Chelsea 2-2 Liverpool

Chelsea sprinted ahead early in the game but were caught in the end by a determined Liverpool.
Guerrino put the reds ahead with a slightly lucky goal but he was awake enough to take the opportunity. But, by half-time, Sam had slotted away two goals thanks to his physical presence and mental awareness and Chelsea were in the driving seat.
In the second half, Liverpool piled on the pressure and they won a penalty when Francesco R pushed Lapo in the box. Michael stepped confidently up but Peter made a fantastic save. Liverpool did not give up though and, just one minute later, Lapo scored the equaliser. A game full of incident ended with Manfredi's second yellow card and he was shown the red. Manfredi will miss the next game.
BEST PLAYER POINTS: Peter 6, Sam 4, Giuseppe 4, Francesco R 4, Finnian 2, Tanner 1.

Valencia 2 - 0 Real Madrid

Dopo la vittoria all'esordio, il Real Madrid non riesce a ripetersi di fronte a un Valencia combattivo e organizzato, capace di bloccare ogni tentativo di Margarida &Co. verso la porta.
Il Valencia parte forte e pressa molto alto, ma non riesce a trovare spazi, anche a causa di una difesa in gamba e ben schierata - in particolare ottime prove di Matilde e Raffaella. Finalmente un'imbeccata di Lucrezia trova Jean pronta a battere Leila tra i pali. Il Real Prova a reagire, ma Gaia, Lucrezia e Ginevra sembrano essere dappertutto. Mia lotta con determinazione, ma - sul finire del secondo tempo - il raddoppio della neoentrata Lea smorza ogni speranza di rimonta madrilista. 2-0 e primi punti anche per il Valencia.

PLAYER OF THE MATCH POINTS:
Matilde 5, Lucrezia 4, Mia 3, Gaia 2, Ginevra 2, Leila 1, Lea 1, Celeste 1,  Jean 1.

Chelsea 3-1 Man Utd

The first half ended scoreless and Manfredi's header - well saved by Andrew - was the best chance.
In the second half, prompted by a patient Francesco R in midfield, Chelsea'a attacking trident helped themselves to a goal each: first Sam, then Manfredi with a stunning lob from the left touchline and then Niccolò. The sequence was interrupted by a well-struck goal from Ramnath but the Red Devils wasted too many other chances.

Manchester City 1 - 1 Liverpool

These two teams sent the crowd away happy, having witnessed a mighty battle between two teams who can definitely hope to win this year's title.
The first half finished scoreless but was an exciting contest. Edo R came closeest to a goal but Ascanio pulled off an excellent save to deny him.
In the second half though, Edo was not to be denied and his tenacity was awarded with a 4th minute goal. The game got better and better as City pressed forward looking for an equaliser and Tiberio was Liverpool's saviour. Having gone into goal at half-time, he pulled off a string of excellent saves from shots by Sasha and Edo P. Aden though he had equalised when his lob from the touchline went in over Tiberio but referee Corcoran had already blown for a foul throw.
The, with only seconds on the clock, City won another corner. The ball was hurled in, broke to Alessandro and he banged it in to salvage a point for City.
