The attention also moved on to the Professional Development League and the Supreme League Matchday 1. You saw how chaotic the Apex turned out. How about the other 2 leagues?
Supreme League - MD1We call these routine wins? Okay, not quite. Jote United host Armed Forces FC in probably the biggest match of the night, and it ended slightly in favour of the more experienced Armed Forces FC. But manager of Jote United William Karlson isn't worried at all. How can he be worried? The young players played extremely well on Saturday night, wih Curt Zima putting in 2 good saves to stop Azaziah Paget from getting his first hat-trick of the season. Porfirio Norris was able to rattle Rosario Mclaughlin at the back, and forced Erin Vance to do a 2-counter-1 to nullify the winger's threat. Stegaj Johnatson, captain of Armed Forces FC, was full of praise for their opponents putting up a really disciplined battle against his team.

PDL1 MD1One-sided affairs wasn't expected at all. 6 out of 6 clean sheets? Especially how Dagur Lawrence scored 2 and provided 1 assist in Sarim Potato U19s' 3-0 victory in the capital city. Fiskadaha FC U19s' keeper Natalie Dircks was absolutely not there. A mistake that gifted Lawrence his second goal of the night, as well as another than almost gave Lawrence his hat trick - these were mistakes that were typically unusual of the young keeper. Maybe it was the Matchday 1 blues.

Week 4
Apex Matchday 2The very first Mancodas derby of the season ended in a 1-1 draw between Mito and Stevenson. It was a battle of the midfield power, as Natalie Carlson vs Nobutoshi Kazama became the biggest battle of the night. The draw seems to be well deserved, and given the real lack of talking points the entire weekend, the attention turned to the Supreme League.
Saturday
Holhot United 1–2 Sarim Potato FC
Mancodas Athletic FC 1–1 Mancodas City
Trimidau Rukiya 2–1 Kavalti River FC

Bikarish 1–1 Cochin FC
FC United of Mancodas 1–1 Dalaris City
Supreme League Matchday 2Was there actually more talking points here? You can say there is slightly more talk here than the Premier League. Sunday saw the only city derby possible in the Supreme League, which was between both Didari clubs. You can imagine that both teams have immense pressure on them to pull off the win. Not just the bragging rights. It is about staying in the 2nd highest Poafmersian league. Graciia Warisian led the defence for the home side. For the whole 90 minutes, it was pretty solid. Sure, it ended in a 1-0 win for Didari City. But the former Super League champions got a bit lucky there. A controversial freekick was given to them, and Hayley Montague was able to score the direct freekick to grab a 1-0 victory. Surprise? The biggest surprise should be Armed Forces FC, with Keld Papp scoring 3 and providing an assist to win big. That performance was definitely unlike what the Warriors have done in the past. Goals used to be a struggle for them, and they barely cross the line when they win. But now - a 4-0 win will pile the pressure on other teams who are looking towards promotion as their final target.

PDL1 MD2No, the teams did not suddenly feel like defence is king. However, you can consider it extremely strange for draws to start popping out of nowhere. Trimidau Rukiya JDS vs Dury Juniors was absolutely fair play, for what is worth. The game was beautiful - free flowing football, signs of a strong passing game, and the battles in the midfield - those were all there. Although the players weren't as confident as the senior players are when executing such a gameplan, they showed the potential to do it - and the 7 minute long highlights perfectly show that.

PDL1 MD3Talk about Magreta Rym, please. Just talk about the 19 years old player from Mancodas City. I know, the opponents are Jote United Development Team. And they aren't the strongest academy by a long shot. But did you see how Rym performed? Absolutely stunning. I know all of you wanted to talk about Fiedelm Lindsay's goal-of-the-match at home against Mancodas Athletic U19s. But please, please, let me just dedicate this part to Rym. If we all thought Rym was just a midfield tempo conducter, and posession keeper, then we must have missed out on the fact that he is also creative. Ability to create opportunities for goal? Yes, you found the correct player. You can't forget a player who was involved in all 5 goals in the match. 1 goal, 2 assists, and his role in distracting the opponents for the last 2 shouldn't be ignored. We can also talk about how he was responsible for a total of 27 successful tackles in the game? 27? Close to 1 every 3 minutes? Go figure.

Apex MD4While Wang Wei, Alex Hoboson, Kresp-Japil Cuf, and the entire backline could be credit for stopping Shakira Handris and co. from scoring a single goal, you have to give similar credit to the front line. To Isabella Coste, the Savigliane forward, as well as the former Poafmersian NTer Hansel Tang. Tang and Coste are in slightly different sides of the curve. One is approaching the peak. The other is going off the peak. Yet you cannot doubt either of their capabilities as they produced 4 goals past Christine Faits. Nukam Poir calls it disgraceful. We beg to differ. Dalaris City tried very hard, but Dury FC was god tier that night. The home side was absolutely dominant throughout the 90 minutes, and Sadi That couldn't be more pleased with the Blue Sailors' performance against a really strong side. The performance, together with a couple of upsets elsewhere, puts the defending champion on top of the leaderboard.

Supreme League MD4Domination in progress for Pacifica? Really, you can't talk anything about a team who wen +10 GD in MD4 with a 2-0 win over Armed Forces FC, and then 3-0 past Derby United. Big games against 2 fellow promotion contenders! It is a bit too early to say whether Pacifica is going to dominate, but judging by the form Koios Voltolini and Adalia Patton is in right now, this run is probably going to last quite for quite some time. Until a team stops the two players. Or a team can put more past captain Patricie Pereira and the backline.

PDL1 MD4Dalaris City Juniors falls to the bottom with just 2 points in 3 games - with a loss against Didari City Juniors and a draw against Dury Juniors in the last 2 games. Those were 2 very different draws. One was a sign of strength in the defence, stopping Dury Juniors from converting midfield domination into goals. The other, was a sign of weakness, as the loss was never expected at all. Didari City Juniors belongs to the "second class" in the top tier of academy football. And a loss there just doesn't look good on the team as a whole. Yes, the academy league is prone to lots of fluctuations. But that means that every game is especially important. When you need t secure the win, you should always do so.
