The most powerful club in the Empire, Rey Utarwalin, had won the title again. That's not a sensation at all. The results of the Lichtar, Heynerik and Kanmer, the "Big Five" members (along with Rey and Dementer), are more sensational, as the first two clubs failed to qualify for the international competitions at all, while Kanmer managed to qualify only after Enlighted Emperor's Cup victory. Meanwhile, Rozen and Spartak Nirsen, the teams which are usually regarded as mid-table, managed to make their fans happy and recieve the international cups qualifications (i hope so).
On the other side, Rukh and Dinamo-Auto Trisen performed poorly that season, only narrowly escaping relegation.
Other teams, more or less, performed at the expected levels.

This is a very heart-throbbing moment, so, readers, calm down, get ready for the matches and hope that victory will be on our side, for the glory of an Empire.

INTERVIEW TIME

It's obvious, that our athletes have more pressures than usual viewers, so we asked Alexey Renlok about his conditions before the match.

WK: Hello Alexey, it's Walerian Kadrinder from the Imperial State TV, and i'm here you to ask some questions. I see, that you have some practice right now, but I will try not to distract you too much. So, Alexey, how do you feel before your first international match?
AR: Well, it's both thrilling and worrying at the same time for me. I finnaly advanced to the international level, but still don't know, how good are the players here.
WK: How do you are your chances to pass the qualification?
AR: As I earlier said, i don't know the exact levels of my current and potential opponents, and moreover, for me, making predictions is just another way to get more stress and pressure. So, I'm trying just not to focus on it, but rather practice to get ready for my match.
WK. Thanks for your answers, Alexey. By the way, that's a nice skull on your shirt.
AR: *laughs* Thanks. I will try to do my best not to disgrace my Empire.
WK: Good luck to you. Goodbye.
AR: Bye.

IMPERIAL CLUBS MAKE THEIR DEBUT IN THE INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIONS

Photo: Spartak Nirsen's unlucky campaign.

A few days ago, seven our clubs took participation in the 16th season of the IFCF international competitions. Their debut campaign was marked by both sucesses and failures.

Champions of the Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Champions League:
1Q: vs. FC Angalien-Hullenberg (KRN)  0-1 
- Home: 0-0
- Away: 0-1
IFCF Challengers Cup:
2Q: vs. New Bastion (EOT)  3-2 
- Home: 3-0 (Aimar 34', Rik 52', Kotarsen 79')
- Away: 0-2
3Q: vs. Eastal Lunar (VIL) 1-3 
- Home: 1-1 (Kotarsen 68')
- Away: 0-2
IFCF Associations Trophy:
GROUP C:
Rey Utarwalin (KAN)
Sporting Arrachai (ACS)
Galaxy SC (XAN)
Blades ex Magnaeus (EOT)

As expected, our strongest club, Rey Utarwalin made a very decent campaign for their debut. Nevertheless, they were able to stay in the ICL only for two matches, being eliminated in the first round and haven't scored any goals. But at least, they conceded just one.
Rey was more successful in the ICC, where they managed to pass second qualifying round by achieveing an excellent 3-0 victory in their home stadium, Utarwalin Hall. Their first ever international goal was scored by the Esteban Aimar, a naturalized player.
But at the next round, Rey was drawn against a serious team, with the sixth ranked coefficient in that round. However, Celestials managed to get a draw at home, before losing in the second leg.
But Rey's international journey still isn't over, as they managed to enther the group stage of the IFCF Associations Trophy! They already will have six matches to play, and we will hope that our champions would be lucky to play even more matches in this season.

2nd place in Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Challengers Cup:
1Q: vs. Eugene Troger (TRL)  4-3 
- Home: 1-2 (Surkin 8')
- Away: 3-1 (Padkalin 37', 39', 83')
2Q: vs. Austin City (XAN) 2-5 
- Home: 0-0 
- Away: 2-5 (Padkalin 21', Shinkar 74')

The first ever Empire of Kanmer's goal in the international club competitions was scored by Rozen. In the 8th minute of the first leg of the ICC first qualifying round, Raman Surkin made history and gave a hope to the supporters of The Roses. However, Rozen's opponents managed to score two goals soon and Rozen's debut match was marred. But Roses did not planned to surrender and in the second leg, thanks to the magnificent hat-trick by Alexander Padkalin, they turned the situation in their favor, advancing into the next round. Then they failed to advance to the third qualifying round, securing a goalless draw at home and losing away.

3rd place in the Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Challengers Cup:
1Q: vs. Libertas Bergheim (SVJ)  0-4 
- Home: 0-1 
- Away: 0-3

Very unlucky performance by Čarnin-Blakitayn, as they even failed to score any goals. This result almost costed Uladzimir Kapalin his job as a coach. But wonderfully he was spared and was given second chance. Now, Dementer needs to perform well in the domestic tournaments. Kapalin needs to secure a spot in the top-3, or win the Emperor's Cup to be safe.

4th place in the Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Challengers Cup:
1Q: vs. Pescam Campuhan (PCU)  0-2 
- Home: 0-1 
- Away: 0-1

Spartak also failed to score any goals at the international level, but today the club from Nirsen does not perform as well as 20 years ago (when they regularly were in top-3), and a simple participation in the international tournaments is already a pleasure for them.

In the next issue of Ritsport, we will cover matches of the Liga B Champions Trophy, where three our clubs (Partizan Awenir, Gardwalin and Gunbin Goblin) participated. And moreover, we still have to wait for the Cup Winners Cup, in which DFK Kanmer will participate.

II FOOTBALL SEASON

Our newswire promised you to show the second part of our footbal clubs international season (including DFK Kanmer matches), but due to the fact that Cup Winners Cup not started yet, for now we can't do that. The redaction apologises for the broken promises.

But it is not a case for sadness and sorrow, as the Empire still has a plenty of sporting events. And the most important of them is the beginning of a Imperial Football Season II. For now, the first half of the Imperial Football Leagues is finished.
Despite Rey Utarwalin securing a top spot as usual and already having an 11-point solid gap, there is still a plenty of great moments to see.
A fierce battle is occuring for the Challengers Cup spots. DFK Kanmer returned to their former level and already secured second place at least for now, but the lower-placed teams are not so safe. Only eight points divide 4th and 13th-placed teams, and it's everyone's game. As we can see, Reylinden, who earlier was close to a midtable, managed to secure the last international place due to victories over Dinamo-Auto, Partizan and Gunbin. However, they also can be topped easily as the season goes,so it's still hard to predict, who will get the last two Challengers Cup spots.
Spartak Nirsen is also still in the game. Probably, they still have a spirit from their successful previous season, as they managed to hold in the international competitions zone for a few weeks, and after gameweek 4, they even were on a top.
The prize for a biggest dissapointment goes to Heynerik Alitar. They totally deserved it for their painfull fall. They hold the top spot for 5 weeks - longer that all other teams combined (except for the Rey, of course), but then started to crumble. After a series of horrible results, they fell to the 13th place, and now have only theoretical chances to win the league and even qualify to the international football. This downfall can be attributed to different factors, such as injuries of a main playes, like legendary veteran Mihal Reyhandir and striker Alexander Handiwar. The other dissapointment is Dementer. Earler we told you that Uladzimir Kapalin, Dementeynir's head coach, needed to finish in the top-3 or win a Cup to stay safe. As Dementer from the beginning of a season was in the middle of a table, probably the team would focus on a Cup now.
Dinamo-Auto Trisen had losed all of their 10 opening matches, which leaded to the sacking of their head coach, Dementiy Dwinor. But their new coach, Alexander Shalin, managed to make a little miracle. In his first game (MD 11) he managed to get a draw against Rozen, silver medalist of a past season. The supporters of Dinamo would have to wait a little longer for their club's first victory of the season (on week 16 against Gunbin), but for now, Trisen even managed to leave the last position. There is still 3 points from the safe spot. Will Shalin save his club?
The returned clubs are performing good for now, especially Partizan Awenir, who now sits right in the middle of a table, in a 10th place.

THE SUCCESS OF REY AND FAILURE OF OTHERS

Finally, a second part about Imperial clubs performace in the IFCF competitions.

Champions of the Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Associations Trophy:
GROUP C:
Galaxy SC (XAN) — 12 pts
Rey Utarwalin (KAN) — 11 pts
Blades ex Magnaeus (EOT) — 6 pts
Sporting Arrachai (ACS) — 2 pts

MD1: home vs. Sporting Arrachai (ACS) 0-0
MD2: away vs. Blades ex Magnaeus (EOT) 1-0 (Kotarsen 40')
MD3: away vs. Galaxy SC (XAN) 1-2 (Wirsen 19')
MD4: home vs. Galaxy SC (XAN) 1-1 (Dwain 41')
MD5: home vs. Blades ex Magnaeus (EOT) 3-1 (Aimar 2', 45+1, Rik 86')
MD6: away vs. Sporting Arrachai (ACS) 3-2 (Aimar 38', Kotarsen 60', Insen 84')

R32: vs. Arlington City (ZWZ) 0-4
- Home: 0-2 
- Away: 0-2

Our hopes came true. Rey Utarwalin actually played even more matches in this international season, as they managed to secure the second place in their Associations Trophy group. In was a bit challenging in the beginning, as in the first four matches they earned only 5 points out of 12, but then they achieved two consecutive victories and with 11 points, they finished second, only a point behind the leader and 5 points ahead of the third-placed team. A magnificent performance from the Celestials in their debut season. Many thanks to the Esteban Aimar and Artsem Kotarsen, as the first player scored 4 goals in this campaign, and the second one scored 3.
The Royal Club then played the round of 32, but lost without a chance. Still, a very strong performance.

Winners of the Enlightened Emperor's Cup
IFCF Cup Winners' Cup:
PR: vs. Cyrene Bay (OAM)  2-4 
- Home: 2-2 (Amarikander 66', Dwarattin 89') 
- Away: 0-2

An exactly opposite situation occured with the DFK Kanmer. In their debut international match, they found themselves being down 0-2 already after the first half. But Imperials were not going to simply surrender. In the second half they completely outplayed their opponents, showing the triumph of the spirit, as Dementiy-Dmitriy Amarikander and Zmitser Dwarratin both scored and equalized. Sadly, this triumph failed to last for a long time, as DFK kanmer lost their second match and were eliminated.
On the press-conference, DFK Kanmer's head coach, Potap Sutar, said that from the beginning of the season they focused primarily on the league, not on the Cup Winners' Cup. As it could be seen in the next issues of Ritsport, they actually improved their league performace in this season.

Winners of the Imperial First League
IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy:
3Q: vs. Dratsya Ochuromorsk (PYA)  1-2 
- Home: 0-1 
- Away: 1-1 (Girwan 65')

2nd place in Imperial First League
IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy:
3Q: vs. PFC Wottalersdorf (KRN)  0-2 
- Home: 0-1
- Away: 0-1 

3rd place in Imperial First League
IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy:
2Q: vs. Campo de Libelula SC. (ACS)  3-2 
- Home: 3-2 (Mirpal 2', 23', Habinder 10') 
- Away: 0-0 
3Q: vs. Eternalfell Dragons (DKI)  1-4
- Home: 0-2 
- Away: 1-2 (Mirpal 69')

There is nothing to tell about Liga B Champions Trophy performance, as all three clubs equally failed, being eliminated in the third qualifying round. The only difference is that Gunbin Goblin had to earn their place in this stage, as they started in from the second qualifying round.

In the end, let's have a look at the rankings:

COUNTRY AND CLUB RANKINGS:

93. Kanmer - 2.875
----------------------------------------------------------
258. Rey Utarwalin - 8.000
645. Rozen - 1.000
687. Dementer - 0.575
688. Spartak Nirsen - 0.575

II FOOTBALL SEASON RESULTS

Not many unusual things at the end of the season. As expected, Rey Utarwalin have not crumbled and confidently secured it's second consecutive title, having almost 100 points. The second place is taken by Rozen again, who had a very decent second half. Some people starting to say that the classic "Big Five" is no more, as Heynerik and Lichtar are failing again and their place is slowly taken by clubs like Rozen. But it's too early to be true, as only two seasons have been passed.
DFK Kanmer regained the international spot after last season's failure, finishing 3rd.
Dementer have improved its position, but still failed to qualify to the international competitions. This performance, combined with defeat in the Emperor's Cup Round of 64 from the third tier club Haspadar ad failure in the IFCF Challengers Cup, lead to the sacking of the head coach Uladzimir Kapalin.
Alexander Shalin, after all, managed to save Dinamo-Auto Trisen from the relegation. While Yury Kander had a very decent kampaign with Partizan Awenir. Despite slightly worse performance in the second half of the tournament, he was still named as the 5th best coach of the II season.

Here is the performance an position of each club throughout whole season.



Starting from now, it is possible to see the entire performance record of all clubs who have ever participated in the Imperial Supreme League.

Very strong performance from the Madasen, who managed to secure a straight promotion to the Supreme League. The owner of the club, Euheni Walin, says that their target in the future is to qualify to the IFCF international competitions. On the other hand, there is poor performance from the clubs who showed decend results in the past. The returned Smargand only managed to secure place in the middle of a table and KNU Awenir, who was really close to promotion a season ago, now was really close to relegation.
Sensational Benbin-Kadwan, who reached quarterfinals of the last Emperor's Cup, also performed decently and finished 14th, a very good result for them.

SUPREME LEAGUE PLAYOFF:

SORDAS 1-2 KFK AVANTI AWANTAR
First match: Sordas 0-2 KFK Avanti Awantar
Second match: KFK Avanti Awantar 0-1 Sordas

IMPERIAL RESERVES CHAMPIONSHIP:

There is a bit different format. The Imperial Reserves League consists of 20 reserve teams of the clubs which play in the Supreme League in current season. So, if the main team gets relegated from the Supreme League, the reserve team would be also relegated from the Reserves Championship, regardless of their place.
As it could be seen, the results with a hockey-like scores are often occuring here, and best teams usually score more then 100 goals during the tournament. This is cause of the huge gap between the teams. The best ones, like Rey Utarwalin, have very decent academies, and the worst one could be almost amateur.

FOOTBALL SEASON III PREVIEW
PART 1: TRANSFERS AND IMPERIAL SUPREME LEAGUE

Before season, a transfer window was held. And for the first time in NS, Kanmerin players were allowed to move abroad, to a foreign clubs. As it could be seen, 13 players in total signed contracts with clubs from the other countries. Among them, there are some experienced players and memebrs of the Kanmer Imperial Football team. In could be seen, that many players were bought by Krytenian teams. Euheni Wirdaner, the best scorer of the season I and one of the most important players of DFK Kanmer, moved to Krytenian side Emberton Hibernians. Ihar Rindewan, who scored an only goal of the last Emperor's Cup final, now is a player of other Krytenian team, Secklow. Other players also moved around the world, and now are playing in countries like Tikariot, Pemecutan, Polar Islandstates and others. There was also a manager transfer in that window. Uladzimir Kapalin, who had not the best season with Dementer, now will try to achieve success in Patriotlandia, leading the club Stade Conflans.
In contrast to that, only one foreign player moved to the Kanmer.

This is a brief preview to the next season of the Imperial Supreme League. All participating teams, their colors, head coaches and captains, stadiums and positions in the last league season are described here.

THE KANPAL UPCOMING SEASON PREDICTIONS

Before the start of the season, the predictions of how the Supreme League will go, were made with the help of the supercomputer KANPAL (which is the second strongest supercomputer in the Kanmer's universe). 10000 season simulations were made and in the table below average position and percentage probabilities of the three possible outcomes for each club are shown. As it could be seen, now even supercomputer thinks that nobody would make a real challenge for Rey Utarwalin and Celestials would probably secure the third consecutive league title.

FOOTBALL SEASON III PREVIEW
PART 2: KANMER FOOTBALL LEAGUE SYSTEM

The football league system of Kanmer is oficially consisted of 11 levels (tiers), the highest being the Supreme League, containing 20 clubs.

Then, there are three divisions also of 20 clubs each: First, Second and Third League (levels 2-4). The clubs of levels 1-4 are considered professional.

Then, the semi-professional Conference exists, although, some relegated professional clubs also play here. It consists of 24-team Imperial Conference (level 5), and then the regional split begins. 20 principalities of the Kanmer Empire are divided equally to the Eastern and Western Conferences (level 6). It is the last tier of semi-professional football.

Next down from the Conference are principalities leagues (level 7-9), where some strong clubs are semi-professional, but most of the clubs are amateur.

20 principalities of Kanmer are divided into 396 parishes, and each one have it's own league, while some of them have even two divisions (level 10-11).

There is no official definition of level 12 and below. At that levels, local tournaments are played (like town or village championship), and there is a possibility to advance to the parish level.

NOTE: There is no strict structures starting from the principalities level and below. Every principality has first and second divisions, but not everyone has the third division. Same with parishes, as every parish has its own division, but not every parish has second division. Thus, football clubs could move up and down to the 2 levels in one season (between levels 8 and 10, and between levels 10 and 12, although not every parish division has relegation). The number of clubs at that levels are also not regulated, so every principality and parish division has its own number of clubs, On the principality level, usually it is from 8 to 20 clubs, and on parish level, it differs from 4 to 16 clubs.

NATIONAL IMPERIAL HOCKEY LEAGUE. SEASON CCXLVI (246)
REGULAR STAGE

It is worth to mention that the National Imperial Hockey League, unlike its football counterpart, uses classical system to count seasons. They are counted from the estabilishment of the Kanmer Empire in August 1778. Hockey season 1778-79 is counted as a season I, as it is the first season after the proclamation of Empire. Although, there are rumours that the Kanmer Imperial Football Federation (KIFF) is thinking to also return the classical system of the numeration of the seasons.

INTERNATIONAL CLUB COMPETITIONS REVIEW
PART 1: STATISTICS

Results can be very different sometimes.

Before starting, let the Ritsport redaction explain, what those scary abbreviations like GS and 1Q mean:

Maybe not all stages are presented here, but it is still probably enough to understand meaning of all those abbreviations. Anyways, it's time to move to the topic of the article.
Yes, it is finally time to review performance of the Imperial clubs in the international competitions. And in the beginning, here are all-time tables of the performance of all clubs who participated in the IFCF and FFI events at least once. For now, they are not too big, but as the time goes those, probably would become more impressive.

IFCF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

IFCF CHALLENGERS CUP

IFCF ASSOCIATIONS TROPHY

IFCF CUP WINNERS CUP

IFCF LIGA B CHAMPIONS TROPHY

FFI LEAGUE OF VICTORS

FFI CONFEDERATIONS TROPHY

For now, it is just a very brief review of the last international season, but the next issue of Ritsport would cover it in more details. And at the end, there are updated national and club coefficents. Fortunately, the score of last season was better then previous, and all of the clubs, together with the association, moved up in the rankings.

IFCF 17 AND FFI 16. A REVIEW.

Yes, breaking the fourth wall again and again.

Football clubs of the Empire entered their 2nd season of IFCF competitions, and this is how they performed:

Champions of the Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Champions League:
1Q: vs. Jeunesse Tan-Tan (TMZ)  2-3 
- Away: 2-3 (Rainek 38', 71')
- Home: 0-0

- Away: 3-1 (Aimar 21', 28', Rik 43')
- Home: 2-0 (Rainek 18, Kotarsen 34')
4Q: vs. Cazadores Cathair  (AUD) 0-6 
- Home: 0-2 
- Away: 0-4 
IFCF Associations Trophy:
GROUP C:
Mar Sara FC  (VAL) — 15 pts
Caledon Simpson (CRY) — 12 pts 
Rey Utarwalin (KAN) — 6 pts
Ajaxin City FC  (ACS) — 3 pts

Unlike the first season, Imperial clubs entered international competitions being more prepared and experienced, as some of the participants already played in the IFCF competitions and knew what to expect. Primarily, it's about Rey Utarwalin, champions of Kanmer. Being unprepared, they made an impressive run for their debut season in the 16th season of the IFCF, showing their capability to play well in the international level. Before start of the season, Alexander Anikin, Rey's head coach, set three tasks to complete:

• Reach the second qualifying stage of the IFCF Champions League
• Advance in the IFCF Challengers Cup as far as possible
• Reach the round of 32 of the IFCF Associations Trophy.

As it could be seen, those tasks are nowhere impossible, and the third task was already completed in the previous season. The plan was to slightly improve the results compared to the past campaign. It seemed absolutely possible as the team now is more prepared and already "tasted" the IFCF competitions.

Reach the second qualifying stage of the IFCF Champions League: On paper, it looked not too hard, as, thanks to the points from the decent previous campaign, Rey Utarwalin now was a seeded team, meaning that they would not meet strong clubs from the start. The squad of the Celestials was strenghtened, as one of the best Kanmerin players, Euheni Rainek, recovered from the ACL injury. Everything was set for Rey Utarwalin, to help them finally secure a win in the Champions League and advance to the next stage. But the reality was harsh. Recovered Rainek scored two goals for the Utarwalin, but it was not enough even for a draw. All hopes were for the match at Utarwalin Hall, but the team failed to do anything and ended their compaign in the NS main club tournament.
2 seasons in the Champions League, only 4 matches and 0 victories. An absolute shame. After the match, dissapointed fans blocked the exits from the stadium, chanting "Anikin, go away! Anikin, go away!". Alexander Anikin himself was forced to leave the stadium from the back door, avoiding clash with angry fans. Everything was in the hands of Royal Club, and they successfully failed that task.

Advance in the IFCF Challengers Cup as far as possible: The fans were dissapointed, but one of them, probably, was dissapointed more than others. His name was Damian. The Enlightened Emperor Damian I Rinmein. An avid fan of football since the age of 6, from the ancient 1749-50 football season. And, moreover, the most painful thing is that Rey Utarwalin was actually his native club. Born in Reisen, the suburb of Utarwalin, Emperor Rinmein spent his child and teenager years in that city. And Rey, the local team, always had a special place in his heart. He actually visited the second leg of the Champions League qualification in Utarwalin, only to waste his day for nothing. On the morning after the game, he sent a warning letter to the Rey Utarwalin, in which he recommended the team to play better in the Challengers Cup, or the club could face some consequences. Probably, that letter made the players and coaching staff more motivated, as Celestials easily advanced past second qualifying round of Challengers Cup.
In the third qualifying round, their opponent was Pescam Campuhan from Pemecutan, a team already familiar to the Kanmerin football fans, as the season before club from Pemecutan faced Spartak Nirsen also in Challengers Cup, ending their campaing already at the start. But now, Rey Utarwalin "got their revenge" for Spartak, comfortably beating their opponent twice, progressing into the fourth round. Unfortunately, than they stopped being seeded, and the draw was unmerciful for Rey, getting them Audioslavian Cazadores Cathair as the next opponent. No chances against the finalist of the last edition of the Challengers Cup. Although the club still barely completed the second task.

Reach the round of 32 of the IFCF Associations Trophy: In the group stage draw, the coeffecents were enough to make Rey Utarwalin one of the best ranked teams of a pot 2. Theoretically, that would mean great chances to secure top 2 of the group. But the club again failed miserably. They failed to show some coherent performance and got only 6 points, finishing third. Some of the "successes" on a group stage includes a 5-1 defeat from Caledon Simpson and 1-2 loss from an Ajaxin City FC, the team from the pot 4.

Not very good IFCF campaign from the Royals. They got only 4 coefficent points for it, twice less then they got in the prevous season. Alexander Anikin was given an ultimatum, similar to one that was given to Kapalin a season ago. As a manager of the Emperor's most favourite club most powerful Imperial club Anikin needed to win the title again to avoid sacking. But, fortunately, there still was one international competition left...

FFI League of Victors:
R32: vs. Club Catolica (OSC)  3-4 
- Home: 0-0 
- Away: 3-4 (Rainek 24', Aimar 41', Wirsen 66')

FFI Confederations' Trophy:
R32: vs. Fiskadaha FC (PFA)  4-2 
- Away: 3-1 (Rainek 36', 54', 62')
- Home: 1-1 (Kotarsen 51')
R16: vs. Orchideeën (TAX)  6-0 
- Home: 4-0 (Rainek 12', Aimar 21', 49', Rik 90+1')
- Away: 2-0 (Rik 26', Insen 39')
QF: vs. Jesper Torbensen (TRL)  2-1 
- Away: 0-1
- Home: 2-0 (Rainek 71', Kotarsen 88')
SF: vs. Mancodas Athletic FC (PFA)  2-3 
- Home: 1-2 (Aimar 42')
- Away: 1-1 (Gaikman 75'))

After Rey Utarwalin was eliminated from the FFI League of Victors in the first round, dark clouds again began to gather over the future of Alexander Anikin. Many people thought that the Enlightened Emperor is going to write the second warning letter to his favourite football club, and Anikin, possibly, might be fired during the season already.
But, suddenly, the salvation had come, in the face of Confederations Trophy. But at the very beginning, things again were not in the favor of Rey, as in the Round of 32 they get Poafmersian Fiskadaha FC as their opponent. Even after other Kanmerin side, Reimin Reihelen, knocked them out from the Challengers Cup, the Poafmersian side was more than a serious opponent for The Celestials, as they had the highest ranking among all participants of the Round of 32. But that have not stopped Rey at all, and The Royal Club, with the help of the Euheni Rainek's hat-trick, advanced at the round of 16. On that stage, they destroyed Orchideeën from Taxhavn, scoring 6 goals in two matches, reaching quarterfinals. On that stage, Jesper Torbensen from Trolleborg was their opponent. Even a defeat in the first match have not succumbed Rey to despair, and at home, Celestials made a comeback, thanks to Euheni Rainek and Artsem Kotarsen. And now, Rey Utarwalin was only one step from it's first international final. But at the end, Royal Club failed to make that one last step for a glory, being defeated by another Poafmersian side, Mancodas Athletic FC, after an intense fight.
Still, it was more than impressive result for a team that made its debut in that tournament. Thanks to it, Alexander Anikin was spared and remained the manager of Rey Utarwalin. All those warning letters and ultimatums were forgotten and Anikin have turned from zero to hero.

IFCF Rising Stars Cup:
Winners of the Imperial Reserves Championship
1R:: vs. The Federation (MSD)  3-1 
- Home: 1-0 (Mirainman 37')
- Away: 2-1 (Mirainman 24', Sen 46')
2R: vs. Ararat (MYT) 2-3 
- Home: 0-3 
- Away: 2-0 (Sen 7', Ahaddar 81')

The reserve team of Rey Utarwalin made its debut in the IFCF сompetitions. Some would say that Rey II performed even better then the main team. They successfully escaped the fate of being one of the first two teams eliminated, advancing through the first round. But stronger opponent awaited them in the next round. Rey II lost the first match at home without a chance, but even after that they still were willing to fight and won the second one, fighting untill the last minutes. That's true example of a strong spirit. Maybe, the main team of Rey should learn something from it's young counterparts.

2nd place in the Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Challengers Cup:
1Q: vs. Avanaroch White Wings FC (TKT)  6-4 
- Home: 2-1 (Handorin 52', 67')
- Away: 4-3 (Handorin 13', Padkalin 17', Shinkar 56', 79')
2Q: vs. Kven FK (ZRH) 3-2 
- Home: 1-2 (Sangin 33')
- Away: 2-0 (Surkin 17', Shinkar 52')
3Q: vs. Pesfield Trees  (SYL) 1-5 
- Home: 1-3 (Handorin 81')
- Away: 0-2 

Contrary to Rey Utarwalin, Rozen slightly improved its results on the international level, reaching third qualifying round of Challengers Cup. Thanks to Flarian Handorin, Alexander Padkalin and Raman Shinkar, Roses managed to defeat Avanaroch White Wings FC from Tikariot twice and then recover from the defeat in the first match to win the duel against Kven FK from Zeta Reka and Hugeltadom. But, sadly, they failed to make something against Pesfield Trees from Sylestone. Still, being now the second strongest club in Kanmer, Rozen managed to show second best result on the international level among all Kanmerin clubs.

FFI League of Victors:
QR: vs. Luther City FC (APH)  1-1 a 
- Away: 1-1 (Rinsinder 54') 
- Away: 0-0
R32: vs. DVB Dompo (TLW)  4-4 a 
- Away: 2-4 (Handorin 11', Padkalin 84')
- Home: 2-0 (Padkalin 23', Kasein 69')
R16: vs. Spenson Suburbia (ZWZ)  0-4 
- Away: 0-3
- Home: 0-1

The Roses also achieved a decent run in the FFI League of Victors. In the preliminary round they, like Rey II, also escaped the fate of being the first eleminated team. Then, they defeated DVB Dompo from Toluiwa and, thanks to that, showed even a better performance then Rey Utarwalin. However, in the Round of 16 Roses expectedly failed to advance past Spenson Suburbia, a team that had won the past League of Victors and now defended its title.

3nd place in Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Challengers Cup:
1Q: vs. Soleburg Frontiers FC (CPC)  2-2 p 
- Home: 1-0 (Amarikander 21')
- Away: 1-2, pen. 7-8 (Korin 84') 

DFK Kanmer finally achieved it's first victory at the international level, but that victory worthed almost nothing, as the team failed to advance further. On the other side, DFK Kanmer fought untill the very end, losing only after a long series of penalty kicks. Only Heorhi Garwayus, who was the eighth shooter, failed to score and destroyed all efforts of the seven players who scored penalties before. Garwayus is useless, as always. Maybe it is his last season in DFK Kanmer.

4th place in the Imperial Supreme League
IFCF Challengers Cup:
1Q: vs. Fiskadaha FC (PFA) 4-2 
- Home: 2-1 (Ralin 56', Sedme 71')
- Away: 2-1 (Miran 42', Ralin 79')
2Q: vs. La Nueva Avenida  (FFD) 2-5 
- Home: 1-2 (Miran 3')
- Away: 1-3 (Ralin 39') 

Reimin Reihelen also had a strong opponent in the first qualifying round, Fiskadaha FC from Poafmersia. But The Officials were not afraid and and managed to secure two wins. In the second round, even stornger opponent awaited them. Sadly, they hadn't got power to defeat second powerful opponent in a row. But still, very honorable campaign for the debutants.

Winners of the Enlightened Emperor's Cup
IFCF Cup Winners' Cup:
PR: vs. O.K. Athletic Moscaritolo (GEE)  1-2 
- Away: 1-1 (Chindesen 62') 
- Home: 0-1

The Sinners managed to draw their first match, but then failed to achieve victory at home and advance further. For now, no achievements from the Kanmerin clubs in the Cup Winners Cup.

5rd place in Imperial Supreme League
FFI Confederations' Trophy:
R32: vs. Birivistice (AUP) 2-4 
- Away: 0-4  
- Home: 2-0 (Nereylik 21', Nelker 40') 

Charnin-Blakitayn continue to suffer, even with a new coach, Eduard Simnir.

Winners of the Imperial First League
IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy:
3Q: vs. Trece de Junio (SGN) 5-5 p 
- Away: 3-2 (Munehin 41', 75' Dwarsalin 64')
- Home: 2-3, p. 3-2 (Dwarsalin 5', Mikander 79')
4Q: vs. Brasta FC (SRS) 2-10 
- Home: 2-6 (Munehin 18', Gankmin 54')
- Away: 0-4 

The Gunners was an only Kanmerin team to won at least one round in the Liga B Champions Trophy, narrowly winning against their opponent in the Third qualifying round. Only to be completely humiliated in the next round. Very painful.

2nd place in Imperial First League
IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy:
2Q: vs. Kyethas Rivermen FC  (TKT) 2-3 
- Home: 1-1 (Naimin 48')
- Away: 1-2 (Traimok 87') 

Madasen also have not achieved anything. Maybe the ambitious newcomers decided to concentrate on a domestic competitions.

3rd place in Imperial First League
IFCF Liga B Champions Trophy:
2Q: vs. FC Travesian (VAL) 2-6 
- Home: 1-3 (Hrimodar 36') 
- Away: 1-3 (Marurin 77') 

But Madasen at least tried to fight against stronger opponent, not like KFK Avanti Awantar. The Roosters just surrendered.

Mikalai Dandzin
Head of the Kanmer Imperial Football Federation

After all turbulences that followied a movement to the multiverse, the classical format of the Enlightened Emperor's cup is also restored.

MATCHDAY 19
Match of the week: Rey Utarwalin 2-2 Dementer
Moment of the week: The whole match of the league leaders, Rey and Dementer. Rey's Esteban Aimar scored first, but then Royals conceded two from Raman Innhendar and Kirill Nereylik. Still, the club from Utarwalin managed to secure a draw after Euheni Rainek's goal on 90+2 minute. Could that draw demoralize Dementer in the future?

At the end, a brief review of the performance of the each Supreme League team after the first half of the season.

Dementer: may be the main sensation here. Their suffering exists only in the international competitions, but in the league right now they look amazing. Eduard Simnir made a fantastic work. At some point Demetikar had the lead of 7 points. They struggled a bit in the last matches, but still are in the first place. Mikalai Nelker is a beast right now, scoring 17 goals in 19 matches. Could their fairytale become a reality? Could thay dethrone Rey Utarwalin?

Rey Utarwalin: Anikin, don't think that your performance in the Confederations Trophy could save you completely. Rey Utarwalin is going worse than in the last season, finding themselves behind Dementer.

Rozen: Decent, as always. Even if they now placed one position below their past season result, they are still in race for IFCF cups and the title.

Torpedo Remalin: And there is another sensation. A mid-table team is fighting for the international cups spot. Great job, Guttarden. Great job, old man Habinder, who scored 9 goals at his 39 years.

DFK Kanmer: Only one point is separating the silver medalist of past season from the IFCF right now. So, not everything is lost.

Spartak Nirsen: At their usual place right now. Could also fight for the top 4.

Lichtar Awenir: Maybe, the old "Big five" (Rey, Kanmer, Dementer, Lichtar and Heynerik) is dead now. Looks like Lichtar swapped their place with Rozen.

Madasen: And here goes the third sensation. Mada is doing even better then Partizan last season, reaching the upper part of the table. Many people laughed on Euheni Walin, the club's owner, when he said that Madasen is going to fight for the highest places. If they would perform like that later, then maybe after few seasons those words would not sound too funny anymore.

Amartol: The Sinners are in the middle of the table again. Nothing extraordinary.

Reimin Reihelen: The 4th place in the last season probably was just the little success, not the beginning of a new era.

Weiswald Winar: You weren't really shit, but you weren't all that great either. Like Tottenham.

Partizan Awenir: Actually they are still doing good for a team promoted two seasons ago. Slowly turning into the mid-table team.

Heynerik Alitar: Even worse than Lichtar. Probably the main dissapointment for a second season in a row.

Reylinden: Going from the battle for the IFCF cups to the battle for avoiding relegation really fast. Although they always were the mid-table team, so it's not too unusual.

Arsenal Keiden: Doing actually good for the total newcomers, but their performance was completely overshadowed by Madasen.

Rukh Alwar: Again, nothing unusual. Calmly sitting near the relegation zone, but not being relegated. Still, it is very dangerous here, so it's unknown, could Alwariens save themselves.

Reisen: Had an awful performance in the beginning of the season, but now recovered a bit and actively fighting at least for the 17th place.

Dinamo-Auto Trisen: In his second season, Shalin doing a bit worse, but still is in the race to stay in the Supreme League.

Gardwalin: Unlucky Dementiy Dwinor lost all his first 6 matches and got fired again. The new coach, Jazep Dheinen, doing a bit better, but the possible relegation still treathens the club from Gardwalin.

KFK Avanti Awantar: Dead last, and they would probably stay there. But at least, that was more expected, as The Roosters have the worst squad in the league among all teams. For them, it is a miracle to play in the highest division. And Akindzin Wirk, who took the club when it was in the Second League (Tier 3), still leads the club.

Congratulations to Madasen for winning the 248th Enlightened Emperor's Cup, their first big trophy. A wonderful journey, where they defeated giants like Rey Utarwalin and DFK Kanmer. And completed with the abolsute dominance in the final. Seems that Euheni Walin was very serious about his club.

[Kanmer]

CCXLVIII IMPERIAL SUPREME LEAGUE SEASON. PART 2.

OOC: would be completely finished in the evening of 30th January (European time).

Dementer just bottled it. Rey Utarwalin are the champions, for a third time in a row.

MATCHDAY 33
Match of the week: Rey Utarwalin 3-4 Rukh Alwar
Moment of the week: Makar Marmodar being the leader of the Rukh team that sensationally defeated Rey Utarwalin, making the championship race harder for them.

MATCHDAY 34
Match of the week: Lichtar Awenir 2-3 Arsenal Keiden
Moment of the week: Alexander Anikin, coach of Rey Utarwalin, dancing in the locker room after a hard victory over Weiswald Winar (3-1). The score was 1-1 untill the 81th minute, but the goals of Mikita Insen (81') and Euheni Rainek (88') secured a victory for Celestials.

MATCHDAY 35
Match of the week: Rey Utarwalin 0-1 Torpedo Remalin
Moment of the week: The invincibility of Rozen's defence in a match against Lichtar Awenir (3-0).

MATCHDAY 36
Matches of the week: Weiswald Winar 7-0 KFK Avanti Awantar & Rozen 1-3 Rey Utarwalin
Moment of the week: Dementer failed to achieve a victory against Torpedo Remalin (2-2), making their fans very anxious. After the matchday 36 when their opponents in the title race, Rey Utarwalin, secured a hard away win against Rozen (3-1), only 1 points divides Dementer (80 pts) and Rey (79 pts). Which is bad for Demetikar, is that the calendar is in the favor of Rey. In the matchday 37, Dementer will meet... Rey Utarwalin, in an actual game for a title. Charnin-Blakitayn need to achieve at least draw by any ways, because in the last matchday they would play another hard game, away against 3rd-placed Rozen, while Rey will play at home against already relegated and demoralized 20th-placed Avanti Awantar.

MATCHDAY 37
Match of the week: Dementer 1-2 Rey Utarwalin
Moment of the week: Yes. The more experienced team won and clinched the leadership. Rainek and Aimar made score a comfortable 2-0 for Royals, and a late Dementer goal from Nelker had not made much impact on a game.

MATCHDAY 38
Match of the week: Dementer 0-1 Rozen
Moments of the week: Poor Avanti Awantar. In their three last remaining games in the Supreme League, they suffered three humiliating losses: 0-7 to Weiswald, 0-6 to Torpedo Remalin, and 1-5 to Rey.
Meanwhile, demoralized Dementer lost their match against Rozen.

A brief review of the second half of the season, brought to you by Ritsport.

Rey Utarwalin: Congratulations, Anikin. You made it. You clinched the third consecutive title.

Dementer: Congratulations, you bottled it. Were leaders for the most of the season and still lost. But it is still an impressive result for Eduard Simnir, as it was just his first season in charge of Dementikar. First season and already second place, a very impressive result for any team. Except, of couse, for Rey.

Rozen: Just a pure class. Calmly finished the season at the exact same position as they were after a first half.

Torpedo Remalin: Great job, Guttarden. Again and now officially. Remalin would play in the IFCF! Is it the beginning of a new era, or they repeat the fate of Reimin Reihelen, we will discover it soon.

DFK Kanmer: Not so good, but at least they would enjoy some international football next season again.

Spartak Nirsen: The top 6 is almost have not changed since matchday 19. You fought for FFI for a last matchday, but, sadly, have not reached it. Still, good result for Spartak.

Amartol: Slightly improved their position.

Lichtar Awenir: The degradation slowly continues. 5th place, then 7th and now 8th. Maybe it's time to change something. There are rumours that the club is searching for a new coach.

Madasen: Wonderful debut season. Top half finish, and, what is more important, victory in the Emperor's Cup. Would play in IFCF for a second season in a row. Is it a dream?

Reimin Reihelen: Exactly middle of a table. Still a bit worse then expected.

Heynerik Alitar: Failed to change something in the second half of the season. A big shame.

Rukh Alwar: Wonderful improvement. Only if they played for all season like they played in the second half of it...

Weiswald Winar: Fell a bit in the second half. That's worse than Tottenham.

Gardwalin: Congratulations, Dheinen! You made it! You saved a club from relegation and deserved a new contract!

Dinamo-Auto Trisen: Congratulations, Shalin! You also saved a club from relegation!

Partizan Awenir: A bit worse then in the past season, but still decent for them. I hope they would not degrade further and be relegated in the next season...

Reisen: They just... refused to leave their 17th place.

Arsenal Keiden: You are lucky that your opponent in the relegation palayoffs was just Harodki. Really deserved relegation after their downfall in the second half.

Reylinden: It's actually happened. A mid-table team gets relegated. From the 2nd place after matchday 2, to the 19th place. A full journey.

KFK Avanti Awantar: Just accepted their fate of being the weakest team of the league.

NATIONAL IMPERIAL BASKETBALL LEAGUE. SEASON CCXLVI (246).
PART 1.

A match between Senkom-Torpedo and Rey Utarwalin. 11 May 2024.

The structure of National Imperial Basketball League is a bit similar to a football one. The first tier of national basketball is called Imperial Basketball Championship and consists of 12 clubs. It uses a usual league system, and teams that finished first and second are qualified to IUBC. In this season, there were no playoffs. Instead, another trophy exists - Lodsen's Cup. It's a cup competition where clubs from all two divisions + some clubs from regional leagues are participating. Every round consists of one match and the winner of the cup gains the third qualification spot to the IUBC.

Dwartiman (former Drakon) and Rey, the two strongest basketball clubs, as always fought for the title against each other, leaving no chances for other clubs. Dwartiman, who is a bit stronger and also regarded as a main club for Kanmer Imperial Basketball Team, had won the title.

IMPERIAL FIRST LEAGUE.

The second division is called Imperial Basketball Championship First League and 8 clubs are competing here, although two of them are Dwartiman and Rey's reserves. In the 246th season, Rey II managed to finish second, but as they are reserves of the top division club, they cannot be promoted. The second promotion spot was given to Kanmer-Telekom, who finished third.

RALSALIEN HIGHEST LEAGUE
SEASON CCXXIX (229) PREVIEW

Let's again have a look on the final standings of the Season CCXXVIII (228). They underwent some changes.

It could be seen, that after the end of the season, four clubs have left the highest Ralsalien division. In addition to the two worst teams, Tekstilschik Novoramsin and Rathom 1917, 8th-placed Epiphanien became bankrupt after the end of a season and was dissolved. 6th-placed Gothmin, due to financial problems, failed to obtain a professional license for the CCXXIX season and was relegated to the 3rd division, which is now called Ralsalien Second League.

The four new teams include winner of the Noble League Triraisen Arlekin and SpVgg Eintracht-Spartak Das, who is now called just Spartak Rinkarwar, Spartak from the city of Rinkarwar. The third newcomer is Rotor Hrindene, who initially lost a promotion/relegation playoff against Emperor Damian Academy. There was still one free place in the Highest League, but no one from the Noble League accepted the invitation to the highest division, fearing huge expenses. And so, the fourth place in the CCXXIX Highest League was given to the IFK Kagepara 03, winner of the Ralsalien third division. Aristarkh Diogen Veerman is happy now.

In Ralsalien Noble League, which from the season CCXXIX would be called just Ralsalien First League, Valiant Noble and Min-Mann were also dissolved after their bankruptcy. The newly promoted First League teams are Torpedo Rinkan, FK Start Sarogesaar, and Dinamo-98 Kogeru.

Due to non-fulfillment of liabilities in the prescribed terms, 5 points were deducted from Randhom after matchday 12, and almost all players left the team after matchday 16. Randhom was forced to play the remaining games with young academy players. This doesn't end well, and in the matchday 21 game against Skonto Rinkan, Randhom 06 was thrashed 1-9. After the end of the season, the club went bankrupt and was dissolved.

4. After the matchday 16 loss to Emperor Damian Academy (1-2), the coach of Dasein, Kensorin Vitaljev, was beaten by angry fans because of a bad performance (they see every result except first place as a failure). After that, Dasein was forced to play every remaining home match behind closed doors, and Dasein fans were banned from attending away matches.

5. A dog peed on the football field during the game of matchday 5 between Rotor Hrindene and FC Randhom 06 (1-0).

Ralsalien football officials missed that unequal number of teams left and entered Ralsalien First League after season 228. 4 teams left the division, while only 3 entered, and therefore, 11 teams participated in the 229th edition of the First League, not 12, as always. Football officials noticed that only few days before the start of the season and decided not to change anything. What a fucking shame. Ralsalin can't live a day without some fucking idiotism.
IFK Elwinder also went bankrupt and dissolved.
