Bandera(Age 45)
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Ground: Petro Mohammed Stadium, City of Qurija, Qurija(Capacity: 98,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★★ Reputation:★★★★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Margarita's Symposium(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: Cordoba FC(cultural)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Professional football in Al Qurija is a novelty, considering the national team itself is older than the prevalence of professional football in the country. However, the club was created by several Petro Mohammed(Qurijan national hero) sympathisers in the 1920's and played in local semi-professional leagues for a while.
Last season's finish: Serie B Champions! Petro Mohammed FC's appearance at the first flight marks the first apperance of a Qurijan team in the Campionato. Salvio Bandera and the board have taken some serious transfers into consideration.

Club: USdC Catena
Nickname: Le bestie incatenate
Manager: Maurizio Delfons(Age 46)
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Ground: Ipiti Stadium, Catena Chained City Union(Capacity: 14,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★ Reputation:★★★★ Youth team:★★★★★
Sponsor: Vurudu(Supermarket & Hypermarket Chain)
Rivals: AC Pomena(city), U.S Remeno(city), Porcara FC(city), AC Guillermont(city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Catena's known as an urban sprawl of smaller cities surrounding Pomena southwest side. The team was founded by the locals to find a means of staying united, avoiding to be absorbed by Pomena and to of course have a representation for the city union.
Last season's finish: 17th. The chained city's team will be in major danger, considering the narrow avoidance of relegation last season.

Club: S.S.C Vilan
Nickname: Gli Agricoltori
Manager: Emmanuel Cabaret(Age 59)
Formation: 4-4-2
Ground: Stadio de la Santa Cantarina, Vilan(Capacity:26,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★ Reputation:★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Loyola Enterprise(Food & drinks)
Rivals: None, yet universally despised
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: S.S.C Vilan was originally known as AgroVilan, as it was created as a sports association for farmers in the extremely fertile side of Pomena valley around Vilan and the Concordo river. This has given a very villager-like reputation to the team nationwide, not indicative of its pre-modern era dominance. The team is also known to be over-reliant on youth products and not normally looking elsewhere and especially abroad for too many of their transfers.
Last season's finish: 16th. S.S.C Vilan is not known for being anywhere else but the bottom of the table. With the current youth drain in the team and all its talent leaving for better teams elsewhere, the team is in serious danger.

Club: USC Toro
Nickname: Gli Tauri
Manager: Cesare Marlos(Age 42)
Formation: 4-3-3
Ground: Torre di Toro, Torona(Capacity: 26,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★ Reputation:★★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: AquaToro(Beverages, Investment & Gaming)
Rivals: Toro Calcio(main and city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Team created by royalists of Torona as a representation of them as a minority at the time of the team's creation. Eventually more and more people started to support in the city after its successes in the footballing antiquity of Juvencus. Despite the initial setback of AquaToro's newest franchise, an instant rise back to the Campionato will see the team fighting to see itself back at the top of Juvencus.
Last season's finish: 15th. Proving once again why they are one of the most inconsistent teams in the whole competition. USC Toro are an unpredictable side for yet another season

Club: Picgliara Calcio
Nickname: I Sagittari
Manager: Andriano Copi(Age 54)
Formation: 5-2-3
Ground: Stadio Compagna, Scudelli(Capacity: 37,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★ Reputation:★★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Lerosa TV(Television channel)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(city), FC Piluzzi(city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Rare tropical Wine-producing fields in Scudelli attracted a lot of farmers from all over the nation and as the years passed by, Scudelli's wine-makers decided to make their own representative side. While not known for talented players or success, hard work and a very morale-destroying defensive playing, the hardest to get past in the nation have been enough to give the side its well-deserved notoriety.
Last season's finish: 14th. The team went from one of the biggest world-beaters in the nation to fighting to avoid relegation and barely avoiding it in the process. While last season was an improvement, the nation's most defensive team will have to do a lot of explaining.

Club: S.S.C Tipoli
Nickname: Los Jaguares
Manager: Antoine De Juste(Age 49)
Formation: 4-3-3
Ground: Il Metropolitano, Tipoli(Capacity: 40,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★★ Reputation:★★★ Youth team:★★★
Sponsor: The Wharf(Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: None, yet every maritime club of the west
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: A team made by dockyard workers in the harbour of Tipoli that slowly came to represent the city. Historically one of the strongest sides of the league and this has gone on in the modern era, despite some hiccups here and there. Everything maritime related is the club's joy and the club management shows a lot of support for every maritime trade treaty there is out there, especially ones that benefit the city of Tipoli.
Last season's finish: 13th. The game of football is cruel and Los Jaguares were one of the bigger teams that got affected by such cruelty. Although known to yo-yo around the leaderboard, S.S.C Tipoli had a terrible season for its standards last season as well. But trust in De Juste still remains, surprisingly.

Club: AC Trata
Nickname: i Caroneri
Manager: Manuel Zangari(Age 53)
Formation: 4-4-2
Ground: L'Aranconetta, Trata(Capacity: 16,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★ Reputation:★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Serviggieri Motors(Vehicles)
Rivals: AC Guillermont(main)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: AC Trata was founded in the 1920s by a powerful mafiosi family centered in the area. After they were expelled to Montagnaverde, the rights were passed to Serviggieri Motors, a big motorcycle company closely affiliated to them. The support from the fanbase is unreal, but they obviously have a terrible reputation both for being anti-monarchist and for the affiliations to the nation-degenerating mafia.
Last season's finish: 12th. Zangari's tactics have led the mob-led club to a solid mid-table presence for yet another season. However, will they prove enough this season as well?

Club: S.S.C Pacgliari
Nickname: Os Unidos
Manager: Ricardo Ramires(Age 57)
Formation: 4-4-2
Ground: Estádio da Concepção, Pacgliari(Capacity: 17,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★ Reputation:★★★★★ Youth team:★★
Sponsor: Alva(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: Dortimao FC(City)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Originally a team consisting of unionist military veterans from the second great war of unification, the team has been dubbed as Os Unidos for that reason and for being a unifying factor between the large chasm of all the new classes of the infant nation that Juvencus was at the time of the team's creation. Not necessarily a powerful team always, but sometimes it was definitely up there causing massive upsets.
Last season's finish: 11th. Ricardo Ramires seems to be leading a necessary change for the team and they have comfortably avoided relegation this time, however the issue at hand remains with a mid-table finish.

Club: AC Picilia
Nickname: La Cuore
Manager: Nestor Chryasor(Age 53)
Formation: 4-2-3-1
Ground: Stadio di San Valentino, Cuori(Capacity: 40,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★ Reputation:★★★ Youth team:★★★
Sponsor: Apolloniata(Clothing brand)
Rivals: FC Demene(main)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 2 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: The unity of Cuori caravan owners, AC Picilia is one of the very few representatives of the desert and as such, have a huge following in the entirety of the desert, being its only major team. Other than that, a very big fixation with love has been a theme of all club owners for an irrelevant reason, not knowing where that could come from.
Last season's finish: 10th. No three-peat in the Copa but a win in the Supercopa proved to be enough for the team despite a dwindled performance in the league.

Club: AC Serone
Nickname: I Revodesi
Manager: Jules Cannavaro(Age 38)
Formation: 3-4-3
Ground: Il Porto, Serone(Capacity: 40,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★★ Reputation:★★★★★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Oblisteria(Entertainment)
Rivals: Internazionale Serone(city), AC Pomena(main)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 2 Campionato Juvencus
Background: The very first team to be founded in Serone and one of the first in the nation to be founded in general after Quebecois merchants brought the sport to the nation in the late 19th century. It was initially founded, supposedely, for the representation of everyone in Serone. Truth be told it was very much beneficial to merchants and traders than other classes of the city which led to the creation of the rival side, Internazionale Serone just 2 months after. AC Serone is historically a dominant club and one of the few to lift the Campionato more than once which gives their name a certain weight much above the rest of the clubs in the league and more on par with AC Pomena itself, despite being more overshadowed by its success.
Last season's finish: 9th. Club's undergoing the crisis that keeps on giving. Massive improvement compared to last season, but I Revodesi under the guidance of Jules Cannavaro will have to do way more work to prove their worth as one of the nation's elite once again.

Club: Herona Calcio
Nickname: Truppe del Deserto
Manager: Davide Aligheri(Age 57)
Formation: 4-3-3
Ground: Stadio Artemio Alberti, Herona(Capacity: 31,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★ Reputation:★★ Youth team:★★★
Sponsor: Planetta Oil(Oil company)
Rivals: FC Herone(main and city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: The Italian-language representative of Herona and not Herone, as the Italian-speaking fans will correct you very aggressively. Herona Calcio is one of the most politically-aligned teams in the nation, known to fund and support all far-right and italian-language nationalist parties of their region. While the team's ultras carry major fights, the team has always played a relatively offensive style of football even in the more defensive eras of Juven football. Not necessarily successful ever, they always follow their goals to have their ideals not just heard, but enforced, at least in their own side of the city, il Quartiere, as it's known. The new Stadio Artemio Alberti is the new temple of the team and opposing and neutral fans will DEFINITELY not be allowed unless the ultras of the club deem fit.
Last season's finish: 8th. Davide Aligheri has improved on the attack of the Truppe but a weak backline has been the bane of the club's inconsistent form on a season by season basis. A chase towards the IFCF spots is on the book regardless as is always the goal for the Heronese side.

Club: Odiol Vinceti
Nickname: Gli Oligarchi
Manager: Luciano Gacinovic(Age 55)
Formation: 4-5-1
Ground: Vinceti Catedral, Vinceti(Capacity: 53,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★★ Reputation:★★★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Odiol(Automobile & Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: U.S Remeno(secondary)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Originally found by shipyard workers as AC Vinceti, the side found limited, mild success without any major accolade of sorts. It mostly served as a representative of the eastern side of Juvencus and eventually saw all its stocks and holdings purchased by Odiol overnight. They gave the club a massive overhaul such as a new name and identity and gave it a strong budget(of over 200 million juven pesos) that it still has no idea how to use.
Last season's finish: 7th. Slightly better every time, yet without any silverware, Odiol's biggest sports investment in the nation is also proving to be its biggest liability and failure. A lack of vision and proper management unheard of for the company and Gacinovic's tactics coupled with lack of talent are leading the club to a dead end. They will be giving him another chance to prove his worth however.

Club: U.S Remeno
Nickname: Remeniotti Carabinieri
Manager: Kerrie Grant(Age 64)
Formation: 3-4-2-1
Ground: Nuovo Stadio della Popolazione, Remeno(Capacity: 51,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★ Reputation:★★★★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Upsol(Foods & drinks)
Rivals: AS Aguajú(main), Odiol Vinceti(secondary), AC Pomena(city), Porcara FC(city), AC Guillermont(city), USdC Catena(city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: U.S Remeno is the 2nd oldest club in the nation's history, founded by returning merchants from Quebec as a consequence of even learning about the sport in the first place in the sports-crazed nation. Over time it has become a more left-leaning club and quite anti-monarchist to the point a lot of its fans and important people have been described as treasonous by the royalist fans across town in AC Pomena as well as their fiercest rivals from across the nation, AS Aguajú.
Last season's finish: 6th. Massive improvement with the club's limited resources, missing out on IFCF reemergence surely hurt but the Carabinieri are back with a bang once again as one of the better sides in the country.

Club: Cordoba FC
Nickname: Tarifa de puntos
Manager: Leonard Pitlinger(Age 47)
Formation: 3-4-3
Ground: Alcazar Stadium(Capacity: 45,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★★ Reputation:★★★★ Youth team:★★★★
Sponsor: Al-Rayyan Family Enterprise(Oil & Energy)
Rivals: USC Cuori(main), Petro Mohammed FC(cultural)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Cordoba's the cradle of the most multicultural city in the entire nation of Juvencus and was created in the late 1890's to keep the city's inhabitants in check initially, while this worked even better and united them. A successful side in the Crescent Desert's leagues for a while, it was not until recently that it was incorporated into the pyramid of Juven Football and after being acquired by the half-Cordoban/half-Qurijan family of Al-Rayyan, Tarifa de puntos have significant financial backing rivaling those of the top sides and Odiol Vinceti.
Last season's finish: 5th. Incredible rise to the upper echelons of Juven football, surprising the whole nation and only staying out of IFCF-contention by one point. Pitlinger is a genius at the helm of the club and with several strong transfers and potential internationals added to the mix. The team is going to chase an even higher finish this season.

Club: AS Aguajú
Nickname: Los Amazones
Manager: Urano Berpitulli(Age 56)
Formation: 4-4-2
Ground: Stadio Electrico, Aguajú(Capacity: 34,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★ Reputation:★★★★ Youth team:★★★
Sponsor: Adelmercato(Supermarket Chain) + its own fanbase
Rivals: U.S Remeno(main), AC Melposa(main), AC Pomena(secondary), U.S Scudelli(secondary)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 1 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Supercopa Juve, 1 FFI League of Victors
Background: Aguajú's sensitive location on the borderline to Oscioru and an overlapping Juven/Osci region in general has brought sensitivies of nationalism much greater than in other spots around the country. While the basis of language and religion is not really a barrier, the basis of Juven national consciousness has been a thought in the backs of the heads of AS Aguajú's fanbase. Created by the 2nd Aguajú Artillery Division in the post-unification years, the team has always had a militant character in regards to how it always takes what it wants because it has known no other way. This might result in a lot of the team or fanbase statements to be over the top and overcompensating in order to prove how Juven they really are. Which undoubtedly, the side has done a great job showcasing. They are the first team to win an international club trophy.
Last season's finish: 4th. Remaining at the top of the food chain has been the club's main goal and Urano Berpitulli has proven to be exactly THAT guy when it comes to leading the Sud's best team. With that said, there's nothing less to be expected from Los Amazones since they possess one of the most talented rosters in the league and they are shredders when it comes to more international affairs as well.

Club: FC Piluzzi
Nickname: La Nuovoviola
Manager: Cesare Ajello(Age 50)
Formation: 4-3-3
Ground: PegAssus Arena, Port-Pegassu(Capacity: 43,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★ Reputation:★★★ Youth team:★★★★★
Sponsor: Demichelli's Pizzeria(Food & Drinks)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(city), Picgliara Calcio(city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve
Culture: A fanbase that is very in-your-face about its achievements, no matter if there is a slump on appearances or not. They will remind you that one victory in the first Copa Juve to ever take place. Nothing else of value, however.
Background: Port-Pegasu is a very large, affluent coastal city of 4 million people conjoined to much larger Scudelli(and accounts to its statistical area) and it consists of its largest port and business district. While in the day-to-day life there is a big split between dockyard workers and business men who keep everything running in the area, FC Piluzzi was created to mostly close the gap to the bigger threats of other, larger cities, such as Scudelli itself and Pomena of which former's fanbases tried to lure Port-Pegassu people in, with no success. The team was known for its light blue attire and conservative style of playing, however under this new management & ownership, this identity is switching to a purple attire and a mysterious new style of play nobody has any idea about.
Last season's finish: 3rd. Doubting Ajello's genius is a mistake several outlets seemed to have made, but an exceptional performance in the league last season under his guise and the development of a lot of international-worthy talent has certainly given the team a much deserved push towards being title contenders. There is no backing down at this point, only pushing up.

Club: U.S Scudelli
Nickname: Les géants
Manager: Gael Gaetan(Age 48)
Formation: 4-4-2
Ground: Il Scudelliano, Scudelli(Capacity: 55,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★★ Reputation:★★★★★ Youth team:★★★★★
Sponsor: Goamarca(Supermarket & Hypermarket Chain)
Rivals: AC Pomena(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), FC Piluzzi(city), Picgliara Calcio(city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 2 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: Team created by bitter descendants of Scudelliano soldiers who fought during the unification war in the side of the Independentists. Team slowly turned into Scudelli and the whole East's representation in the now unified nation, with ideals that turned from bitter resentment to more liberal and free. The team was very successful in the pre-modern era while it has not been too bad in the modern era, with a Copa Juve victory to show for it in an otherwise disastrous season.
Last season's finish: 2nd. Despite having the best attack in the nation once more, inability to keep the backdoors shut and to pick up more certain victories served as the club's downfall last season. 2nd place still is not bad by any means, however combining that with a Supercopa defeat and basically running short of every single hurdle has hurt the club immensely.

Club: AC Pomena
Nickname: The Uhlaner
Manager: Pietro Ancelotti(Age 64)
Formation: 3-4-3
Ground: Stadio Gianluca IV, Pomena(Capacity: 85,000)
Facilities: Stadium:★★★★★ Reputation:★★★★★ Youth team:★★★★★
Sponsors: RAPOM(Broadcasting & Entertainment) + Mother Cerveza(Drinks:From Cardenao)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(main), AC Serone(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), U.S Remeno(city), Porcara FC(city), AC Guillermont(city), USdC Catena(city)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 6 Campionato Juvencus, 3 Copa Juve
Background: The very first team to be created in the nation in 1893 by Pomenienze merchants who came back from a voyage to Quebec and returned with this brand new idea in mind about the beautiful sport which was brought not that long before that. Royalist in nature, it is naturally also the Holy Emperor's favorite team and with it, all his supporters find solace and relation to him through the team. Though outlawed for any powerful politicians(Parlamento Reale representatives + the royal family) to fund any teams, his support for the team has garnered the support of millions of Juven both in Juvencus and abroad. The most successful team of the modern era and in general, it has 5 Campionato victories, most won by any team and a Copa Juve victory, being the only team to have won the double and also the first team to have ever qualified to the group and knockout stages of a major IFCF tournament.
Last season's finish: Champions & Cup Winners! The domestic double was yet another Pietro Ancelotti masterlcass combined with strong offensive prowess in an ever-growing league. The Uhlaner have shown how much ahead they are from the rest of the teams in the nation and as such have deservedly won the double for a second time ever. That trophy cabinet's space and gap from the other teams is looking to be taking a big distance.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2036-37 FULL REVIEW

The Campionato served excitement and a tight title race all the way to the final matchday and we have been served a beautiful finish to yet another beautiful season. AC Serone is back at the top of the Juven Campionato finishing just one point above U.S Scudelli. Their exciting return lands them their 3rd title, the second most out of any team in the competition. AC Pomena had a dramatic fall from grace this season, however they barely managed to clinch a spot at IFCF competition. U.S Scudelli have proven yet again that their attacking prowess, while admirable, somehow always falls short at the last hurdle and last but not least, Cordoba FC is the biggest surprise entrant to the IFCF list of teams, finishing 3rd. They are here to stay. An even more dramatic fall from grace however is the one Los Amazones had, finishing 11th this season after a disastrous series of events following Urano Berpitulli falling sick and interim managers giving bad care to the players leading to some embarrassing defeats for the strong club. Another shocker is AC Picilia's drop to the Serie B while being Copa Juve winners back to back only recently.

COPA JUVE BONERE

Very typical season for the Copa Juve this time around, with many elite clubs establishing dominance from very early on. We did not have any of those cinderella runs from Serie B clubs to the semi-final this time around, with the last teams standing being Athletic Arragoeta and Rivoluzione 1876 FC, both being eliminated in the quarter-final. A very exciting run culminated in a rematch of last season's final, seeing AC Pomena duke it out with Herona Calcio, who would come out as a victor?

FINAL

In a jam-packed Nuovo Stadio della Popolazione, the Uhlaner and the Truppe del Deserto gave a valiant battle with each other. However, destiny had planned for a different outcome this time as a last 10-minute flash series of goals by Herona Calcio would secure them the first major title in the club's history and all hell would break loose with their celebrations. On the other hand, AC Pomena would come short once again in another final and this run of bad results in major finals should have them worried.

AC Pomena 0–2 Herona Calcio
@ Nuovo Stadio della Popolazione, Remeno (Attendance: 50,888)

SUPERCOPA JUVE

AC Pomena has had a very bad run in finals, including the Supercopa. AC Picilia proved to be too tough for the Pomenienze to cut and won comfortably for their second ever Supercopa victory.

AC Pomena 0–2 AC Picilia
@ Stadio Compagna, Scudelli

SERIE B

The Serie B is an unpredictable league, however several teams, usually returning ones have a better chance of being promoted back to the Campionato. Internazionale Serone is one of such teams as they barely scrapped their first ever trophy and a promotion back to the big dogs. Despite Petro Mohammed FC's relegation, Al Qurija will still have a representative back to the top flight as Al Qurija FC will also be promoted. AC Melposa will be following them, while Union Torona will be thinking about its immeasurable disappointment of missing out on promotion on the last hurdle.

IFCF & FFI Competitions

For this season, a more concise and short overview will be presented for the performances of Juven clubs in international club competitions for the past season.

Juven clubs had a very abysmal international club season in comparison to other seasons with many clubs already gone way before the 2nd or 3rd preliminary rounds of all IFCF competitions. AC Pomena had a solid continental run however, reaching the group stages of the Challengers Cup and finishing 2nd in a very tough group including the coveted Revolutionaries of Eura and 1896 Ebor of Mytanija, with Anomalies from the also extremely strong Chromatik League. The run would fall short at the round of 32 in the competition as Stein Los Turkish would pack a punch for the Uhlaner.

For FFI competitions it was also a quiet season, as Juven clubs did not manage to even get past the quarter-finals of any of the competitions at hand. Which is a first in 3 seasons now.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2038-39 FIRST HALF REVIEW

Another season obscura has taken place in Juvencus and while talent seems to develop, lack of international club football experience has taken a significant toll in the national team's performance. For that reason, the Juven Football Association in conjunction with Banca Toro have improvised a plan called 'Project 100'. This is a 5-season plan(starting from the current cycle of World Cup 95) on which Juven teams are advised to develop local talent and make deep runs in IFCF and FFI-sanctioned competitions. That way, Juven players will earn much-needed international club football experience that will in turn translate into better performances in la squadra and also present itself as opportunities for Juven players to make a big name abroad.

The JFA and Banca Toro have distributed an amount equal to 300 million Juven pesos across all clubs at both levels of the professional pyramid to invest in internal transfers, academies and other facility improvements. This risky investment is believed to be the go-to idea across the board and beyond that, only trust is needed, much like what Madeiros needed. Since 2 years ago and that historic triumph in the Independents Cup 18, football's popularity, while already high soared into new heights with many young prospects presenting themselves and as such Juven clubs will be getting deeper and deeper pools in due time.

While season obscura has been a common phenomenon in Juven football, its likelihood to happen again will rapidly decrease with each passing year as project 100 will be taking shape. This season, many clubs have changed their approach to the game and as such, more and more offensive football will be presented on the field, with more fluid formations as compared to the past few years. This is part of a revolutionisation progress called the "Cannavaro effect" named after Jules Cannavaro, who implemented it with AC Serone 2 seasons ago resulting in the side's first championship win in a while. With that said, in the list below, we will be presenting the 20 clubs of the much-anticipated and exciting Juven Campionato.

Club: AC Melposa
Nickname: los Tigres
Manager: Cesare Marlos(Age 44)
Ground: Estadio de los Tigres, Melposa(Capacity: 20,000)
Sponsor: SudAir(Air Travel)
Rivals: AS Aguajú(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: The team was originally created by tiger tamers called "Los Tigres de Melposa". The team had a history of competing in local leagues with minimal success until it unified with "Petroleros de Melposa" to make AC Melposa.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 3rd
Expectations: Remain in the Campionato, as they are lacking expertise. Several transfers made in the window have covered some gaps, but as the Campionato's quality has increased, they may or may not translate the same way.

Club: Al Qurija FC
Nickname: i Musulmani
Manager: Duha Kamal El-Mofty(Age 47)
Ground: Farooq El-Abdellaoui Arena, City of Qurija, Al Qurija(Capacity: 34,000)
Sponsor: SooqRen(Automobile company)
Rivals: Petro Mohammed FC(main), Cordoba FC(cultural)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: A team to represent Qurijans in domestic Juven football was initially created in Córdoba by Qurijan immigrants in the city. For 50 years, it was Córdoba's largest team before being relocated to the motherland. Despite its past history in the city, it has fully integrated with Qurijan football standards now, instead of the ones in its previous home. The team is known as i musulmani due to its predominantly muslim fanbase.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 2nd
Expectations: Remain in the Campionato, however with some talented additions to the roster they could be showing a good face in a Campionato that seems to be getting more and more top-heavy.

Club: Internazionale Serone
Nickname: InterSe
Manager: Antoine De Juste(Age 51)
Ground: Stadio Orione, Serone(Capacity: 21,000)
Sponsor: Capdevilla(Communications)
Rivals: AC Serone(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Founded in the very busy and international Revoda Sea port of Serone, InterSe's history is long being one of the first clubs to ever be founded in Juvencus. Being in the 2nd largest heart of Revoda Sea trade in Juvencus, after Pomena, Serone has always been host to people of all walks of life from every side of the country. The team was founded 2 months after more localised side AC Serone was founded as a representative of the merchants, the dockyard workers and pretty much everyone else who felt unrepresented in the classes of Serone in the late 19th century. It enjoyed pretty heavy success in the 20th and early 21st centuries, winning a series of local tournaments and cups but in the modern era the team has not produced the same performances. Nevertheless, it is still a larger-than-life representation.
Last season's finish: Serie B Champions!
Expectations: Have a respectable return run to the Campionato and hide the shame of their relegation off of the face of the earth.

Club: Picgliara Calcio
Nickname: I Sagittari
Manager: Ernesto Molina(Age 41)
Ground: Stadio Compagna, Scudelli(Capacity: 37,000)
Sponsor: Lerosa TV(Television channel)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(city), FC Piluzzi(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Rare tropical Wine-producing fields in Scudelli attracted a lot of farmers from all over the nation and as the years passed by, Scudelli's wine-makers decided to make their own representative side. While not known for talented players or success, hard work and a very morale-destroying defensive playing, the hardest to get past in the nation have been enough to give the side its well-deserved notoriety.
Last season's finish: 17th
Expectations: Avoid relegation and improve any and all mistakes from last year. The defensive line has almost completely changed which means the team is brand new at this point.

Club: S.S.C Pacgliari
Nickname: Os Unidos
Manager: Cristina Guggi(Age 45)
Ground: Estádio da Concepção, Pacgliari(Capacity: 17,000)
Sponsor: Alva(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: Dortimao FC(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: Originally a team consisting of unionist military veterans from the second great war of unification, the team has been dubbed as Os Unidos for that reason and for being a unifying factor between the large chasm of all the new classes of the infant nation that Juvencus was at the time of the team's creation. Not necessarily a powerful team always, but sometimes it was definitely up there causing massive upsets.
Last season's finish: 16th
Expectations: The fans of the team have grown complacent with its place in the leaderboard and so has the board of the team. Not many changes were made and as such avoiding relegation is a more realistic goal for Os Unidos than pushing for the IFCF spots in the near future.

Club: Dortimao FC
Nickname: Os Soldados Tropicais
Manager: Carlos Silveira(Age 57)
Ground: Ninho do Dragão, Pacgliari(Capacity: 22,000)
Sponsor:Margarita's Symposium(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: S.S.C Pacgliari(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Dortimao FC was founded in the early stages of the 20th century by Osci and Juven veterans of war in Al Qurija. It was always a team playing in local leagues and lower divisions without major achievements. S.S.C Pacgliari managed to get their spot with the creation of the Campionato, which is something the club is still complaining about.
Last season's finish: 15th
Expectations: Despite an impressive performance last season, the team is still looking at survival more than pressing forward in the league at its current state. Carlos Silveira is still venerated by his fellow citizens however.

Club: Toro Calcio
Nickname: I Gladiatori
Manager: Gustavo Pauli-Trajkovic(Age 52)
Ground: Torre di Toro, Torona(Capacity: 26,000)
Sponsor: Armatori Uomiti(Clothing brand)
Rivals: USC Toro(Main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Created by internal immigrant factory workers in Torona in the late 19th century, Toro Calcio is one of the oldest sports clubs in the nation as a whole and one whose whole image, identity and purpose is centered around its unifying properties in its region as a whole. While never the strongest team, it always attracted the largest number of fans due to it being accepting of both French and Italian-speaking people and also served as an outlet to get rid of any negativity that was afflicting post-Unification War industrial workers, especially in a place as affected as Torona had been.
Last season's finish: 14th
Expectations: Survival is always this team's goal, considering its history. Despite that, several investments have been made towards the improvement of the squad and covering several gaps in the midfield, which has been the team's main issue.

Club: AC Trata
Nickname: i Caroneri
Manager: Manuel Zangari(Age 55)
Ground: L'Aranconetta, Trata(Capacity: 16,000)
Sponsor: Serviggieri Motors(Vehicles)
Rivals: AC Guillermont(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: AC Trata was founded in the 1920s by a powerful mafiosi family centered in the area. After they were expelled to Montagnaverde, the rights were passed to Serviggieri Motors, a big motorcycle company closely affiliated to them. The support from the fanbase is unreal, but they obviously have a terrible reputation both for being anti-monarchist and for the affiliations to the nation-degenerating mafia.
Last season's finish: 13th
Expectations: AC Trata has proven to be the mid-table team of the nation, the fans expect nothing more and nothing less. Despite being in the top flight for a few years, they are still eyeing on that survival a bit more than they can look at entering the coveted IFCF and FFI spots.

Club: Odiol Vinceti
Nickname: Gli Oligarchi
Manager: Mansoor Saleh Amjad(Age 62)
Ground: Vinceti Catedral, Vinceti(Capacity: 53,000)
Sponsor: Odiol(Automobile & Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: U.S Remeno(secondary)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Originally found by shipyard workers as AC Vinceti, the side found limited, mild success without any major accolade of sorts. It mostly served as a representative of the eastern side of Juvencus and eventually saw all its stocks and holdings purchased by Odiol overnight. They gave the club a massive overhaul such as a new name and identity and gave it a strong budget(of over 200 million juven pesos) that it still has no idea how to use.
Last season's finish: 12th
Expectations: Massive drop in performance alongside Gacinovic's resignment has led the club to its biggest crisis yet. However, the goal remains to push for those IFCF spots.

Club: AS Aguajú
Nickname: Los Amazones
Manager: Luciano Gacinovic(Age 59)
Ground: Stadio Electrico, Aguajú(Capacity: 34,000)
Sponsor: Adelmercato(Supermarket Chain) + its own fanbase
Rivals: U.S Remeno(main), AC Melposa(main), AC Pomena(secondary), U.S Scudelli(secondary)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Supercopa Juve, 1 FFI League of Victors
Background: Aguajú's sensitive location on the border with Oscioru and an overlapping Juven/Osci region in general has brought sensitivies of nationalism much greater than in other places around the country. While the basis of language and religion is not really a barrier, the basis of Juven national consciousness has been a thought in the back of the head of many a people in AS Aguajú's fanbase. Created by the 2nd Aguajú Artillery Division in the post-unification years, the team has always had a militant character in regards to how it always takes what it wants because it has known no other way. This might result in a lot of the team or fanbase statements to be over the top and overcompensating in order to prove how Juven they really are. Which undoubtedly, the side has done a great job showcasing. They are the first and so far only team to win an international club trophy.
Last season's finish: 11th
Expectations: Do not be fooled by last season's finish, Uranu Berpitulli's departure from the club was the only thing keeping the team split and maintained its bad performances. However Luciano Gacinovic's arrival during the last few matchdays gave the team its necessary boost and togetherness to stay alive. This season the club can aim high.

Club: USdC Catena
Nickname: Le bestie incatenate
Manager: Maurizio Delfons(Age 48)
Ground: Ipiti Stadium, Catena Chained City Union(Capacity: 14,000)
Sponsor: Vurudu(Supermarket & Hypermarket Chain)
Rivals: AC Pomena(city), U.S Remeno(city), Porcara FC(city), AC Guillermont(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Catena's known as an urban sprawl of smaller cities surrounding Pomena's southwest side. The team was founded by the locals to find a means of staying united, avoiding to be absorbed by Pomena and to of course have a representation for the city union.
Last season's finish: 10th
Expectations: The mid-table finish is giving the team's fanbase an air of confidence, however the team has been completely dismantled with many starters leaving for other teams. This could be make or break for le bestie incatenate.

Club: Herona Calcio
Nickname: Truppe del Deserto
Manager: Davide Aligheri(Age 59)
Ground: Stadio Artemio Alberti, Herona(Capacity: 31,000)
Sponsor: Planetta Oil(Oil company)
Rivals: FC Herone(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve
Background: The Italian-language representative of Herona and not Herone, as the Italian-speaking fans will correct you very aggressively. Herona Calcio is one of the most politically-aligned teams in the nation, known to fund and support all far-right and italian-language nationalist parties of their region. While the team's ultras carry major fights, the team has always played a relatively offensive style of football even in the more defensive eras of Juven football. Not necessarily successful ever, they always follow their goals to have their ideals not just heard, but enforced, at least in their own side of the city, il Quartiere, as it's known. The new Stadio Artemio Alberti is the new temple of the team and opposing and neutral fans will DEFINITELY not be allowed unless the ultras of the club deem fit.
Last season's finish: 9th, Cup Winners!
Expectations: Winning the Copa was good for the team, but despite that a lesser focus on the league would prove to be damaging for the team's chase towards the much needed international club football experience. Despite that, Herona Calcio offers some of the most exciting football in the country at the moment. The team's goal is to chase international club football spots yet again.

Club: U.S Remeno
Nickname: Remeniotti Carabinieri
Manager: Urano Berpitulli(Age 58)
Ground: Nuovo Stadio della Popolazione, Remeno(Capacity: 51,000)
Sponsor: Upsol(Foods & drinks)
Rivals: AS Aguajú(main), Odiol Vinceti(secondary), AC Pomena(main), Porcara FC(main), AC Guillermont(main), USdC Catena(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: U.S Remeno is the 2nd oldest club in the nation's history, founded by returning merchants from Quebec as a consequence of even learning about the sport in the first place in the sports-crazed nation. Over time it has become a more left-leaning club and quite anti-monarchist to the point a lot of its fans and important people have been described as treasonous by the royalist fans across town in AC Pomena as well as their fiercest rivals from across the nation, AS Aguajú.
Last season's finish: 8th
Expectations: The club is under new management baby, Urano Berpitulli is ready to set this boat afloat. The Remeniotti have arguably been one of the most inconsistent teams in the Campionato as of late, despite the quality that exists within their squad.

Club: USC Toro
Nickname: Gli Tauri
Manager: Cesare Marlos(Age 44)
Ground: AquaToro Arena, Torona(Capacity: 56,000)
Sponsor: AquaToro(Beverages, Investment & Gaming)
Rivals: Toro Calcio(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Team created by royalists of Torona as a representation of them as a minority at the time of the team's creation. Eventually more and more people started to support in the city after its successes in the footballing antiquity of Juvencus. Despite the initial setback of AquaToro's newest franchise, an instant rise back to the Campionato will see the team fighting to see itself back at the top of Juvencus.
Last season's finish: 7th
Expectations: New stadium, new ambitions. USC Toro is aiming to conquer the nation, but will it succeed or fail like all other projects have done before?

Club: S.S.C Tipoli
Nickname: Los Jaguares
Manager: Orso Pozzi(Age 53)
Ground: Il Metropolitano, Tipoli(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: The Wharf(Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: None, yet every maritime club of the west
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: A team made by dockyard workers in the harbour of Tipoli that slowly came to represent the city. Historically one of the strongest sides of the league and this has gone on in the modern era, despite some hiccups here and there. Everything maritime related is the club's joy and the club management shows a lot of support for every maritime trade treaty there is out there, especially ones that benefit the city of Tipoli.
Last season's finish: 6th
Expectations: This is a team that has shown signs of improvement, Orso Pozzi's appointing could hint towards large things. Fans expect the team to finally reach the much-needed IFCF spots.

Club: FC Piluzzi
Nickname: La Nuovoviola
Manager: Cesare Ajello(Age 52)
Ground: PegAssus Arena, Port-Pegassu(Capacity: 43,000)
Sponsor: Demichelli's Pizzeria(Food & Drinks)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(main), Picgliara Calcio(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve
Background: Port-Pegasu is a very large, affluent coastal city of 4 million people conjoined to much larger Scudelli(and accounts to its statistical area) and it consists of its largest port and business district. While in the day-to-day life there is a big split between dockyard workers and business men who keep everything running in the area, FC Piluzzi was created to mostly close the gap to the bigger threats of other, larger cities, such as Scudelli itself and Pomena of which former's fanbases tried to lure Port-Pegassu people in, with no success. The team was known for its light blue attire and conservative style of playing, however under this new management & ownership, this identity is switching to a purple attire and a mysterious new style of play that nobody has any idea about even after this long while.
Last season's finish: 5th
Expectations: So close, yet so far. La Nuovoviola has every single right to dream big this season, considering the number of transfers it has made and also considering the fact Ajello's management has been pretty solid.

Club: AC Pomena
Nickname: The Uhlaner
Manager: Pietro Ancelotti(Age 66)
Ground: Stadio Gianluca IV, Pomena(Capacity: 85,000)
Sponsor: RAPOM(Broadcasting & Entertainment) + Mother Cerveza(Drinks:From Cardenao)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(main), AC Serone(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), U.S Remeno(main), Porcara FC(main), AC Guillermont(main), USdC Catena(main) + literally everyone else in the country, everyone hates them
Kits:
Trophies Won: 6 Campionato Juvencus, 3 Copa Juve
Background: The very first team to be created in the nation in 1893 by Pomenienze merchants who came back from a voyage to Quebec and returned with this brand new idea in mind about the beautiful sport which was brought not that long before that. Royalist in nature, it is naturally also the Holy Emperor's favorite team and with it, all his supporters find solace and relation to him through the team. Though outlawed for any powerful politicians(Parlamento Reale representatives + the royal family) to fund any teams, his support for the team has garnered the support of millions of Juven both in Juvencus and abroad. The most successful team of the modern era and in general, it has a record of 6 Campionato victories and 3 Copa Juve victories, which also serves as a record. The Uhlaner are the only team to have won the double and also the first team to have ever qualified to the group and knockout stages of a major IFCF tournament.
Last season's finish: 4th
Expectations: AC Pomena expects to lift trophies, as it is their yearly goal. Last year was not their year with 2 finals losses, an early IFCF exit and of course missing out on the Campionato. With this being the last season with Pietro Ancelotti on the helm, the team is looking to win its 7th Campionato and remain the trendsetter for Juven teams to come.

Club: Cordoba FC
Nickname: Tarifa de puntos
Manager: Leonard Pitlinger(Age 49)
Ground: Alcazar Stadium, Córdoba(Capacity: 45,000)
Sponsor: Al-Rayyan Family Enterprise(Oil & Energy)
Rivals: USC Cuori(main), Petro Mohammed FC(cultural), Al Qurija FC(cultural)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Cordoba's the cradle of the most multicultural city in the entire nation of Juvencus and was created in the late 1890's to keep the city's inhabitants in check initially, while this worked even better and united them. A successful side in the Crescent Desert's leagues for a while, it was not until recently that it was incorporated into the pyramid of Juven Football and after being acquired by the half-Cordoban/half-Qurijan family of Al-Rayyan, Tarifa de puntos have significant financial backing rivaling those of the top sides and Odiol Vinceti.
Last season's finish: 3rd
Expectations: Cordoba FC's on the rise as the most exciting prospect in Juven football currently. With a lot of homegrown talent, as well as several Qurijan and Osci players, this team could be aiming high following heavy investment over the transfer window. Besides that, the team has extensive depth and could be challenging for the title this season, but its expectations are to remain on top for long enough to get the IFCF spots and at least aim for the Copa.

Club: U.S Scudelli
Nickname: Les géants
Manager: Gael Gaetan(Age 50)
Ground: Il Scudelliano, Scudelli(Capacity: 55,000)
Sponsor: Goamarca(Supermarket & Hypermarket Chain) + Gregg's Restaurant(Food & Drinks:From Quebec&Shingoryeo)
Rivals: AC Pomena(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), FC Piluzzi(main), Picgliara Calcio(main) + most of the nation, they also hate them
Kits:
Trophies Won: 2 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: Team created by bitter descendants of Scudelliano soldiers who fought during the unification war in the side of the Independentists. Team slowly turned into Scudelli and the whole East's representation in the now unified nation, with ideals that turned from bitter resentment to more liberal and free. The team was very successful in the pre-modern era while it has not been too bad in the modern era, despite its ups downs. It has one of the most extensive trophy cabinets in the nation and it shows with its quality on the pitch.
Last season's finish: 2nd
Expectations: They want to win and they have to win. U.S Scudelli has set its sights high and it will not stop at any obstacle. Not many transfers were made, as there's faith in Gael Gaetan to keep the team together.

Club: AC Serone
Nickname: I Revodesi
Manager: Jules Cannavaro(Age 40)
Ground: Il Porto, Serone(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: Oblisteria(Entertainment)
Rivals: Internazionale Serone(main), AC Pomena(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 3 Campionato Juvencus
Background: The very first team to be founded in Serone and one of the first in the nation to be founded in general after Quebecois merchants brought the sport to the nation in the late 19th century. It was initially founded, supposedely, for the representation of everyone in Serone. Truth be told it was very much beneficial to merchants and traders than other classes of the city which led to the creation of the rival side, Internazionale Serone just 2 months after. AC Serone is historically a dominant club and one of the few to lift the Campionato more than once which gives their name a certain weight much above the rest of the clubs in the league and more on par with AC Pomena itself, despite being more overshadowed by its success.
Last season's finish: Champions!
Expectations: I Revodesi are chasing the repeat and subsequently catching up with the Uhlaner inch by inch. The investments made by the club fit well within Cannavaro's system and tactics and they could be aiming for a great campaign this time around.

SUPERCOPA JUVE

AC Serone and Herona Calcio brought fire to the game of calcio for the Supercopa Juve game. Difficulties were presented to i Revodesi by Herona Calcio, with an early Martina Gaggo goal. This goal served as a wake up goal for i Revodesi as they pummeled the Truppe del Deserto's goal for the entire game and a Munir equaliser was exactly what the team needed to maintain the pressure. Ramos would complete the dramatic turnaround at 90+3 minutes, following a great through-ball by Iturraspe and as such, AC Serone were crowned Supercopa Champions for the first time in their history.

AC Serone 2–1 Herona Calcio
@ Alcazar Stadium, Córdoba (Attendance: 44,561)

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2038-39 PART 1

Being 10 matchdays in and having no dominant side is a sign of a healthy Campionato. Teams have been getting used to higher caliber, higher speed campionato, full of aggression and goals. U.S Remeno seems to be taking back its long lost form, as they are currently leading the table, thanks to a good run of form by talented Pau Legionario, Joao Peres and Trinidad Caruzzo. None of the traditional giants seem to be in title contention so far, as they have had some pretty rough results their way. AS Aguajú has had a really rough couple of seasons recently and this one is no different than the ones before it seems like. With the league in its early stages however, everything is subject to change and as such not much is to be taken.

However what really stood out is the intensity of the aggressive football in the Campionato. Clinical strikers, wingers, fast-paced football. The league seems to be heading towards a trajectory that is similar to other high scoring leagues such as the multi-associational Shango-Fogoa League. Several high-profile matches happened which ended with several interesting results. The most notable ones were:

Matchday 1:
U.S Remeno 5–1 AS Aguajú: I Remeniotti Carabinieri showed dominance on the pitch in all aspects of the game and the fact that Legionario turned this into the Legionario show by scoring 4 goals says a lot. Los Amazones lacked the presence of Pau Puig and it showed in all of their defensive gaps. To be losing 5-1 to their fiercest rivals from across the nation in the first matchday has played a big part in their dwindling performances as of late.

Cordoba FC 7–5 AC Pomena: The fans at the Alcazar Stadium bore witness to one of the most high-scoring and exciting matches this league has ever offered in its history. Rising Giants vs The Royals. Al-Hamdawi vs Côté. The two young strikers scored a hat-trick each and carried their teams on their shoulders for the entirety of the game. Al-Hamdawi was also the playmaker for one of each of Zekeria and Cuzzi's goals that made the difference in the exciting 12-goal thriller. Cordoba FC has picked itself since then, while AC Pomena is still hoping to pick up its pieces.

AC Serone 1-1 Dortimao FC: Upsets happen, and when they happen in the first matchday to the defending champions against a low-table team, it hits harder. Simoes was Dortimao's golden scorer as he broke the ice in the 80th minute, before Ciampa could equalise for i Revodesi.

Matchday 3:
AC Serone 9–1 Toro Calcio: What is there to be said? AC Serone dominated the entire game, Sara Ponce showcased her skill on the field. I Revodesi had 7 diferent scorers! A matchday to forget for Toro Calcio which does not seem to be in top shape for the Campionato.

Matchday 4:
U.S Scudelli 5–0 Cordoba FC: The difference in approach from giant to giant in Cordoba's camp seems to be worrysome. Despite their excellent performances in the majority of their matches, Scudelli winning 4-0 by half-time surely put a lot of their efforts to shame. That is not to say that they did not pressure at all, but they lacked consistency and Juan Carlos Ungaro made a lot of wonderful saves to keep the clean sheet. Clear and utter dominance from Gaetan's team.

Matchday 5:
AC Pomena 1–5 U.S Scudelli: Said clear dominance was maintained in the following matchday. The Juven Clásico generally sees matches that are usually towards AC Pomena's side, yet really close in scoreline. With that said, les géants were playing an one-sided game at the Stadio Gianluca IV. AC Pomena was unrecognisable, while players like Soares, Jacques Christophe and Aboubakar Sidibe were running in circles around the Pomenienze defence. It is the most one-sided Juven Clásico in history, and could prove pivotal in the latter stages of the league.

Matchday 8:
AS Aguajú 5–1 AC Pomena: The Uhlaner have really not had their way with derbies this season. The Nord vs Sud derby was over before it could even begin. Tatiana Vicario put on a show for the ages as she scored 3 past the Uhlaner with nothing for them to attack back with. The atmosphere at the stadium was electric, as blue-colored flares were lit to give the stadium its special feeling.

Martchday 9:
U.S Scudelli 0–1 Al Qurija FC: One of this season's upsets has to be Al Qurija FC. A team that has had a wonderful start to the season and currently sits at 3rd place. A team mostly consisting of local Qurijan talent, which will have to sadly not represent their nation due to turmoil in the board. What an incredible story was written at Il Scudelliano with an early header by El-Abeed that sent chills down the spines of the Scudelliano side.

Table after 10 matchdays:

COPA JUVE BONERE FIRST ROUND & ROUND OF 32

Reutrn to the full knockout format for the first time in a long while for the Juven Pyramid. The 40-team format now works with a first round involving almost all the teams remaining in Serie B from the previous season, before being joined with the Campionato teams + the 3 relegated teams from the previous season + 1 lucky team from Serie B.

The derby between the Union clubs in the first round of the cup was an interesting affair, however Union Pomena got the best of its co-workers in Torona. The first round was not so interesting, as was the round of 32. Matches in the Copa seem to be tighter and to be using rotational teams rather than the starters. U.S Scudelli vs Cordoba FC was the most important match of them all with the Scudelliano barely scraping victory past a defensively sound Cordoba FC that despite learning its lesson from their last meetup, has not fully learnt to counter its rivals.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2038-39 PART 2

It is total Calcio! Scudelli is playing the best football in the country at this moment, it is by far the most improved team of the lot and they have stepped up from their mediocre start in the first 10 matchdays. With an average of 4 goals per game, this team's offensive capabilities are on fire as we have entered the mid-season. It is now that the top sides' stamina and mental strength will start to show. AC Pomena has been on a path of improvement as well, however with some inconsistences here and there. Al Qurija FC is still moving forwards with a strong run for a newcomer, however the injuries of clinical El-Abeed on the offence as well as captain De Colpi on goal will leave huge gaps for the team moving forward. The Campioni at Serone's camp are having a hard time with their defence so far, but as with everything on this league, it is subject to change. Especially know what magnificent runs this team tends to do at the late season. Lastly, U.S Remeno has ran out of steam and have been on a horrible run of form as of late, keeping up with their persistent inconsistency of recent seasons.

With the shock of the starting matchdays now gone, the strong teams have rejuvenated themselves and covered most of their necessary gaps with strong tactical play as well as usage of their talent. However, matchdays 11-20 did not fail to deliver several games of worth and some shocking results.

Matchday 11:
U.S Scudelli 7–1 AS Aguajú: The Scudellianos have been nothing short of historic this season, especially when it comes to big games. After destroying the Tarifa and the Uhlaner with 5-1 scorelines each, Los Amazones were the next in line for annihilation. Sidibe has earnt himself a spot at the top scorers to look out for with another 4 goals to his name. Let's also not forget Conte's rocket from 30 yards out.

Matchday 13:
Internazionale Serone 0–4 AC Serone: I Revodesi have clearly been the better team in their city and they proved it yet again on the pitch against their cross-city rivals. Munir was clinical up front, scoring two. While Sara Ponce does not fail to shine on the field and dictate the pace of the game. Despite an all-out victory for the Seronese, what stood out was InterSe's fanbase and their uncharacteristic behavior on the pitch. Flares were thrown, mean chants were sung and generally it was unlike what has come to be known of the team. The match had to be stopped twice before all flares could be cleared off and the InterSe fans responsible ousted from the pitch.

Dortimao FC 4–1 AS Aguajú: Whenever this team loses, IT JUST LOSES HARD. Tatiana Vicario was the sole scorer and actually the one who opened the tabs for this game but after that it became an one-sided affair at the Ninho do Dragão as Simoes, Teixeira and Nunes all showed their prowess up front.

Matchday 14:
AC Serone 0–1 Cordoba FC: For a game of this scoreline, it was a huge back-and-forth affair between AC Serone and Cordoba FC. Al-Hamdawi would manage to score a header on the 87th minute that would aid in the conquest of Il Porto by Tarifa. All the while it completely froze I Revodesi's stands.

Matchday 15:
AC Pomena 3–1 AC Serone: One man's trash is another man's stepping stone. Ballesteros was incredible on the pitch in the derby between the two most decorated teams of the Campionato. Claudia D'Alberti behaved like the experienced star that she is on the pitch, playing side by side with Raul Viejo, they both dictated the pace of the game really well. Unbelievable strike by Osci start, Côté to make it 3-1 for the Uhlaner on the 59th minute. AC Pomena was clearly the better team, as i Campioni were not recovered from the defeat at the hands of the Tarifa.

Matchday 19:
Al Qurija FC 5–1 AC Serone: Al-Abeed scored a brace, i Revodesi have been slain and their chances at defending the trophy they had fought for so hard last cycle are diminishing. Meanwhile, we could be taking for an Al Qurija FC side that would be a staple at the Campionto for the years to come.

Matchday 20:
USdC Catena 1–0 AC Trata: Ildefons Falcao, Catena's center-back, was decisive at the Ipiti for his team. A victory that has given them a breath of fresh air in their relegation struggles against AC Trata, which are currently undergoing the same struggles.

AC Pomena 0–3 Cordoba FC: To be bested once could be fluke, but to be bested twice by the same team is a shame that AC Pomena will have to endure this season. Cordoba FC was the better competitor on the pitch and unlike the premiere at the Alcazar, Gianluca IV bore witness to an one-sided affair. Al-Hamdawi is ON FIRE! What a player, la squadra and foreign clubs should be on the lookout for that young lad.

COPA JUVE BONERE ROUND OF 16

Round of 16, or Upsets of the Century? S.S.C Vilan defeat AC Pomena, which played with a weaker team on the pitch for the majority of the game, so much so that when the better players entered it was just too late. Compact backline, impossible to get through, S.S.C Vilan were deserved winners in the heist of the century! Yet another upset happened at a packed Petro Mohammed stadium, which saw I Revodesi take on an al-Shuyukh side that was just too much for them. The atmosphere played a big part in the Serie B team's grand victory against the defending Campionato winners. InterSe can feel proud to have finished yet another big team thanks to a Maria Meireles header to finish the game in the dying minutes of the match.

Of all traditional giants, only U.S Scudelli is remaining, following a comfortable victory against FC Demene. In the meanwhile, defending Copa champions Herona Calcio barely scrapped a victory against Athletic Arragoeta on extra time. Last but certainly not least, is Union Pomena's fairytale run to the quarter-finals. While only playing against teams from its own division, Union Pomena has found itself on cloud 9 following a storm of goals on extra time against Pio FC. Courtesy of a strong-willed Hugo Martini.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO PART 3 AND SECOND HALF REVIEW

As we are approaching the finish line, the title race is starting ramp up and become more and more exciting. While last year, AC Serone won the league with just 67 points, this year it sees itself leading the league after the 30th matchday with 64 points. Not only that, but the defeat against Al Qurija FC have prompted a hot run of form for the team, with 11 wins in a row! Not far behind I Revodesi are the Uhlaner, chasing their 7th trophy, having 62 points so far, while Cordoba FC and U.S Scudelli have 61 and 60 each. The latter had a slowing down in their form, due to a number of draws and a couple shocking defeats, while AC Pomena has remained undefeated in the past 10 games.

The race for the Campionato is exciting, but do not be fooled by the appearance of a strong top-4 already locking the IFCF and FFI spots as FC Piluzzi and AS Aguajú have remained fairly consistent in their chase for a spot at international club football. However, AS Aguajú have found themselves victims of giant defeats to the giants of Juven football yet again, but they are not the only ones. Below we present several of the more interesting or shocking matches of this decan.

Matchday 21:
AC Serone 5–0 AS Aguajú: I Revodesi entered the game all pumped up, Los Amazones on the other have had an inferiority complex the entire season against many of their rivals. While the match at Stadio Electrico saw the teams being evenly matched, the story at Il Porto was completely different. Gennaro Munir is yet again a main man for his team, as is Sara Ponce, clearly the best provider in the entire nation. Surprise entry on the pitch was Faustino Audiol, younger brother of Ceferino, who scored a brace to make it 4 and subsequently 5-0 in his debut match in the blue-and-yellow.

Cordoba FC 4–2 FC Piluzzi: Paola Cernoia is a whole different beast, she took Tarifa on her shoulders and carried her team to the end, as did Carla Acquati for FC Piluzzi. While the latter scored a brace for la Nuovoviola, the former scored 1 and assisted 2 to clinical Al-Hamdawi to finish the case before it event starts. Zekeria would seal the deal with a wonderful finesse that left Usuti unable to react. Bardhyl Imeri managed to save a lot of shots from la Nuovoviola's strikers on the other and kept his team alive in critical moments during the match.

Matchday 22:
Toro Calcio 0–7 AC Serone: At this point what is there to say about this team, stunner after stunner, after stunner. Munir and Audiol seem to be bonding great as an offensive duo exuding talent from miles away. Of note is Tulappa's long range goal. It is the second unbelievable scoreline AC Serone have delivered against Toro Calcio this season, scoring 16 games over the course of 2 matches, while only conceding one. Domination at its finest.

Matchday 24:
U.S Scudelli 1–1 AC Pomena: The Juven Clásico was a close affair this time around, as The Uhlaner have improved massively since the last meetup between them and Les géants. Gilberto Soares would break the ice in the 7th minute and while initially it looked like the Scudelliano would record yet another impressive win against their cross-nation rivals, the Pomenienze played a strong defensive core before taking advantadge of the formers' fatigue during the 2nd half. Ganymede Garcia would score an impressive goal from just outside the box to equalise and after that there was silence. The Uhlaner even came close to reversing the fates with Edu Coste's rocket hitting the bar in the 90+2 minute mark.

Matchday 25:
FC Piluzzi 2–0 U.S Scudelli: The Derby Scudelliano was an interesting one for sure, for it seemed the referee, Flavio Saviola was a Nuovoviola fan. Many decisions were questionable throught the game, including a red card given to Ignacio Lopes for barely touching Acquati following a dribble as well as a penalty not given to U.S Scudelli following a clear handball after a Sidibe shot. With their one-man advantadge, la nuovoviola managed to consolidate dominance throught the game and Lopetegui and Cortez would each score to finish the deal. A matchday that left a sour taste in many Scudelliano mouths, with Gael Gaetan describing the game as "an embarrassment to the beautiful game in Juvencus."

Matchday 26:
AS Aguajú 1–0 Cordoba FC: VICARIO. WHAT. A. STRIKE! Incredible long range goal by the Juven international to take a much needed victory and cover extra space in the chase towards IFCF and FFI spots. While Tarifa's Cernoia was on a good day, nobody seemed to be cooperating with her and as such, many of the attacks orchistrated by her were cut short. Los Amazones won that game with experience.

Matchday 27:
AC Pomena 5–1 AS Aguajú: That experience would turn into misery the moment Los Amazones stepped foot at the Gianluca IV stadium. The Uhlaner were bloodthirsty following their defeat at the Electrico with a 5-1 scoreline in the first half of the season. Côté would score a wonderful brace as his team cruised thru and exacted revenge from their bitter rivals. A victory much needed in the team's chase towards the Campionato itself.

Matchday 30:
AS Aguajú 0–3 U.S Scudelli: Truly, what a shame for Los Amazones to be destroyed at nearly every single derby this season. A still on-form U.S Scudelli paraded through the Stadio Electrico and with a Christophe hat-trick sealed the deal. 10 goals conceded in 2 meetups as compared to 1 of their own should be worrysome for Los Amazones in their meetups against the Scudelliano this season. Not only being unable to defeat them, but to even bring a fight.

AC Melposa 2–1 Cordoba FC: Huge upset by AC Melposa against the Tarifa which helps them keep their safety hopes alive in a relegation race that is currently raging on. Adolfo Cassini seemed to be in the form of his life this game, despite being unable to score a lot for his team this season.

COPA JUVE BONERE QUARTER-FINALS

And with that we are down to 1 Serie B team remaining. Petro Mohammed FC have had a run for the ages and defeating Internationale Serone has solidified it as one of the best Serie B team runs in the entire competition. Meanwhile, Herona Calcio is showing interest in defending its Copa from last time, while also having improved its league performances and could be packing up a punch. Toro Calcio, while in shambles in the league, they are proving to be a tough team to crack in the Copa and U.S Scudelli remains the favorite to win the Copa for the 2nd time in its history.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO PART 4

Top 4 is nearly secured, we are undergoing the most exciting title race in recent memory. 4 teams that have pretty much secured a spot in the IFCF competitions are all looking to earn a Campionato victory for the ages. Scudelli and Cordoba have had a beautiful run of form while AC Serone pummeled the Uhlaner, however they had defeats at very important matchdays, one against their rivals InterSe and the other against Cordoba FC that has dropped them behind on the title race.

With the most exciting Campionato finish in our hands, we're looking at some of the more interesting matches from last few matchdays.

Matchday 31:
U.S Scudelli 7–1 Toro Calcio & AC Pomena 7–1 AC Melposa & Cordoba FC 5–0 S.S.C Pacgliari & S.S.C Tipoli 1–4 AC Serone: The top 4 of this season played wonderful attacking football on matchday 31, picking up some pretty significant victories against relatively easy opponents, with the exception of S.S.C Tipoli. This superiority contest to see who scores the most goals and amasses the largest amount of points certainly gave this high-scoring day a taste of the glories ahead.

Matchday 32:

AC Serone 0–2 Internazionale Serone: Fortuno Ajello's first brace with InterSe would come against his team's bitter rivals in AC Serone. A set of goals that was scored in quick succession in early game before InterSe decided to fall back and take the brunt of the offense of I Revodesi. The bragging rights of the rivalry certainly belong to the side that played the better football that day and that was InterSe. AC Serone on the other will be paying for giving a chance to their opponents to push forward while they lag behind, although not by much as they all tied against their respective opponents.

Matchday 33:
AC Pomena 3–1 U.S Remeno: RAUL VIEJO! WHAT A MIDFIELD MAESTRO. The young buck gave it all on the pitch, scoring 1 and providing two more for Ballesteros and Coste as they defeat I Remeniotti Carabinieri at the Derby of the Classes. While the game was pretty even in its early stages, Raul Viejo gave a performance for the ages and helped his team earn a much-needed victory to remain on top of their game for the Campionato.

Cordoba FC 3–1 AC Serone: And the Tarifa takes it home! Paola Cernoia, Zekeria and Al-Hamdawi were the 3 scorers of a Cordoba FC that looks determined to become the first team to get promoted from Serie B to lift the Campionato. A dominant display against an AC Serone side that seems to be getting burnt out after their hot-streak of victories & defeat against bitter city rivals.

Matchday 34:
AC Serone 5–1 AC Pomena: As burnt out as they may be, i Revodesi took an important victory against an important opponent. Revenge seems to have been at the minds of many in the Seronese camp and as such we witnessed another Munir and Audiol masterclass.

Table after 35 matchdays, this is getting exciting!:

COPA JUVE BONERE SEMI-FINALS

UNBELIEVABLE! THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE! Petro Mohammed FC becomes the first team from Al Qurija as well as the first team from the second division to earn a spot at the final of the Copa Juve. What an amazing tactical display against a Herona Calcio side that has been nothing but impressive this part of the season. Toro Calcio and U.S Scudelli also delivered a 9-goal thriller, but thankfully Soares was there to save his team by the bell. As such, we have a Petro Mohammed FC vs U.S Scudelli final. Qurija vs Juvencus. Serie B vs Serie A. Sheer determination vs Utter dominance. Stay tuned, for this is going to be an exciting final!

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO PART 4: THE BUILD UP BEFORE THE STORM!

As the league is approaching its explosive ending, we will be taking a look at the top 4 teams' progresses matchday by matchday. With 2 points seperating 1st from 4th, there is a paper-thin line between glory and seeing your entire season's work slipping through their very eyes.

S.S.C Tipoli 1–0 Cordoba FC: Osci striker, Xavi Bosch has made his team's money well worth it following that wonderful strike to give Orso Pozzi's side a well-deserved victory over Cordoba FC. Cordoba FC now see themselves drop to joint 2nd place following AC Pomena's victory and U.S Scudelli's draw.

USC Toro 1–2 AC Pomena: The Pomenienze do not choke when it matters most. Despite Faustin Bonhomme giving USC Toro the advantadge for the majority of the game, the Uhlaner figured out how to break through USC Toro's backline. Ballesteros as well as Viejo would each score to turn the tables around and push Pomena to taking over the helm for a 7th Campionato win!

U.S Remeno 0–0 U.S Scudelli: The Scudelliano had their chance and they ruined it. An out-of-form Remeniotti Carabinieri side would be the perfect victim for them and they still did not win. The curse of being always 2nd place is haunting them yet again this season, although they came close to winning a couple times.

AC Serone 1–3 Herona Calcio: For the entirety of the second part of the season, Herona Calcio has been quite the impressive side. Seeing two teams on their best of forms in a while would surely serve an exciting bout. With the scales tipping in favor of i Revodesi, it all seemed as if they would get the victory, following yet another Audiol goal. However, Gennaro Casse and Fantasia Bergoglio-Bertolini were having a field day the way they co-operated with each other on the field. With the latter serving all 3 goals for Casse's hat-trick and bringing AC Serone on its knees as they wasted an opportunity.

U.S Scudelli 4–0 AC Serone: And i Revodesi are out of contention! Gael Gaetan's side proved to be too worthy for them, with a Champions-League worthy appearance against their rivals. Pierre-Didier Kouyaté would control the motion of the entire game, as Sidibe, Christophe and of course Soares would dominate in the frontlines. One last hurrah by Pierre-Didier Kouyaté, as he'd score 1 and assist 3 as he is crowned man of the match in an important matchday for him. Realistically, U.S Scudelli are the only side with a chance of stopping AC Pomena, as the Uhlaner's next matchday is against InterSe and theirs is against defensively sound Odiol Vinceti.

AC Pomena 4–0 S.S.C Tipoli: What can we say about the Pomenienze, they are really one step from their 7th. The annihilation of a clearly inferior Tipoli was one more piece towards the completion of the puzzle. The entire team played beautifully, with Coste scoring one of the most aesthetically pleasing goals of the season, dribbling through one.. two.. three.. defenders before chipping the ball over the goalkeeper's head sending the crowd to cloud 9.

Cordoba FC 0–0 Internazionale Serone: Cordoba FC has stumbled. Two matches in a row, they have not performed, nor have they scored when it mattered. While there are some thin chances of winning the Campionato, all those are wishful thinking considering the current form of the team.

COPA JUVE BONERE GRAND FINAL

Petro Mohammed FC 1–2 U.S Scudelli
@ AquaToro Arena, Torona (Attendance: 55,888)

And there you have it, les géants are winners of the Copa Juve Bonere for the 2nd time in their history! Petro Mohammed FC have done themselves proud with that one, as they came close following Mahmoud's equaliser following a Sidibe goal. However, Soares would nail the ball on the net in the 81st minute and seal the game from right then and there for his team. With the Copa out of the way, will U.S Scudelli become the 2nd ever team to make the domestic double?

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO PART 5: WE HAVE THE CHAMPIONS!

USdC Catena 1–1 Cordoba FC: Cordoba FC was playing a desperate USdC Catena that needed a victory to maintain themselves in the Campionato. Cordoba FC needed the win for a chance at winning the Campionato. An unstoppable force vs an immovable object seems to have ended in a stalemate. Al-Hamdawi would break the ice in the 14th minute but as the game progressed, the relegation-bound side found enough mental strength to dominate especially in the last minutes of the game. In the 76th minute, Cardozo, a young player would score the equaliser giving hope to his team that there would be more to come. Cardozo came close yet again in the 90+3 minutes but it was too late them. USdC Catena would sadly get relegated, while Cordoba FC would have to reassemble its pieces for next season as they would have a busy time ahead.

AC Serone 5–1 Al Qurija FC: The Seronese decided to say goodbye to the season with a bang. Al Qurija FC had been out of form throught the entirety of the second half of the season and it showed. Meanwhile, Munir and Audiol were too much in-form and scored 2 each, only for Ponce to complete the triad and score one herself as i Revodesi dominated i Musulmani.

Odiol Vinceti 2–5 U.S Scudelli
Internazionale Serone 1–2 AC Pomena

With both U.S Scudelli and AC Pomena playing at the same time, the anticipation for the new champion was intense. The Scudelliano were looking for the double, they would dominate Odiol Vinceti throught the entire game and their goal-hungry attacking trio of Christophe, Soares and Sidibe would do the trick. The matchday would end 4 minutes before the AC Pomena one. With the scoreline being in favor of the InterSe and seemingly in favor of a Scudelliano double, their fans would start celebrating.

Now for AC Pomena, they had some struggles against Serone, all of Ballesteros, Coste and Côté were out due to food poisoning prior to the matchday, leaving only Ganymede Garcia and an inexperienced Xavi Gasol and Pau Vives to play with him up front. InterSe would score first and this is when anxiety would set in. The Pomenienze would pressure forwards through the entire game and all 3 of the attackers would come close to equalising, but to no avail. When suddenly, a corner kick is given to Pomena following a failed dribbling attempt by Vives through Cessena. Viejo would be the one to take it, and Garcia would jump the highest to take a weak header that would eventually be deflected into the goal by Gasol. With the scores even, there was one last chance, at the 90+7 minute mark, Garcia would push forward, he'd desperately cross it in and Vives would be the one to capitalise on the opportunity, making it 1-2. Whatever celebrations the Scudelliano fans back at Serone and Scudelli were having soon turned into disbelief, as AC Pomena were crowned champions of Juvencus for the 7th time in history.

CAMPIONATO D'OSCIORU SEASON 2038-39 PREVIEW

The Campionato D'Oscioru has had many issues with season obscure and as such, it has dropped off in quality slightly in regards to what it has provided in the world stage and more specifically the Independents scene. The last time Osci clubs were allowed to participate in international club competitions was 2 seasons ago. While on IFCF Competitions Osci teams have not performed well, FFI competitions have been an alley in which they performed significantly better. Last time Osci clubs were given the chance to participate in FFI comeptitions, Club Catolica would walk out as the champion of the FFI League of Victors and disappear from international club competitions altogether with the rest of the Osci teams after participating in the Super Cup of Champions.

While the cores of most Osci teams have been dismantled and moved to the Juven Campionato, a lot of talent from all over Sonnel has remained to give the Osci Campionato the touch of brilliance it has lacked all this time. While financially, many clubs have struggled, the Osci Football Association has given support where it is due to provide for the teams in need. The clubs normally at the top of the table with the larger fanbases have not struggled at all and have strengthened their teams with some of the most valuable Osci talent around.

CAMPIONATO D'OSCIORU SEASON 2038-39 PART 1

2038-39 season is under way. The Campionato D'Oscioru might be having one of its most competitive seasons yet. Club Catolica, AC Cutti and Union Juven are all in contention for the Campinato, while Union Osce is close behind and on the chase for at least one FFI spot. Club Catolica in particular is looking to be the first club since Union Juven to make the repeat and what a way it would be to do it when a lot of its League of Victors winning squad has dispersed.

On the meanwhile, teams such as Universidad de Dronghi and AS Colparaiso have been struggling, but not as much as their squad dispersement would suggest. The big time loser in this situation would be Calderon FC.

CAMPIONATO D'OSCIORU SEASON 2038-39 PART 2

The main part of the season has ended on a cliffhanger! Club Catolica and AC Cutti are level on points and will be facing each other in the Championship Playoffs to determine a champion! Union Juven is 1 point behind both teams and will have to settle for 3rd place to make the most top-heavy league in recent memory.

Championship playoffs: Club Catolica 0–0 AC Cutti (0–0 AET) (1–3 pen.)

And in a dull matchday, where the goalkeepers and defenders shined shined the most, AC Cutti would defeat Club Catolica on the penalties. Barthélémy Vale would be decisive in his team's ability to keep the scores level as a shot by Ranieri would be stopped at the line at the 120th minute.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2039-40 PREVIEW

Last season was exactly the type of season the Campionato and the Juven pyramid in general needed to be revitalised. A tight 4-horse title race which resulted in Pomena's 7th Campionato victory, the reinforcement of Cordoba FC's stature as a powerful player in the league, Herona Calcio's heroics saving an embarrassing season? Perhaps, the relegation race that saw so many teams on the verge of depression. The rise of several talented players saw the most top-heavy league in recent ages, but as history has proven, it is the league finally getting its first historic and strong teams for the years to come. Meanwhile, the Copa Juve was tight as well, Petro Mohammed FC having a miracle run to the final, only to have their dreams shattered by U.S Scudelli in front of a crowd of 56 thousand fans in Torona. Not only were they the first team from the Serie B to reach the Copa final but also the first team from Al Qurija to ever contest for Juven silverware ever in history.

As for structural changes, this season there will be one change in effect and that is in regards to Juven participation in international competitions. Tight scheduling has resulted in the top teams having large rotations and numerous injuries. As a result, an FFI participational change will be as follows. The highest non-IFCF qualifying team will qualify for the Confederations' Trophy. With the current IFCF ranking of Juvencus, this means the 5th placed team will qualify for the Confederations' trophy. Exception should be made to the rule should the 5th placed team win the Copa Juve, in which case the berth will be moved to the 6th placed team.

The JFA and Banca Toro has distributed a total of 150 million Juven pesos across all clubs at both levels of the professional pyramid to spend on transfers, academies and other facility improvements. This halving of the total distribution of money has come after the clubs' broadcasting rights in Quebec with FAS TV, Tikariot Sports+ of Tikariot, Cardenao Sports Network of Cardenao, GS Supersports+ of Graintfjall, Xtra+ of Xanneria as well as its network in Sonnel in countries such as Oscioru, Silver Beach, Al Qurija and Montagnaverde have yielded enough profits for the clubs and the league itself. While a new deal is on the horizon with Aurora Sports of Tumbra from this season onward.

With project 100 taking shape, season oscura is becoming a thing of the past and the Juven Campionato will be taking the attention it deserves. Project 100 is taking its shape and hopefully it will be yielding good results for Juven football as a whole in the process.

Club: AC Guillermont
Nickname: Truppe Di Trincea
Manager: Vilhelmina D'Asti(Age 44)
Formation: 4-4-2
Ground: La Frontière, Pomena(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: Organisation du Juvénisme Pacifiste(For-Profit Organisation)
Rivals: AC Trata(main), AC Pomena(City), U.S Remeno(City), Porcara FC(City)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B Championship
Background: AC Guillermont created by high-class citizens that funded the Unification War effort just a few years after the war finished. Anti-monarchist, yet Juvenist in nature, it got a lot of support from high-class citizens who also funded the war efforts, yet received nothing in return after the war ended or by former soldiers that felt neglected by the Holy Emperor.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 3rd
Expectations: Battling in the bottom places for a chance to remain at the league.

Club: Union Pomena
Nickname: Gli unionisti
Manager: Fausto Dermieri(Age 46)
Ground: Stade Colonial, Pomena(Capacity: 19,000)
Sponsor: Jaustarius(Clothing brand)
Rivals: Everyone, they are violent
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Created by a combination of returnees from the colonies, pro-colonialists and other supporters of the spread of Juvenism across the multiverse. It is a relatively new club with limited history, however the backing it receives from its own supporters is staunch and at times extremely violent.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 2nd
Expectations: Whether or not they perform is negligible, however the goal is to be a nuisance to all teams, especially those from Al Qurija. Their backline will have several gaps following Friu's selling.

Club: Petro Mohammed FC
Nickname: al-Shuyukh
Manager: Salvio Bandera(Age 47)
Ground: Petro Mohammed Stadium, City of Qurija, Al Qurija(Capacity: 98,000)
Sponsor: Spirozzola(Building firm)
Rivals: Cordoba FC(cultural)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 2 Serie B
Background: Professional football in Al Qurija is a novelty, considering the national team itself is older than the prevalence of professional football in the country. However, the club was created by several Petro Mohammed(Qurijan national hero) sympathisers in the 1920's and played in local semi-professional leagues for a while.
Last season's finish: Serie B Champions! The only team to do it twice!
Expectations: Out of all Serie B teams, they seem to be the one that has learnt its lessons the best and will be aiming for a mid-table position.

Club: Toro Calcio
Nickname: I Gladiatori
Manager: Gianluca Sorrentini-Ilioski(Age 55)
Ground: Torre di Toro, Torona(Capacity: 26,000)
Sponsor: Armatori Uomiti(Clothing brand)
Rivals: USC Toro(Main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Created by internal immigrant factory workers in Torona in the late 19th century, Toro Calcio is one of the oldest sports clubs in the nation as a whole and one whose whole image, identity and purpose is centered around its unifying properties in its region as a whole. While never the strongest team, it always attracted the largest number of fans due to it being accepting of both French and Italian-speaking people and also served as an outlet to get rid of any negativity that was afflicting post-Unification War industrial workers, especially in a place as affected as Torona had been.
Last season's finish: 17th
Expectations: Survival is itching and itching further away, relegation bound.

Club: Odiol Vinceti
Nickname: Gli Oligarchi
Manager: Mansoor Saleh Amjad(Age 63)
Ground: Vinceti Catedral, Vinceti(Capacity: 53,000)
Sponsor: Odiol(Automobile & Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: U.S Remeno(secondary)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Originally found by shipyard workers as AC Vinceti, the side found limited, mild success without any major accolade of sorts. It mostly served as a representative of the eastern side of Juvencus and eventually saw all its stocks and holdings purchased by Odiol overnight. They gave the club a massive overhaul such as a new name and identity and gave it a strong budget(of over 200 million juven pesos) that it still has no idea how to use.
Last season's finish: 16th
Expectations: Expectations always remain high, despite the club's downwards spiral. Faith in Amjad is naive at best, considering the handling of the situation and near-relegation.

Club: Dortimao FC
Nickname: Os Soldados Tropicais
Manager: Carlos Silveira(Age 58)
Ground: Ninho do Dragão, Pacgliari(Capacity: 22,000)
Sponsor:Margarita's Symposium(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: S.S.C Pacgliari(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Dortimao FC was founded in the early stages of the 20th century by Osci and Juven veterans of war in Al Qurija. It was always a team playing in local leagues and lower divisions without major achievements. S.S.C Pacgliari managed to get their spot with the creation of the Campionato, which is something the club is still complaining about.
Last season's finish: 15th
Expectations: A stable team led by a stable man, Silveira is an honorable coach and great leader for this squad. The additions of several standout players from Serie B and several mid-table teams could be a make or break for this team.

Club: S.S.C Pacgliari
Nickname: Os Unidos
Manager: Cristina Guggi(Age 46)
Ground: Estádio da Concepção, Pacgliari(Capacity: 17,000)
Sponsor: Alva(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: Dortimao FC(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: Originally a team consisting of unionist military veterans from the second great war of unification, the team has been dubbed as Os Unidos for that reason and for being a unifying factor between the large chasm of all the new classes of the infant nation that Juvencus was at the time of the team's creation. Not necessarily a powerful team always, but sometimes it was definitely up there causing massive upsets.
Last season's finish: 14th
Expectations: The fans of the team have grown complacent with its place in the leaderboard and so has the board of the team. Not many changes were made and as such avoiding relegation is a more realistic goal for Os Unidos than pushing for the IFCF spots in the near future. Barely any changes aboard for this year as well.

Club: Internazionale Serone
Nickname: InterSe
Manager: Antoine De Juste(Age 52)
Ground: Stadio Orione, Serone(Capacity: 21,000)
Sponsor: Capdevilla(Communications)
Rivals: AC Serone(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Founded in the very busy and international Revoda Sea port of Serone, InterSe's history is long being one of the first clubs to ever be founded in Juvencus. Being in the 2nd largest heart of Revoda Sea trade in Juvencus, after Pomena, Serone has always been host to people of all walks of life from every side of the country. The team was founded 2 months after more localised side AC Serone was founded as a representative of the merchants, the dockyard workers and pretty much everyone else who felt unrepresented in the classes of Serone in the late 19th century. It enjoyed pretty heavy success in the 20th and early 21st centuries, winning a series of local tournaments and cups but in the modern era the team has not produced the same performances. Nevertheless, it is still a larger-than-life representation.
Last season's finish: 13th
Expectations: A respectable first season back at the campionato has raised the expectations to more mid-table finishes. Antoine De Juste's work at the helm is just enough, will it be a good upgrade in the grand scheme of things?

Club: USC Toro
Nickname: Gli Tauri
Manager: Constantino Salucci(Age 68)
Ground: AquaToro Arena, Torona(Capacity: 56,000)
Sponsor: AquaToro(Beverages, Investment & Gaming)
Rivals: Toro Calcio(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Team created by royalists of Torona as a representation of them as a minority at the time of the team's creation. Eventually more and more people started to support in the city after its successes in the footballing antiquity of Juvencus. Despite the initial setback of AquaToro's newest franchise, an instant rise back to the Campionato will see the team fighting to see itself back at the top of Juvencus.
Last season's finish: 12th
Expectations: Their projects and ambitions always fail to take off. It will take a miracle to see this reshaken team even stay in this division.

Club: AC Trata
Nickname: i Caroneri
Manager: Manuel Zangari(Age 56)
Ground: L'Aranconetta, Trata(Capacity: 16,000)
Sponsor: Serviggieri Motors(Vehicles)
Rivals: AC Guillermont(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: AC Trata was founded in the 1920s by a powerful mafiosi family centered in the area. After they were expelled to Montagnaverde, the rights were passed to Serviggieri Motors, a big motorcycle company closely affiliated to them. The support from the fanbase is unreal, but they obviously have a terrible reputation both for being anti-monarchist and for the affiliations to the nation-degenerating mafia.
Last season's finish: 11th
Expectations: AC Trata has proven to be the mid-table team of the nation, the fans expect nothing more and nothing less. They are itching this growth bit by bit with popular support and some frontline additions could help in the team's fight for a rise on the board.

Club: U.S Remeno
Nickname: Remeniotti Carabinieri
Manager: Urano Berpitulli(Age 59)
Ground: Nuovo Stadio della Popolazione, Remeno(Capacity: 51,000)
Sponsor: Upsol(Foods & drinks)
Rivals: AS Aguajú(main), Odiol Vinceti(secondary), AC Pomena(main), Porcara FC(main), AC Guillermont(main), USdC Catena(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: U.S Remeno is the 2nd oldest club in the nation's history, founded by returning merchants from Quebec as a consequence of even learning about the sport in the first place in the sports-crazed nation. Over time it has become a more left-leaning club and quite anti-monarchist to the point a lot of its fans and important people have been described as treasonous by the royalist fans across town in AC Pomena as well as their fiercest rivals from across the nation, AS Aguajú.
Last season's finish: 10th
Expectations: Always inconsistent, however some bomb transfers, especially one from an upcoming and future squadra talent in defensive leader Alberta Sorrentino could shake things up in this squad. At least FFI-bound with the improvements of the squad.

Club: S.S.C Tipoli
Nickname: Los Jaguares
Manager: Orso Pozzi(Age 54)
Ground: Il Metropolitano, Tipoli(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: The Wharf(Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: None, yet every maritime club of the west
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: A team made by dockyard workers in the harbour of Tipoli that slowly came to represent the city. Historically one of the strongest sides of the league and this has gone on in the modern era, despite some hiccups here and there. Everything maritime related is the club's joy and the club management shows a lot of support for every maritime trade treaty there is out there, especially ones that benefit the city of Tipoli.
Last season's finish: 9th
Expectations: Not a bad side, the lower finish on the table may be misleading compared to the team's performances on the pitch last season. Several transfers to cover the gaps were exactly what the team needed and will be a threat for a minimum of an FFI spot.

Club: Al Qurija FC
Nickname: i Musulmani
Manager: Duha Kamal El-Mofty(Age 48)
Ground: Farooq El-Abdellaoui Arena, City of Qurija, Al Qurija(Capacity: 34,000)
Sponsor: SooqRen(Automobile company)
Rivals: Petro Mohammed FC(main), Cordoba FC(cultural)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: A team to represent Qurijans in domestic Juven football was initially created in Córdoba by Qurijan immigrants in the city. For 50 years, it was Córdoba's largest team before being relocated to the motherland. Despite its past history in the city, it has fully integrated with Qurijan football standards now, instead of the ones in its previous home. The team is known as i musulmani due to its predominantly muslim fanbase.
Last season's finish: 8th
Expectations: Surprising stay in the 1st division and an impressive run to an 8th place finish. While the start of the reason was magical, the second half was nothing short of forgettable as their weaknesses were exposed.

Club: FC Piluzzi
Nickname: La Nuovoviola
Manager: Cesare Ajello(Age 53)
Ground: PegAssus Arena, Port-Pegassu(Capacity: 43,000)
Sponsor: Demichelli's Pizzeria(Food & Drinks)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(main), Picgliara Calcio(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve
Background: Port-Pegasu is a very large, affluent coastal city of 4 million people conjoined to much larger Scudelli(and accounts to its statistical area) and it consists of its largest port and business district. While in the day-to-day life there is a big split between dockyard workers and business men who keep everything running in the area, FC Piluzzi was created to mostly close the gap to the bigger threats of other, larger cities, such as Scudelli itself and Pomena of which former's fanbases tried to lure Port-Pegassu people in, with no success. The team was known for its light blue attire and conservative style of playing, however under this new management & ownership, this identity is switching to a purple attire and a mysterious new style of play that nobody has any idea about even after this long while.
Last season's finish: 7th
Expectations: The team's main purpose is to qualify for intercontinental football. From the moment Cesare Ajello hasn't delivered on such promises, his position could be in trouble. With the addition of Julio Pineda to the frontline, the team could be dreaming big.

Club: Herona Calcio
Nickname: Truppe del Deserto
Manager: Davide Aligheri(Age 60)
Ground: Stadio Artemio Alberti, Herona(Capacity: 31,000)
Sponsor: Planetta Oil(Oil company)
Rivals: FC Herone(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve
Background: The Italian-language representative of Herona and not Herone, as the Italian-speaking fans will correct you very aggressively. Herona Calcio is one of the most politically-aligned teams in the nation, known to fund and support all far-right and italian-language nationalist parties of their region. While the team's ultras carry major fights, the team has always played a relatively offensive style of football even in the more defensive eras of Juven football. Not necessarily successful ever, they always follow their goals to have their ideals not just heard, but enforced, at least in their own side of the city, il Quartiere, as it's known. The new Stadio Artemio Alberti is the new temple of the team and opposing and neutral fans will DEFINITELY not be allowed unless the ultras of the club deem fit.
Last season's finish: 6th
Expectations: Coming so close to defending the Copa while simultaneously saving a horrendous season only to finish just below the IFCF spots is worth it. The quality of this team is astounding, despite the departure of Stafylidi for greener pastures, Carlos Juancar will be a perfect substitute for his position. With Bergoglio-Bertolini and addition Luizinho up front, this team is building up to be a powerhouse.

Club: AS Aguajú
Nickname: Los Amazones
Manager: Luciano Gacinovic(Age 60)
Ground: Stadio Electrico, Aguajú(Capacity: 34,000)
Sponsor: Adelmercato(Supermarket Chain) + its own fanbase
Rivals: U.S Remeno(main), AC Melposa(main), AC Pomena(secondary), U.S Scudelli(secondary)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Supercopa Juve, 1 FFI League of Victors
Background: Aguajú's sensitive location on the border with Oscioru and an overlapping Juven/Osci region in general has brought sensitivies of nationalism much greater than in other places around the country. While the basis of language and religion is not really a barrier, the basis of Juven national consciousness has been a thought in the back of the head of many a people in AS Aguajú's fanbase. Created by the 2nd Aguajú Artillery Division in the post-unification years, the team has always had a militant character in regards to how it always takes what it wants because it has known no other way. This might result in a lot of the team or fanbase statements to be over the top and overcompensating in order to prove how Juven they really are. Which undoubtedly, the side has done a great job showcasing. They are the first and so far only team to win an international club trophy.
Last season's finish: 5th
Expectations: Gacinovic was so close to bringing back Los Amazones to the IFCF spots. Despite an alright season, several big defeats against stronger competition means that they have a few gaps to fill. The addition of Pereyra from Brinemouth in the place of Vicario means they have an experienced attacker in the frontlines, however the defensive gap could only be filled with young promising center back Saeta for the time being. They could aim high, as the quality is still there and unlike the top 4, they have no extra competitions to worry about.

Club: Cordoba FC
Nickname: Tarifa de puntos
Manager: Leonard Pitlinger(Age 50)
Ground: Alcazar Stadium, Córdoba(Capacity: 45,000)
Sponsor: Al-Rayyan Family Enterprise(Oil & Energy)
Rivals: USC Cuori(main), Petro Mohammed FC(cultural), Al Qurija FC(cultural)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Cordoba's the cradle of the most multicultural city in the entire nation of Juvencus and was created in the late 1890's to keep the city's inhabitants in check initially, while this worked even better and united them. A successful side in the Crescent Desert's leagues for a while, it was not until recently that it was incorporated into the pyramid of Juven Football and after being acquired by the half-Cordoban/half-Qurijan family of Al-Rayyan, Tarifa de puntos have significant financial backing rivaling those of the top sides and Odiol Vinceti.
Last season's finish: 4th
Expectations: Cordoba FC's on the rise as the most exciting prospect in Juven football currently. With a lot of homegrown talent, as well as several Qurijan and Osci players, this team could be aiming high following heavy investment over the last few transfer windows. With the addition of Edu Coste on the flank, Cordoba FC could be aiming to score a lot of goals this season and perhaps aim for a trophy.

Club: AC Serone
Nickname: I Revodesi
Manager: Jules Cannavaro(Age 41)
Ground: Il Porto, Serone(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: Oblisteria(Entertainment)
Rivals: Internazionale Serone(main), AC Pomena(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 3 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: The very first team to be founded in Serone and one of the first in the nation to be founded in general after Quebecois merchants brought the sport to the nation in the late 19th century. It was initially founded, supposedely, for the representation of everyone in Serone. Truth be told it was very much beneficial to merchants and traders than other classes of the city which led to the creation of the rival side, Internazionale Serone just 2 months after. AC Serone is historically a dominant club and one of the few to lift the Campionato more than once which gives their name a certain weight much above the rest of the clubs in the league and more on par with AC Pomena itself, despite being more overshadowed by its success.
Last season's finish: 3rd, Supercopa Winners!
Expectations: Cannavaro is not at risk of losing his job only because the title race was tight last season and AC Serone were truly title contenders for the better part of the season. Gennaro Munir, Faustino Audiol have both stayed in the team and will provide an explosive attack while Sara Ponce also extended her own contract. I Revodesi are always title contenders, if not winners this season.

Club: U.S Scudelli
Nickname: Les géants
Manager: Miguel Santos(Age 40)
Ground: Il Scudelliano, Scudelli(Capacity: 55,000)
Sponsor: Goamarca(Supermarket & Hypermarket Chain) + Gregg's Restaurant(Food & Drinks:From Quebec&Shingoryeo)
Rivals: AC Pomena(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), FC Piluzzi(main), Picgliara Calcio(main) + most of the nation, they also hate them
Kits:
Trophies Won: 2 Campionato Juvencus, 2 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: Team created by bitter descendants of Scudelliano soldiers who fought during the unification war in the side of the Independentists. Team slowly turned into Scudelli and the whole East's representation in the now unified nation, with ideals that turned from bitter resentment to more liberal and free. The team was very successful in the pre-modern era while it has not been too bad in the modern era, despite its ups downs. It has one of the most extensive trophy cabinets in the nation and it shows with its quality on the pitch.
Last season's finish: 2nd, Copa Winners!
Expectations: Gael Gaetan stepped off his position as U.S Scudelli coach following the first Copa Juve victory in a long while. The team had been administrated smoothly, but Gaetan seems to entering "greener" pastures. In his place comes Miguel Santos, a mostly unproven coach who was his assistant and has taken a lot of influence from him. Otherwise, the team is built well enough as to not need transfers at the moment. However, the stakes are high, as always. They are title contenders.

Club: AC Pomena
Nickname: The Uhlaner
Manager: Adamo Rosso(Age 44)
Ground: Stadio Gianluca IV, Pomena(Capacity: 85,000)
Sponsor: RAPOM(Broadcasting & Entertainment) + Mother Cerveza(Drinks:From Cardenao)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(main), AC Serone(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), U.S Remeno(main), Porcara FC(main), AC Guillermont(main), USdC Catena(main) + literally everyone else in the country, everyone hates them
Kits:
Trophies Won: 7 Campionato Juvencus, 3 Copa Juve
Background: The very first team to be created in the nation in 1893 by Pomenienze merchants who came back from a voyage to Quebec and returned with this brand new idea in mind about the beautiful sport which was brought not that long before that. Royalist in nature, it is naturally also the Holy Emperor's favorite team and with it, all his supporters find solace and relation to him through the team. Though outlawed for any powerful politicians(Parlamento Reale representatives + the royal family) to fund any teams, his support for the team has garnered the support of millions of Juven both in Juvencus and abroad. The most successful team of the modern era and in general, it has a record of 6 Campionato victories and 3 Copa Juve victories, which also serves as a record. The Uhlaner are the only team to have won the double and also the first team to have ever qualified to the group and knockout stages of a major IFCF tournament.
Last season's finish: Champions!
Expectations: Ancelotti gave the best farewell gift he could give, a 7th Campionato. Edu Coste just left for a new challenge at rivals Cordoba FC, however there is no concern as the rest of the team is untouched and much of the young talent will be taking over the helm. Adamo Rosso quit from his job as assistant coach in la squadra, however he could be implementing his form of the Pomenienze at the best team in Juvencus right now, as they are pursuing an 8th Campionato and a strong intercontinental run.

SUPERCOPA JUVE

AC Pomena 3–3 U.S Scudelli (3–4 AET)
@ Petro Mohammed Stadium, City of Qurija, Al Qurija(Attendance: 96,222)

A Juven Clasico for the Supercopa is a first of probably many to happen in the future. The first Supercopa final to happen in Qurijan soil, the Petro Mohammed Stadium in Al Qurija was filled to the brim with fans of Juven and Qurijan descent ready to boo both teams in an echo of boos unparalleled to any other game in the nation. This stopped neither side from performing the highest scoring Supercopa final of all time. U.S Scudelli had secured an 1-3 advantage by half time with each of Sidibe, Soares and Christophe scoring while Côté had reduced the gap to just 2 goals right before half-time. Edu Coste's absence from the team was obvious, as the team would have to rely to younger talent to replace the gap. A magnificent Xavi Gasol blitz brace in the 70th and 73rd minutes made scores level, while Garcia came close to changing the tide of the game in the 88th minute, with Ungaro saving the game by a mere inch. With the game heading into extra time, both teams delivered the pressure with whatever energy they had left and while the game seemed to be heading to penalties, an Ignacio Lopes long-range shot would be capitalised to make it 3-4 and give Les géants their 2nd Supercopa.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2039-40 PART 1

First 10 matchdays have passed and the league has mostly shaped up. U.S Remeno is currently experiencing an early season surge to the top places of the league and is presenting itself as a threatening side. Will they repeat last season and fall hard on their faces or keep consistency and remain a genuine title contender? On the other hand, their rivals Los Amazones are struggling at mid-table struggling to find said consistency despite the addition of Joao Pereyra into the lineup, they may be regretting selling Vicario after all. While AC Serone and U.S Remeno have a healthy difference from the rest, the league is at too early a stage to determine a victor at the moment, however with I Revodesi being on fire, they could be heading towards a 4th title victory.

Several matches either reflect the teams' positions or they do not. They have stood out for their high-scoring or their high interest rivalry or points-wise and there have been multiple standouts since matchday one.

Matchday 1:
USC Toro 4–7 AC Pomena: The Uhlaner have started a tradition of started the seasons in high-scoring fashion, but unlike last season they found themselves the victors of this bout. Both teams relied heavily to their Osci talent, as Bonhomme of USC Toro would score a brace and give an assist, while Lando Côté would score yet another first matchday hat-trick. AC Pomena's arsenal would be too strong to deal with as Garcia, Gasol and Vives would all score once before Ballesteros would complete the scoring and giving it to the champions.

Matchday 2:
U.S Scudelli 3–4 USC Toro: Defeating USC Toro is not for everyone, is it? Bonhomme's form(and another brace of both goals and assists, as did Audio Laudi) at the front of Gli Tauri is exactly what they needed to scrape a victory over the Supercopa winners. Kouyaté and Sidibe were on form, with a goal and a brace each, but this would not be enough of a fight

Matchday 3:
U.S Remeno 3–1 AS Aguajú: Joao Pereyra would enter the Nuovo Stadio della Popolazione with an echo of boos to his name and rightfully so, as he had joined the team's bitter rivals. Both teams were coming off the back of serious victories yet turbulent starts and needed a victory. Pereyra would score against his former team in no more than 10 minutes, which he would not celebrate, yet tumultuous jeers would be heard all over the stadium. I Remeniotti Carabinieri would pick it up from there and Legionario would score a brace just before half-time. Los Amazones would be desperate for an equaliser and spread their backline in unforgiving fashion, yet they were unable to break through the Carabinieri. Jaumet Ildefons would complete the victory in the 87th minute as U.S Remeno would pick up from then on.

AC Serone 3–7 AC Pomena: To think AC Serone would get crushed this harshly by AC Pomena this early in the season is not so absurd to think about, considering how top teams had been cruising through each other last season. Il Porto would be the sight of a frozen atmosphere, since the Uhlaner would be leading 1-5 by half-time. Alfonso Ramos would be the provider of 2 goals in quick succession towards Faustino Audiol, which would reduce the scoreling to 3-5 by the 77th minute and while i Revodesi would get close to scoring more, AC Pomena's youth talent would come to the rescue once again. Firstly with Gasol scoring a screamer from long range and then Vives providing Garcia with his 2nd goal of the night.

Matchday 4:
AC Pomena 1–5 Petro Mohammed FC: Serie B champions not only defeating but crushing the Serie A champions away is unheard of in most leagues but not in the Juven Campionato. In all fairness, the Pomenienze were lacking the majority of their talents and had to lineup a youth team that is also inexperienced on the field. Mehmet Kurtuluş showed his prowess, providing a hat-trick of assists to his teammates, with Gautto and Ahmad Ali scsoring a brace each, before Robert Sinani would complete the team's complete cruise at the Stadio Gianluca IV.

U.S Scudelli 5–1 AC Serone: Munir would break the ice immediately at Il Scudelliano which would serve as AC Serone's only chance of worth the entire game. The vengefulness of les géants would show its true colors as Sidibe and Soares would score a brace each and left-back Maria Cortes would finish the game with a header before i Revodesi could ever react. With AC Serone losing 2 games in such a devastating fashion against its most dangerous rivals, nobody would expect them to unleash a wrath to get where they are today.

Matchday 6:
Al Qurija FC 1–2 Cordoba FC: Farooq El-Abdellaoui Arena bore witness to a tight game between Al Qurija FC and Cordoba FC. The reason this matchday is of note is because of the refereeing decisions. While Cordoba FC played better football, refereeing decisions were in Al Qurija FC's favor, as an unnecessary penalty was given in the 66th minute, capitalised by Fausto Molina. However, not letting it slip, Adrian Al-Hamdawi would score a quick brace in the 84th and 89th minutes to solidify a victory that would remain for the ages. Following the game, the players refused to shake hands, while Al-Hamdawi would celebrate both goals by pointing to his ears as i Musulmani's fans would boo.

Matchday 9:
AC Pomena 3–1 U.S Scudelli: All that the Uhlaner had on their minds was to get revenge for the Supercopa loss, the Scudelliano side on the other needed a victory to reduce any and all gaps to AC Serone. Soares would break the ice, but that was not to be as Ganymede Garcia would score 2 while Raul Viejo would score a long range banger to make it 3-1. AC Pomena continues to remain dominant in Campionato derbies against their rivals, while Miguel Santos is left wondering where his team went wrong.

AC Serone 9–1 Union Pomena: There is not much to say about the game. I Revodesi unleashed the storm against newly-promoted Union Pomena side. With 6 different scorers of which Iturraspe stood out the most, as he scored 2 and provided 4 assists to his teammates.

COPA JUVE FIRST ROUND & ROUND OF 32

Copa Juve is surprising this season, as Herona Calcio is out of contention because of a ban due to battery charges towards their fans. An exciting round of 32 ensued, as i Revodesi would take a painful revenge towards AC Pomena on extra time with a Munir punisher on the 112th minute. In the meanwhile Los Amazones were eliminated by league trailers S.S.C Tipoli in a HUGE upset.

International Club Competitions:

IFCF Champions Cup - First Qualifying Round:

(PIS)                       SK Aasiaat Harbour    1–4     AC Pomena                        (JUE)   0–2   1–2

IFCF Champions Cup - Second Qualifying Round:

(INS)                      Southbay Riveria FC    1–4    AC Pomena                                (JUE)   1–3   0–1

The return of clubs from the Polar Islandstates, an once renowned nation when it comes to all matters regarding football signalled a lot of bells back at the Pomenienze camp. Despite a seemingly-easy victory at Harbour Walk, where Côté and Garcia would each score to give a safety pillow of 2 goals, the match at the Stadio Gianluca IV would be a different case. The Polarian champions would enter the match bloodthirsty scoring early on with Henschen and they would come close to equalising on a number of occasions. However, a Vives-Gasol masterclass would provide yet another lifeline for the Campionato winners as they would head forward to the next qualifying round.

An Independents' giants show-off would see Southbay Riviera of Indusse be next in AC Pomena's path. Raul Viejo would be pivotal in the team's victory, providing a hattrick of assists to Vives, Gasol and Garcia heading with yet another 2-goal advantadge to Stadio Gianluca. Mirella Venus' international club football debut in the Uhlaners' colors would also be the one to see her scoring first with a header after a cross from Gasol and locking AC Pomena's spot in the 3rd qualifying round.

After that game, AC Pomena coach Adamo Rosso complained about the Campionato's ranking being so low despite AC Pomena's consistent showing in international club competitions. Stating that "We need to lock a Champions League Group spot as soon as possible."

IFCF Challengers Cup - First Qualifying Round:

(JUE)                               Cordoba FC    4–1    Sila Saykonur                            (PYA)   3–1   1–0

(LIS)                           AS Virtus 1904    1–2    U.S Scudelli                             (JUE)   1–1   0–1

(SPI)                               Sripala FC    1–2   AC Serone                            (JUE)   1–1   0–1  (aet)

IFCF Challengers Cup - Second Qualifying Round:

(TAX)                            Standard Lily    7–1    U.S Scudelli                             (JUE)   5–0   2–1

(JUE)                               Cordoba FC    2–0    Club ESF                                 (VAL)   2–0   0–0

(AUP)                             Pontmeosont    3–2    AC Serone                                (JUE)   2–2   1–0

Of all teams in the Challengers Cup, nobody would expect Cordoba FC to get through both qualifying rounds and in as such a comfortable fashion as it did. Al-Hamdawi and Zekeria were a fiery duo against both Sila Saykonur and Club ESF, with the latter being the biggest international club football upset the club as pulled through in its short history in the competition. Cernoia was also a commanding presence on the pitch across both opponents and it showed.

U.S Scudelli was not meant to qualify past AS Virtus 1904, but here it was, facing Standard Lily and getting crushed. A lot of gaps existed within the team, however Santos' managing of the situation was horrible and maybe the club would be more focused on the Cup Winners' Cup.

AC Serone found itself in an unlucky situation. Despite a Tulappa masterpiece saving i Revodesi both in the second leg against Sripala of the Southern Palm Islands and against Pontmeosont in the first leg, it would just not be enough as the latter team would get a last minute winner and knock i Revodesi out of contention early on.

IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy - Second Qualifying Round

(JUE)                             Union Pomena    3–1    Last Night                               (CHA)   2–1   1–0

(JUE)                           AC Guillermont    3–1    Youyi                                    (NIX)   2–0   1–1

In a competition dubbed as a time-waste by the media, Union Pomena defeated fellow Sonnelians Last Night of Chartistan pretty convincingly. On the other hand AC Guillermont beat Youyi of Naixi, an upcoming small nation a bit less convincingly. With the gaps they both have, their survival at the competition is negligible.

IFCF Cup Winners' Cup - Preliminary Round

(AUP)                 Auprussia NF    0–4    U.S Scudelli                 (JUE)   0–2   0–2

IFCF Cup Winners' Cup - First Round Proper

(JUE)                 U.S Scudelli    5–3    O.K. Athletic Moscaritolo    (GEE)   4–2   1–1

The change of focus towards the Cup Winners' Cup seems to have been yielding results for the Scudelliano team. A comfortable walk past Auprussia NF, with Giuseppe Conte dictating the pace of the game, while Sidibe and Soares scoring a brace each home and away respectively gave U.S Scudelli a much deserved spot in the Cup proper.

Il Scudelliano was the sight of a high-scoring bout against Geektopian O.K Atheltic Moscaritolo. Les géants expertly played attractive, aggressive football resembling the Pomenienze of the national team with a high-pressure line. Soares scoring a hat-trick with Aurelien Vitolo completing a great 4-2 victory for his team. The away bout was much closer, as the team closed on and tried to keep the advantadge it had gotten in the first leg. It worked wonders with Christophe nailing the last one in the coffin.

FFI League of Victors - Round of 32

(JUE)                    AC Pomena    3–2    LVC Lembar                   (CKR)   1–2   2–0

(TRL)                Eugene Troger    3–1    U.S Scudelli              (JUE)   3–0   0–1

AC Pomena is always one hell of a side in the FFI League of Victors. Despite a home loss to LVC Lembar of Cakranegara, a Vives brace would be enough to smash through the competition and avoid an embarrassing early elimination.

U.S Scudelli on the other has put all of its focus on the Cup Winners' Cup, whether or not the gamble will work is up to the players. But a deep run could be in the works, however losing so early on in an FFI competition is disappointing, however they could have a 2nd chance at the Confederations' Trophy.

FFI Confederations' Trophy - Round of 32

(CKR)                   LVC Lembar    4–2    AC Serone                    (JUE)   4–1   0–1

(JUE)                U.S Scudelli    5–2    Luther City FC               (APH)   3–2   2–0

AC Serone got crushed away against LVC Lemba, with a hard-fought home game ending a victory that would just not be enough. Audiol was the only player who played respectably amongst both legs, with somewhat of a support from Sara Ponce. There will be a lot of thinking in the locker rooms following that upset.

On the other hand, U.S Scudelli, while fully focused on the Cup Winners' Cup, defeating Aphrilia's Luther City FC somewhat comfortably while depleting some valuable resources. Christophe proved to be valuable for the Copa Winners among both legs.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO PART 2

S.S.C Tipoli seems to have managed to get out of its sticky situation at the bottom of the table. U.S Remeno has fallen victim to its own inconsistency yet again. AC Serone on the other has bottled a huge lead over rivals AC Pomena and U.S Scudelli, which have not only caught up but are also about to overtake i Revodesi. However, for the time being they seem to be clinging on top. The fight for the FFI and IFCF spots is also as alive as ever with any team placed 4th to 7th able to finish in the much needed top 5.

Several matches stood out, including the high-scoring nature of the league which has become the norm at this point. Rivalries are being made or developed to the form of cultural tradition in the Juven fields. Political messages are being brought in games by Juven and Qurijan fans alike, indicating a simmering ethnic rivalry ON TOP of a sports rivalry.

Matchday 11:
AC Pomena 1–1 AS Aguajú: Pau Puig was everywhere on the backline for Los Amazones for the better part of the game and he was a big part of the reason his team were ahead for the majority of the match. An assist by Pereyra to Marcos Henry had given them the advantadge from early on, which AS Aguajú tried to increase. In the meanwhile, the Pomenienze were desperate for an equaliser for the majority of the game, this was filled by an on-form Raul Viejo banger from the 27 meter mark.

Matchday 12:
Union Pomena 1–7 Herona Calcio: Herona Calcio, albeit being a victim of high scoreline defeats is also able to server some devastating scorelines themselves. Martina Gaggo was everywhere on the pitch and naturally by serving one of the best performances in the league scoring a hat-trick of both goals and assists, she gave her team the rightful victory over Union Pomena.

Matchday 14:
U.S Remeno 0–5 AC Serone: AC Serone are not to be messed with, a team with dangerous players in all positions and the best attack in the league currently. Tulappa is in dangerous form lately, as are Sara Ponce and Iturraspe who were a force to be reckoned with throught the entire game. An Inturraspe bicycle goal ending on the top left side of the Remeniotti goal was the highlight of the night, which led to the applause of the Remeniotti fanbase despite its frustration.

Matchday 16:
AC Guillermont 1–6 U.S Scudelli & Cordoba FC 7–0 AC Trata & Dortimao FC 1–8 Herona Calcio: Matchday 16 was filled with powerful performances from some of the big dogs of the league. 21 goals shared between them in just a matchday provided for a flurry of goals to watch.

Al Qurija FC 1–1 AC Pomena: Refereeing on Al Qurija FC's favor has given rise to speculations of match fixing by some big figures in the team. Several harsh fouls including a penalty not given to to Garcia paved way for violence to ensue. Juven fans fought against the Qurijan fans on the stadium and outside on the streets, which resulted to the injury of 31 fans, thankfully no deaths were recorded. Both teams were punished with no fans on their next 2 home games.

Matchday 17:

AC Pomena 3–5 Cordoba FC: AC Pomena seems to have paid the price from its punishment all too quick. Cordoba FC would dominate the tempo of the game as would the Tarifa's frontline. Despite prolific counter-attacks by the Pomenienze, it would not be enough as defender Ivan Stefanovic would score a brace of headers to complete the game. Bardhyl Imeri, would be of pivotal important in multiple occasions throught the game and it turns out the absence of fans worked out in Cordoba FC's favor after all.

AC Serone 0–4 Petro Mohammed FC: Petro Mohammed and being in luck when it comes to facing top teams on the road. AC Serone lacked a lot of its top talent, but not enough to say it fielded a youth team. However, it was not enough as the Qurijans would cruise through with Mehmet Kurtuluş having yet another good day assisting twice and scoring once, as Ali, Malik and Aboubakar would all score to complete an upset for the ages.

Matchday 18:

Internazionale Serone 5–0 AC Serone: I Revodesi have started to choke their lead. Losing to ALL rivals with such huge scorelines is an embarrassment they might not want to repeat on the second half of the season. Fortuno Ajello, Carridi and Iosifidis all dominated throught the game for the InterSe and Ajello scoring his 10th goal of the season has landed some eyes on him.

Matchday 22:
AS Aguajú 3–1 U.S Remeno: Joao Pereyra took his divine obligation to heart and scored his first hat-trick against the team that mistreated him the most last time they met. An explosive Pereyra scored a perfect hat-trick which included a volley goal with his right foot, a penalty with his left and a header. Each time, he would celebrate his heart out meaning the relationship with the club that helped elevate him to stardom was over.

AC Pomena 0–3 AC Serone: AC Serone is keeping a safe distance from AC Pomena after a destructive showcase in the Stadio Gianluca IV. Munir, Ciampa, Audiol were protagonists in AC Serone's first derby victory this season. Is its lesson learnt?

Matchday 25:

Cordoba FC 1–0 Al Qurija FC: The Alcazar stadium bore witness to yet another near butchery. Imeri had a busy day under the posts as Al Qurija FC were given 2 penalties, both of which he saved. A flurry of opportunities, mostly due to refereeing decisions benefitting the Qurijan side forced the Juven international to a series of saves that kept his squad alive. A goal by Zekeria, assisted by the man himself, Al-Hamdawi was the only goal scored and enough for the Tarifa to move forward.

COPA JUVE ROUND OF 16 & QUARTER-FINALS

We are going to have a new Copa winner this season. U.S Scudelli was elimianted by AC Serone that has been explosive in the Copa this season, despite the close fight. Audiol is the his team's biggest asset this season, following the footsteps of his older brother. Cordoba FC, while alive, has struggled against 2 Serie B sides in a row. Completing the final 4 list are U.S Remeno and Petro Mohammed FC with the latter hoping to get some semblance of vengeance and lift their first Copa this season.

International Club Competitions:

IFCF Champions Cup - Third Qualifying Round:

(JUE)                                AC Pomena    4–3    Italia Mosfleet                          (ELM)   2–2   2–1

IFCF Champions Cup - Playoff Round:

(JUE)                                AC Pomena    3–3 p  Athletic Saint Eleanor                   (EXT)   2–2   1–1  (2–3 pen)

Unbeaten yet defeated. The Pomenienze had lost to the penalties against Athletic Saint Eleanor, yet another defeat for Juven football against its known bogey country. Before that, a hard-fought victory against Elmyian champions in Italia Mosfleet, a bout watched by former Juvencus assistant manager, now-turned Elmyian national manager Pau Porras. Despite heavy spirits, AC Pomena has secured its spot in the group stages of the IFCF Challengers Cup at least, as the season is not over yet. The depth of the Pomenienze is scary, to say the least and they could be having a strong campaign.

IFCF Challengers Cup - Third Qualifying Round:

(JUE)                               Cordoba FC    1–7    Mancodas Athletic FC                     (PFA)   0–3   1–4

The Tarifa was crushed by the Poafmersian giants in Mancodas Athletic FC both home and away. Defensive errors coupled with a lackluster attack resulted in another battering off of a Juven side from international club competitions.

IFCF Challengers Cup - Group Stage:

1  AC Pomena                                     JUE   6  3  3  0  14   8   6  12

A 14-game undefeated streak in all IFCF competitions, it is clear that this AC Pomena team is strong and sees them being the first Juven team to top their group in any major IFCF competition. Adamo Rosso has built a concrete unit and with the right transfers as well as tactics, they could even see themselves being a constant contender in any major competition. The future is also bright for their young talent, under the tutelage of Ballesteros and Garcia the likes of Côté, Vives and Gasol could become the scariest Juven club football trio seen yet.

IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy - Third Qualifying Round:

(YZH)                               Beian Bats    3–1    Union Pomena                             (JUE)   2–1   1–0

The second division teams all collectively seem to have quit. Focusing on their survival seems to be their main goal and as such, they were defeated in closely-knit games. Petro Mohammed FC was reverse-swept, with stamina being its main weakness point.

IFCF Cup Winners' Cup - Round of 16

(JUE)                 U.S Scudelli    3–2    Prinsen af Rosen AC          (CPC)   0–2   3–0  (aet)

The Scudelliano side has officially had the deepest campaign of any Juven team in the Cup Winners' Cup. An impressive table turn against Prinsen af Rosen AC despite a horrendous home defeat courtesy of a Christophe first half hat-trick. U.S Scudelli was also competitive against Atletik, managing to equalise a 2-0 deficit inside Novi Atletskistadion with a Conte masterclass handing out 2 assists to Sidibe and Soares but falling just short on penalties.

FFI League of Victors - Round of 16

(JUE)                    AC Pomena    6–1    Pontmeosont                  (AUP)   2–1   4–0

FFI League of Victors - Quarter-finals

(TAX)                  Raven Thöni    0–3    AC Pomena                    (JUE)   0–2   0–1

Pontmoseont had stopped AC Serone a couple months ago for the IFCF Challengers Cup, however AC Pomena's international football pedigree runs much deeper. The Uhlaner had barely scraped a victory at the Stadio Gianluca IV thanks to a Garcia-Ballesteros masterclass in the final minutes. At Gaul Terestoun stadium though, things were much different, Garcia has served his role for the team really well by scoring a brace, while Gasol and Viejo would score once each in a devastating display of dominance sending AC Pomena to the quarter-finals.

Taxhavn's most dominant team as of recently was facing off against the champions of Juvencus. The previous meetup between a Juvencus and a Taxhavn side had let to a destruction of the Juven side. However, AC Pomena would take the representation of the nation to its shoulders yet again. Gasol and Vives would reign supreme up front in Taxhavn, with Vives scoring a penalty and assisting Gasol. Meanwhile at Stadio Gianluca IV, Raven Thöni came close to scoring multiple times, with Kovacec being a threatening presence up front. However, a Ballesteros banger on the 88th minute would lock AC Pomena's qualification to yet another League of Victors semi-final.

FFI Confederations' Trophy - Round of 16

(JUE)                 U.S Scudelli    3–5    Meldrum Fall                 (SVI)   3–2   0–2

U.S Scudelli is a victim of its own fatigue. Much like the Cup winners' cup, the team would manage an impressive victory only to fall short. However this time, by being reverse swept itself. A respectful international club football season for the supercopa winners, however with a lot of questions as to how strong a pedigree they can leave in international football.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO END OF SEASON REVIEW

AC Pomena are INEVITABLE! The Uhlaner grabbed their record-setting 8th title by taking charge of the campaign and pushing through all the way possessing one hell of an attack, scoring 101 goals. The title race was finished earlier than other years, with i Revodesi being unable to hold the lead they had otherwise held onto so tightly through the entire season. The top 5 has come down to a lineup we have become so accustomed to through the years as the league is becoming more and more top heavy.

There were several games that stood out, including the dramatic finish of the title race involving the 2 winningest Campionato clubs in AC Serone and AC Pomena. The value of some players through the entire year was displayed on the pitch, showcasing a quality unlike any other.

Matchday 25:
U.S Scudelli 1–5 Herona Calcio: Davide Aligheri's side was simply too dominant against the Scudelliano. Rosa Del Rio, Fantasia Bergoglio-Bertolini and Luizinho were everywhere on the pitch scoring all the goals of the Truppe del Deserto. Of particular note was Bergoglio-Bertolini's run with the ball across half the pitch, nutmegging both Conte and Lopes before lobbing it over Ungaro's head.

Matchday 26:
Dortimao FC 1–6 Cordoba FC: Edu Coste's value for his new team has been understated this season, however in this game it is where it shined the most. A 4-goal game providing a comfortable victory for the Tarifa on their push towards both the title and defending an IFCF spot. Bardhyl Imeri was also of extreme importance throught the majority of the game, saving multiple chances by the home side in a game that could have easily finished in a 3-6 or even 4-6 scorline if it weren't for him.

Matchday 28:
U.S Scudelli 3–1 AC Pomena: No game is more enjoyable or unpredictable than the Juven Clasico. The Scudelliano had reshaped themselves following a victory against Trata, while the Pomenienze were entering murky waters after a surprise draw to Toro Calcio. Nevertheless, Vives would break the ice, coming close to making it 0-2 by half-time. In the second half things would change though, as Soares and Sidibe would pair up to cook the perfect storm and score 3 goals in just 10 minutes to seal the deal against their eternal rivals.

Matchday 29:
AC Serone 1–4 AC Guillermont: Guillermont has been a protagonist in several high-scoring surprise results themselves. Nothing would compare to this one however, as the tough luck of i Revodesi combined with Truppe di Trincea's high conversion rate would bring an end result that is a shock.

Matchday 32:
Cordoba FC 3–0 Petro Mohammed FC: Zekeria, Coste. WHAT A DUO. Even Al Hamdawi cannot show up, there will always be some incredible cannoneers in that team. Petro Mohammed FC could not register a single chance on target for the entire match, which makes one think of the defensive capabilities of the Tarifa.

Matchday 34:
USC Toro 1–1 AC Serone & AC Guillermont 0–5 AC Pomena: Where i Revodesi cannot, the Uhlaner can. A destructive frontline showcase, with 5 diferent goalscorers and the Pomenienze get out of La Frontière unscathed. On the other hand, Serone's main team is left wondering where it went wrong while struggling against relegation-bound USC Toro.

Union Pomena 1–11 U.S Scudelli: Union Pomena are doomed, that is it. U.S Scudelli also become the first team to have 11 different goalscorers out of 15 players that managed to enter the pitch. The works and machinations of this team are amazing.

Matchday 35:
AC Pomena 0–0 Al Qurija FC & AC Serone 0–0 S.S.C Pacgliari: When the Pomenienze choke, i Revodesi choke even more when their one end of season opportunity presents itself. 2 scoreless bouts, but AC Pomena remain in front for the time being.

Matchday 36:
Toro Calcio 2–0 AC Serone & Cordoba FC 3–5 AC Pomena: The Uhlaner have all but guaranteed their 8th title victory now, Coste might have scored a brace against his former team, but Garcia and Gasol were just too good for them. Meanwhile i Revodesi lose to Toro Calcio with Audiol being the matchday's unlucky man up front.

Matchday 37:
AC Pomena 1–1 Dortimao FC & Petro Mohammed FC 4–4 AC Serone: This is it, the Uhlaner are champions of Juvencus for a record 8th time, more times than everyone else combined and have solidified their spot amongst the all-time elite of Juven football. Petro Mohammed FC proved to be too tough a nut to crack for i Revodesi who gave it their all but saw fatigue getting the best of them.

Matchday 38:
U.S Remeno 1–3 AC Pomena: Ballesteros took this game in his own hands scoring a wonderful hat-trick for his team to finish as both champions and winners. Meanwhile, Viejo was dominant in the midfield, having a high passing accuracy rate around 94% in the game and assisting once. Meanwhile the rest of the league is left wondering how they could stop the best team in the league not just currently but of all-time.

COPA JUVE SEMI-FINALS

Petro Mohammed FC has proven itself to be a cult team for the Copa Juve, going to two straight finals and defeating AC Serone in such a convincing fashion is testament to the pashion of the Qurijan side. U.S Remeno on the other hand, they are heading to the final as outsiders but 1 thing is for sure and that is we are seeing a new Copa winner.

COPA JUVE BONERE FINAL

Petro Mohammed FC 1–0 U.S Remeno
@ Stadio Infernale, Bresca, Oscioru (Attendance: 30,547)

The first Copa Juve final held outside of Juven soil is held in neighboring Oscioru between a Juven and a Qurijan side. Petro Mohammed FC finally take home the Copa Juve, becoming the first Qurijan team to do so. Aboubakar was the scorer of the singular goal in a defensively sound game, after scoring a penalty on the 77th minute and turning into a cult hero in both fanbase and nation.

IFCF Challengers Cup - Round of 32

(KOR)                              Maethoru SC    3–1    AC Pomena                                (JUE)   3–1   0–0

The Uhlaner needed just one defeat to be eliminated and that came at the hands of the Maethoru SC. Despite performing well on the pitch across 2 legs, they just did not have the conversion rate that they had in previous games. However remaining undefeated until this point in the campaign is surely remarkable for the Pomenienze and they could be carrying the momentum forward in future seasons and in other competitions.

FFI League of Victors - Semi-finals

(JUE)                    AC Pomena   5–3    Keppal Cosmos                (ZWZ)   3–2   2–1

Meeting sides from such a footballing powerhouse as Zwangzug is always a hussle for Juven teams, even of the pedigree of AC Pomena. Despite getting victories across both legs, they both proved to be extremely difficult wins and thankfully the talent of Garcia showed across both legs scoring 2 clutch goals in the last minutes of both games.

FFI League of Victors - Final
@ Adityavarma Kulashekara International Stadium, New Hind City (capacity 131,561), Indusse

(JUE)                 AC Pomena    2–3 e  Spenson Suburbia           (ZWZ)  (2–2 FT)

The visit to Indusse for the FFI League of Victors final saw the Juven team in a hostile enviroment and rightfully so. La squadra had only recently defeated one of the best Indussean teams in years in the Independents Cup final not too long ago. Mentally, this served as a factor for some errors and mistakes, which saw Spenson Suburbia lead with 1-2 by half-time. The second half of the final saw a desperate Pomena side trying to score goals with the solution coming by a strike from Ballesteros on the 87th minute. The game would enter into extra time, but sadly Spenson Suburbia would emerge victorious thanks to an extra time goal.

Despite this defeat, AC Pomena could end the season proud of its efforts and despite the fatigue. This could serve as a lesson for Juven clubs in the future and step up their game and showcase the quality of Juven football across the multiverse.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2040-41 PREVIEW

2039-2040 was a season that saw Campionato enter an era of top-heavy gameplay. The top teams were tight on the higher side of the leaderboard, giving little space for everyone else to catch up. The Pomenienze won their 8th trophy and have solidified themselves as THE team in the nation, while it has left the other teams wondering how they could possibly even catch up. The league saw the rise of talents that would eventually enter the national team for World Cup 96's qualifiers. In the Copa, Petro Mohammed FC would manage to become the first Qurijan team to lift a Juven trophy by defeating U.S Remeno thanks to Aboubakar's heroic strike.

As for international football, AC Pomena would reach the final of a League of Victors once again only to lose against Spenson Suburbia after extra time. Ballesteros' equaliser just would not be enough to carry the team's momentum to an epic reverse sweep and lead to the team's 2nd loss in the final. Meanwhile, U.S Scudelli managed the deepest campaign out of any Juven team in the Cup Winners' Cup by going all the way to the quarter-finals. There, they would meet Atletik and despite being able to equal a 2-goal deficit in Mytanija, they would end up losing in penalties.

This season, the teams have reorganised and reshaped themselves to better acclimatise to the faster pace and higher quality of the league. A reorganisation that is pioneered by the big 7 of AC Pomena, U.S Scudelli, AC Serone, AS Aguajú, Herona Calcio, FC Piluzzi and Cordoba FC. With those teams having more money, talent and better facilities, the league is looking ripe for another close year between them all.

Club: USdC Catena
Nickname: Le bestie incatenate
Manager: Michel Arau(Age 51)
Ground: Ipiti Stadium, Catena Chained City Union(Capacity: 14,000)
Sponsor: Vurudu(Supermarket & Hypermarket Chain)
Rivals: AC Pomena(city), U.S Remeno(city), Porcara FC(city), AC Guillermont(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Catena's known as an urban sprawl of smaller cities surrounding Pomena's southwest side. The team was founded by the locals to find a means of staying united, avoiding to be absorbed by Pomena and to of course have a representation for the city union.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 3rd
Expectations: The drop to Serie B and the difficulty to even get into the top 3 to get back to the big dogs has given USdC Catena a scare. The quality is there, but the Campionato's level has been elevated, as such it might be difficult to maintain a spot in the top division.

Club: Athletic Arragoeta
Nickname: La txakala
Manager: Zigor Alonso(Age 55)
Ground: Arragoeta Municipal Stadium, Pomena (Capacity: 10,500)
Sponsor: Florenzi Industries(Automobile company)
Rivals: Porcara FC(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Arragoetara speakers of Pomena have been some of the luckiest people in Juvencus. Despite living the heartland of Pomenienze-language speaking regions, they have maintained themselves and have flourishes while creating cultural clubs to keep their identity alive and well. Athletic Arragoeta is one of those clubs and the biggest of them all at it. Athletic Arragoeta is known for its highly-acclaimed academies and serving as a feeder team for bigger teams. It has developed talents like Benedikto Urruchi, Patxi Etxeberria and Ekain Zuñiga among others, all of whom have made a name for themselves in la squadra.
Last season's finish: Serie B, 2nd
Expectations: A team of mostly homegrown talent is undergoing its golden ages. However, the Campionato is a whole different beast. They will be lucky if they stay for one or maybe two more seasons in the top flight.

Club: Rivoluzione 1876 FC
Nickname: The Rebels
Manager: Manuel Djordjevic-Shehu(Age 55)
Ground: Stadio 1876, Tipoli (Capacity: 22,000)
Sponsor: TipTour(Tourism giant)
Rivals: S.S.C Tipoli(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: One of the most patriotic teams in the nation. Rivoluzione 1876 FC lives up to its name of having a player and fanbase mostly comprised of passionate Juven. So patriotic is the club that it provides its own educational facilities that specialise in the history and languages of the nation.
Last season's finish: Serie B, Champions!
Expectations: Rivoluzione 1876 FC is the only team fully comprised of Juven players. They have entered a period of prosperity due to the transfer of ownership to TipTour, while the Serie B champions have done a lot of good deals. Expectations of even a mid-table run are in the horizon for the team while they could be battling for more.
If your name is Saint Eleanor, I got inspired by one of your teams, Independence 1975 for the naming of this one.

Club: Toro Calcio
Nickname: I Gladiatori
Manager: Samir Mohammed(Age 59)
Ground: Torre di Toro, Torona(Capacity: 26,000)
Sponsor: Armatori Uomiti(Clothing brand)
Rivals: USC Toro(Main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Created by internal immigrant factory workers in Torona in the late 19th century, Toro Calcio is one of the oldest sports clubs in the nation as a whole and one whose whole image, identity and purpose is centered around its unifying properties in its region as a whole. While never the strongest team, it always attracted the largest number of fans due to it being accepting of both French and Italian-speaking people and also served as an outlet to get rid of any negativity that was afflicting post-Unification War industrial workers, especially in a place as affected as Torona had been.
Last season's finish: 17th
Expectations: Survival is itching and itching further away, relegation bound. Escaping relegation on the last matchday over your arch-rivals is enough to look back on where to stand and what to do.

Club: Odiol Vinceti
Nickname: Gli Oligarchi
Manager: Nico Delacroix(Age 52)
Ground: Vinceti Catedral, Vinceti(Capacity: 53,000)
Sponsor: Odiol(Automobile & Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: U.S Remeno(secondary)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: Originally found by shipyard workers as AC Vinceti, the side found limited, mild success without any major accolade of sorts. It mostly served as a representative of the eastern side of Juvencus and eventually saw all its stocks and holdings purchased by Odiol overnight. They gave the club a massive overhaul such as a new name and identity and gave it a strong budget(of over 200 million juven pesos) that it still has no idea how to use.
Last season's finish: 16th
Expectations: Odiol's money inflow to the team has been greatly reduced. While the club is undergoing multiple managerial changes and is in a state of crisis. Surviving for another year will be a stroke of luck.

Club: S.S.C Tipoli
Nickname: Los Jaguares
Manager: Orso Pozzi(Age 55)
Ground: Il Metropolitano, Tipoli(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: The Wharf(Ship manufacturing)
Rivals: Rivoluzione 1876 FC(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: A team made by dockyard workers in the harbour of Tipoli that slowly came to represent the city. Historically one of the strongest sides of the league and this has gone on in the modern era, despite some hiccups here and there. Everything maritime related is the club's joy and the club management shows a lot of support for every maritime trade treaty there is out there, especially ones that benefit the city of Tipoli.
Last season's finish: 15th
Expectations: The team underwent an injury crisis that hindered its performance. Orso Pozzi's management of the crisis was commendable, despite the team's low finish. Los Jaguares' board is still backing him up, now that most injured players are back in fitness, like Casitano and Polenta.

Club: AC Guillermont
Nickname: Truppe Di Trincea
Manager: Vilhelmina D'Asti(Age 45)
Formation: 4-4-2
Ground: La Frontière, Pomena(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: Organisation du Juvénisme Pacifiste(For-Profit Organisation)
Rivals: AC Trata(main), AC Pomena(City), U.S Remeno(City), Porcara FC(City)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B Championship
Background: AC Guillermont created by high-class citizens that funded the Unification War effort just a few years after the war finished. Anti-monarchist, yet Juvenist in nature, it got a lot of support from high-class citizens who also funded the war efforts, yet received nothing in return after the war ended or by former soldiers that felt neglected by the Holy Emperor.
Last season's finish: 14th
Expectations: Still expecting to be a relegation bound team, however AC Guillermont can hope to maybe stay in the top division for one more time. Vilhelmnia D'Asti's leadership on the bench has given AC Guillermont an air of confidence, at least when it comes to playing well for a team that has struggled to remain in the Campionato.

Club: Internazionale Serone
Nickname: InterSe
Manager: Antoine De Juste(Age 53)
Ground: Stadio Orione, Serone(Capacity: 21,000)
Sponsor: Capdevilla(Communications)
Rivals: AC Serone(city)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Founded in the very busy and international Revoda Sea port of Serone, InterSe's history is long being one of the first clubs to ever be founded in Juvencus. Being in the 2nd largest heart of Revoda Sea trade in Juvencus, after Pomena, Serone has always been host to people of all walks of life from every side of the country. The team was founded 2 months after more localised side AC Serone was founded as a representative of the merchants, the dockyard workers and pretty much everyone else who felt unrepresented in the classes of Serone in the late 19th century. It enjoyed pretty heavy success in the 20th and early 21st centuries, winning a series of local tournaments and cups but in the modern era the team has not produced the same performances. Nevertheless, it is still a larger-than-life representation.
Last season's finish: 13th
Expectations: Staying still in the league was the work of a few factors. Despina Espiritosanto was a fantastic defender, the left back has given a touch of life to the team. Antoine De Juste has made the right moves as well in regards to the building of his squad. However, the race to avoid relegation will be extremely tight this year.

Club: Petro Mohammed FC
Nickname: al-Shuyukh
Manager: Salvio Bandera(Age 48)
Ground: Petro Mohammed Stadium, City of Qurija, Al Qurija(Capacity: 98,000)
Sponsor: Spirozzola(Building firm)
Rivals: Cordoba FC(cultural)
Kit Colors:
Trophies Won: 2 Serie B, 1 Copa Juve
Background: Professional football in Al Qurija is a novelty, considering the national team itself is older than the prevalence of professional football in the country. However, the club was created by several Petro Mohammed(Qurijan national hero) sympathisers in the 1920's and played in local semi-professional leagues for a while.
Last season's finish: 12th, Copa Winners!
Expectations: Petro Mohammed FC has been given the biggest push since last year. A team that can aim at the higher side of the midtable and with a good run could surprise with a placement in the IFCF/FFI spots. Aboubakar's value has skyrocketed, while Crescendo and Hasanbegovic can proudly proclaim their importance for the team.

Club: U.S Remeno
Nickname: Remeniotti Carabinieri
Manager: Samuel El-Hamdouri(Age 54)
Ground: Nuovo Stadio della Popolazione, Remeno(Capacity: 51,000)
Sponsor: Upsol(Foods & drinks)
Rivals: AS Aguajú(main), Odiol Vinceti(secondary), AC Pomena(main), Porcara FC(main), AC Guillermont(main), USdC Catena(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: U.S Remeno is the 2nd oldest club in the nation's history, founded by returning merchants from Quebec as a consequence of even learning about the sport in the first place in the sports-crazed nation. Over time it has become a more left-leaning club and quite anti-monarchist to the point a lot of its fans and important people have been described as treasonous by the royalist fans across town in AC Pomena as well as their fiercest rivals from across the nation, AS Aguajú.
Last season's finish: 11th
Expectations: Samuel El-Hamdouri has taken a mess of a squad. Urano Berpitulli's stepping off came after realising that he wouldn't be able to give the squad the upgrades it needed. El-Hamdouri kept it at mid-table but a squad of this quality not being able to compete for IFCF/FFI spots should alarm people.

Club: S.S.C Pacgliari
Nickname: Os Unidos
Manager: Cristina Guggi(Age 47)
Ground: Estádio da Concepção, Pacgliari(Capacity: 17,000)
Sponsor: Alva(Drinks & beverages)
Rivals: Dortimao FC(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: Originally a team consisting of unionist military veterans from the second great war of unification, the team has been dubbed as Os Unidos for that reason and for being a unifying factor between the large chasm of all the new classes of the infant nation that Juvencus was at the time of the team's creation. Not necessarily a powerful team always, but sometimes it was definitely up there causing massive upsets.
Last season's finish: 10th
Expectations: Os Unidos are on an interesting spot right now. They are THE midtable side of the nation and nothing seems to be changing. The stagnation will remain as is for the time being seeing as only a striker was added to the roster for extra depth.

Club: Al Qurija FC
Nickname: i Musulmani
Manager: Duha Kamal El-Mofty(Age 49)
Ground: Farooq El-Abdellaoui Arena, City of Qurija, Al Qurija(Capacity: 34,000)
Sponsor: SooqRen(Automobile company)
Rivals: Petro Mohammed FC(main), Cordoba FC(cultural)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: A team to represent Qurijans in domestic Juven football was initially created in Córdoba by Qurijan immigrants in the city. For 50 years, it was Córdoba's largest team before being relocated to the motherland. Despite its past history in the city, it has fully integrated with Qurijan football standards now, instead of the ones in its previous home. The team is known as i musulmani due to its predominantly muslim fanbase.
Last season's finish: 9th
Expectations: A solid side mostly of Qurijan and Juven-Qurijan talent has been assembled by Duha Kamal El-Mofty. 2 seasons in a row getting so close to a qualification to the IFCF/FFI competitions means a level up could be in the works for i Musulmani.

Club: AC Trata
Nickname: i Caroneri
Manager: Manuel Zangari(Age 57)
Ground: L'Aranconetta, Trata(Capacity: 16,000)
Sponsor: Serviggieri Motors(Vehicles)
Rivals: AC Guillermont(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: None
Background: AC Trata was founded in the 1920s by a powerful mafiosi family centered in the area. After they were expelled to Montagnaverde, the rights were passed to Serviggieri Motors, a big motorcycle company closely affiliated to them. The support from the fanbase is unreal, but they obviously have a terrible reputation both for being anti-monarchist and for the affiliations to the nation-degenerating mafia.
Last season's finish: 8th
Expectations: The team has slowly but surely developed to be a competitive side and a great representation for the city of Trata. With the right mix of young and old talent, like Modevideo Carpi in his 30s now and Vivien D'Auberge, a young upcoming star, i Caroneri are heading towards the right direction.

Club: FC Piluzzi
Nickname: La Nuovoviola
Manager: Cesare Ajello(Age 54)
Ground: PegAssus Arena, Port-Pegassu(Capacity: 43,000)
Sponsor: Demichelli's Pizzeria(Food & Drinks)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(main), Picgliara Calcio(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve
Background: Port-Pegasu is a very large, affluent coastal city of 4 million people conjoined to much larger Scudelli(and accounts to its statistical area) and it consists of its largest port and business district. While in the day-to-day life there is a big split between dockyard workers and business men who keep everything running in the area, FC Piluzzi was created to mostly close the gap to the bigger threats of other, larger cities, such as Scudelli itself and Pomena of which former's fanbases tried to lure Port-Pegassu people in, with no success. The team was known for its light blue attire and conservative style of playing, however under this new management & ownership, this identity is switching to a purple attire and a mysterious new style of play that nobody has any idea about even after this long while.
Last season's finish: 7th
Expectations: The team's main purpose is to qualify for intercontinental football. From the moment Cesare Ajello hasn't delivered on such promises, his position could be in trouble. With the addition of Julio Pineda to the frontline, the team could be dreaming big. Last season was stagnant, but the faith is still here.

Club: AS Aguajú
Nickname: Los Amazones
Manager: Luciano Gacinovic(Age 61)
Ground: Stadio Electrico, Aguajú(Capacity: 34,000)
Sponsor: Adelmercato(Supermarket Chain) + its own fanbase
Rivals: U.S Remeno(main), AC Melposa(main), AC Pomena(secondary), U.S Scudelli(secondary)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Supercopa Juve, 1 FFI League of Victors
Background: Aguajú's sensitive location on the border with Oscioru and an overlapping Juven/Osci region in general has brought sensitivies of nationalism much greater than in other places around the country. While the basis of language and religion is not really a barrier, the basis of Juven national consciousness has been a thought in the back of the head of many a people in AS Aguajú's fanbase. Created by the 2nd Aguajú Artillery Division in the post-unification years, the team has always had a militant character in regards to how it always takes what it wants because it has known no other way. This might result in a lot of the team or fanbase statements to be over the top and overcompensating in order to prove how Juven they really are. Which undoubtedly, the side has done a great job showcasing. They are the first and so far only team to win an international club trophy.
Last season's finish: 6th
Expectations: In a top-heavy season, Los Amazones just finished out of contention for international club football. Gacinovic has been a solid coach for the team and the supporters are still backing him up, as they are backing Pereyra as well.

Club: Herona Calcio
Nickname: Truppe del Deserto
Manager: Davide Aligheri(Age 61)
Ground: Stadio Artemio Alberti, Herona(Capacity: 31,000)
Sponsor: Planetta Oil(Oil company)
Rivals: FC Herone(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Copa Juve
Background: The Italian-language representative of Herona and not Herone, as the Italian-speaking fans will correct you very aggressively. Herona Calcio is one of the most politically-aligned teams in the nation, known to fund and support all far-right Panjuvenist and Pomenienze-language nationalist parties of their region. While the team's ultras carry major fights, the team has always played a relatively offensive style of football even in the more defensive eras of Juven football. Not necessarily successful ever, they always follow their goals to have their ideals not just heard, but enforced, at least in their own side of the city, il Quartiere, as it's known. The new Stadio Artemio Alberti is the new temple of the team and opposing and neutral fans will DEFINITELY not be allowed unless the ultras of the club deem fit.
Last season's finish: 5th
Expectations: Carlos Juancar has been an amazing defender in place of Stafylidi. The Bergoglio-Bertolini and Luizinho duo have also been deadly and destructive up front for the Truppe del Deserto. The addition of Giancarlo Montessino in the midfield will give this team a better focus on forward carries while also making sure that Herona Calcio will have more flexibility in the compositions it can use. It will be a season where they should expect a top 4 finish once more.

Club: Cordoba FC
Nickname: Tarifa de puntos
Manager: Leonard Pitlinger(Age 51)
Ground: Alcazar Stadium, Córdoba(Capacity: 45,000)
Sponsor: Al-Rayyan Family Enterprise(Oil & Energy)
Rivals: USC Cuori(main), Petro Mohammed FC(cultural), Al Qurija FC(cultural)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 1 Serie B
Background: Cordoba's the cradle of the most multicultural city in the entire nation of Juvencus and was created in the late 1890's to keep the city's inhabitants in check initially, while this worked even better and united them. A successful side in the Crescent Desert's leagues for a while, it was not until recently that it was incorporated into the pyramid of Juven Football and after being acquired by the half-Cordoban/half-Qurijan family of Al-Rayyan, Tarifa de puntos have significant financial backing rivaling those of the top sides and Odiol Vinceti.
Last season's finish: 4th
Expectations: The Tarifa de puntos have become a giant of Juven football that will remain that way for many years to come. Al-Hamdawi, Coste, Zekeria up front are all deadly players. A national team-level tier goalkeeper in Bardhyl Imeri keeps their goals safe and generally the team is still progressing towards the right direction. Leonard Pitlinger has developed the team to a level that could aim high for years to come and especially this season.

Club: U.S Scudelli
Nickname: Les géants
Manager: Miguel Santos(Age 41)
Ground: Il Scudelliano, Scudelli(Capacity: 55,000)
Sponsor: Goamarca(Supermarket & Hypermarket Chain) + Gregg's Restaurant(Food & Drinks:From Quebec&Shingoryeo)
Rivals: AC Pomena(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), FC Piluzzi(main), Picgliara Calcio(main) + most of the nation, they also hate them
Kits:
Trophies Won: 2 Campionato Juvencus, 2 Copa Juve, 2 Supercopa Juve
Background: Team created by bitter descendants of Scudelliano soldiers who fought during the unification war in the side of the Independentists. Team slowly turned into Scudelli and the whole East's representation in the now unified nation, with ideals that turned from bitter resentment to more liberal and free. The team was very successful in the pre-modern era while it has not been too bad in the modern era, despite its ups downs. It has one of the most extensive trophy cabinets in the nation and it shows with its quality on the pitch.
Last season's finish: 3rd, Supercopa Winners!
Expectations: A team that has developed into the best offence in the league in recent memory but is still struggling to win it. The team's ambitions are always high and under Miguel Santos they have picked up a pace and a squad depth enough to maintain high intensity performances both in the league and internationally. Could they be champions? Likely.

Club: AC Serone
Nickname: I Revodesi
Manager: Jules Cannavaro(Age 42)
Ground: Il Porto, Serone(Capacity: 40,000)
Sponsor: Oblisteria(Entertainment)
Rivals: Internazionale Serone(main), AC Pomena(main)
Kits:
Trophies Won: 3 Campionato Juvencus, 1 Supercopa Juve
Background: The very first team to be founded in Serone and one of the first in the nation to be founded in general after Quebecois merchants brought the sport to the nation in the late 19th century. It was initially founded, supposedely, for the representation of everyone in Serone. Truth be told it was much more beneficial to merchants and traders than the other classes present in the city which led to the creation of the rival side, Internazionale Serone just 2 months after. AC Serone is historically a dominant club and one of the few to lift the Campionato more than once which gives their name a certain weight much above the rest of the clubs in the league and more on par with AC Pomena itself, despite being more overshadowed by its success.
Last season's finish: 2nd
Expectations: A squad with quality, multiple masterminds that play for la squadra consistently are in the ranks of AC Serone currently. Faustino Audiol and Sara Ponce most prominently, have been leaders in this team with the assistance of both Tiago Gomes and Gennar Munir. They are defensively sound as well, with the likes of Gonzalo Abdulfekir-Jorginho leading in the backline and adding depth to the squad. Always a title contender, always strong domestically, AC Serone will always be a threat for the title.

Club: AC Pomena
Nickname: The Uhlaner
Manager: Adamo Rosso(Age 45)
Ground: Stadio Gianluca IV, Pomena(Capacity: 85,000)
Sponsor: RAPOM(Broadcasting & Entertainment) + Mother Cerveza(Drinks:From Cardenao)
Rivals: U.S Scudelli(main), AC Serone(main), AS Aguajú(secondary), U.S Remeno(main), Porcara FC(main), AC Guillermont(main), USdC Catena(main) + literally everyone else in the country, everyone hates them
Kits:
Trophies Won: 8 Campionato Juvencus, 3 Copa Juve
Background: The very first team to be created in the nation in 1893 by Pomenienze merchants who came back from a voyage to Quebec and returned with this brand new idea in mind about the beautiful sport which was brought not that long before that. Royalist in nature, it is naturally also the Holy Emperor's favorite team and with it, all his supporters find solace and relation to him through the team. Though outlawed for any powerful politicians(Parlamento Reale representatives + the royal family) to fund any teams, his support for the team has garnered the support of millions of Juven both in Juvencus and abroad. The most successful team of the modern era and in general, it has a record of 6 Campionato victories and 3 Copa Juve victories, which also serves as a record. The Uhlaner are the only team to have won the double and also the first team to have ever qualified to the group and knockout stages of a major IFCF tournament.
Last season's finish: Champions!
Expectations: Adamo Rosso has elevated this team's level to new unparalleled heights. An 8th Campionato has helped elevate this team's status as the hegemon of Juven football, with all other champions having just 6. A strong run in international football saw AC Pomena crash out in the round of 16 of the Challengers' Cup with a runner-up finish in the League of Victors right after. Seeing the team play such beautiful and dominant football internationally has given it a spark of hope to not only retain the title domestically but improve on their performances internationally as well, being Juvencus' greatest representative on IFCF competitions.

SUPERCOPA JUVE

AC Pomena 0–0 Petro Mohammed FC (1–1 AET) (3–2 pen.)
@ Panar Bank Park, Masteser, Drawkland (Attendance: 99,000)

The Juven expatriate community of Drawkland bore witness to a tight game in the Supercopa Juve final. Petro Mohammed FC stood its ground, parked the bus just right and AC Pomena was unable to find the net despite the immense amount of pressure that it put against al-Shuyukh. Aboubakar would find net on the 114th minute, sending shivers down the Uhlaner's spine and nearly solidifying himself as a club legend and a clutch player for a second time, however it was not meant to be as a Ganymede Garcia rocket would be an instant answer to AC Pomena's prayers. The penalty shoot-out was intense, but Wright was pivotal for his team saving 3 penalties in the process and being his team's winning man, finally giving AC Pomena its first Supercopa in history.

CAMPIONATO JFA BANCA TORO 2040-41 FIRST HALF

Half the season has gone and dusted and the league has started to shape up and get clear leaders. Cordoba FC is currently undergoing the season of a lifetime, that team has been unstoppable this year so far, an unstoppable attack coupled with an unbeatable and rock-solid backline, they are currently no joke and far ahead from the 2nd-placed team in AC Pomena. They have been looking solid so far in the season, AC Pomena's been juggling between international club football and the domestic league, as such, seeing it perform at this level gives and interesting perspective at the elevation of the game in the country. AC Serone's been having a few serious gaps and that explains its sudden dip in form, which it will need to improve upon through the season.

Several games have stood out from the beginning of the season, games that have given teams the heads up mentally or in points currently.

Matchday 1:
AC Pomena 0–4 Cordoba FC: Yet another opener involving these two and yet another banger. The Tarifa de puntos was deadly up front and if that was not enough, Adrian Al-Hamdawi scoring 4 past the current champions will serve as a reminder to respect the team from the Sud.

Rivoluzione 1876 FC 0–2 S.S.C Tipoli: For Rivoluzione 1876 FC and S.S.C Tipoli, this was their first match in over 25 years. Over 25 years where they have not cherished their Tipolitano rivalry and the Serie B champions gave S.S.C Tipoli a run for their money. However, the seasoned side escaped from Stadio 1876 unscathed.

Matchday 13:
U.S Remeno 1–3 Herona Calcio: A seemingly regrettable decision to by the U.S Remeno board to let a small Herona Calcio fanbase to come by turns out to have been quite safe in this instance. The game itself was close as Fantasia Bergoglio-Bertolini led the Truppe del Deserto to a resounding away victory, which helps elevate the team's hopes for an IFCF spot.

Matchday 19:
U.S Scudelli 0–0 AC Pomena: The backline of U.S Scudelli held on tight against the Pomenienze's ambitious frontline with an unusual inability to attack themselves. A goalless draw may be lucky for Les géants and even vital in their IFCF race, but for AC Pomena it is equal to defeat, since Cordoba FC dismantle Rivoluzione 1876 FC and earn a 5-point cushion ahead of them at mid-season.

FC Piluzzi3–0 Petro Mohammed FC: La Nuovoviola has been showcasing feats of strength during the season, as Cesare Ajello has been given more freedom to test new formations. The dominant display against Petro Mohammed FC sees a new talent emerge from their ranks, Filippo Cuota. The talented and flexible winger was invaluable for his team, as he provided two assists to his teammates, namely Fransisco Lopetegui and Jules Demirelli, while being able to score one himself.

IFCF Performances:

This season, the IFCF performances of each individual team will be presented seperately instead of a competition by competition basis.

AC Pomena: The skip to the second round of the Champions League qualifiers gave AC Pomena a sigh of relief and an extra time to give star players some much-needed resting time. The team would get past Midtown and Auprussia NF fighting close matches only to be eliminated in the Champions League playoffs by Starksville Coastal in yet another close encounter. With a Challengers Cup group stage spot guaranteed, AC Pomena topped its group a second straight time, getting past the likes of O.K Rod Guafre, Lokomotive Jarnstad and Lok. Cassia.

Cordoba FC: Harkány and Firewatch ASC were no obstacle for a destructive Cordoba FC attack and while it developed a healthy advantadge over AK Stanimir, the visit to Zeta Reka & Hugeltadom would have to be one to forget. That has given space for them to completely focus on the domestic season and as such, their amazing run to the top of the leaderboard is justified.

U.S Scudelli & AC Serone: The qualifiers of the Challengers Cup have not been the friendliest for these teams, immediately getting eliminated from the competition without providing much resistance in games they really should have had in the bag.

Rivoluzione 1876 FC & USdC Catena: Both teams stood unlucky in their games for the Liga B Champions Trophy. While Rivoluzione 1876 FC would get so close and miss the most vital opportunities, USdC Catena would just have too many gaps in its defence, despite a strong offensive showcase.

Athletic Arragoeta: Despite passing through Jamestown FC & Cape Eraspo with relative ease, Athletic Arragoeta stood unlucky to the real test at the playoff round and was yet another Juven victim to a Taxhavn team in the qualifying session this cycle.

Petro Mohammed FC: While al-Shuyukh's run of form in the league had been disastrous, their gameplay on the Cup Winners' Cup has been much different this time. Cruising through Cluitt SC and Katashi-Kanatsu without conceding a single goal has been a dream run. Will they get past the obstacle of Fontvielle Impact in the round of 16 and equal U.S Scudelli's record for deepest run by a Campionato team?
