Mexico 3-1 France

 After a bruising defeat to Argentina, Mexico needed a reaction fro their key players and they got it! Maverick got things off to a flying start with a great run on the right, followed by a well-placed pass to Max in the middle. Max scored to make it 1-0. Not long after, the brothers swapped roles, Max providing an assist for Maverick but Mattia made a fantastic save - the first of many! Les Bleus equalised when Freddie played in Edo and, as usual, Edo didn't miss the chance: 1-1. Maverick had a chance to put Mexico ahead before the interval but... Mattia saved. And straight after the turn-around, Mattia saved another one, this time from Max. But Max was not to be denied. Carlo played a long ball into space and Max burned the defence with a devastating turn of pace before drilling the ball into the bottom corner. Freddie had a great chence to equalilse off Edo's pass but he blasted the ball over the bar. Maverick forced Mattia into yet another great save and Tor made a great save too, stopping Edoardo from adding a second. The last goal was a cracker. Simone forced his way through two tackles, played a one-two with Gianluigi and buried the shot!

BEST PLAYER POINTS:  Mattia 6, Max 5, Maverick 4, Simone 3, Gianluigi 1, Tor 1, Edoardo 1

Argentina 5-2 Mexico

 After an early burst where Gianluigi set up Maverick for a fine opening strike, Mexico's play deteriorated and the contrast between their frenetic and disorganized approach compared to the calmness and neatness in the Argentinian play was evident. Noel controlled the ball and played a lovely pass to Mostafa; his vertical pass released Jacopo for the equaliser. In the second half, Argentina's next goal also came from  Noel pass, this time straight to Steve who slammed the ball home. Antoine made it 3-1, following up a save from Jacopo's free kick and Ccarlo nearly pulled one back but Giovanni made a brave save. Tor was too casual and presented Antoine with a second goal to make it 41. Carlo did pull one back then when Max played him in after a fine run that cut through the Argentinian midfield. Jacopo scored a trademark goal to seal the win.

BEST PLAYER POINTS: Antoine 3, Jacopo 3, Noel 3, Steve 3, Gianluigi 2, Carlo 2, Maverick 1, Max 1, Mostafa 1, Simone 1, Giovanni V 1

AICS League: Ambrit 6-4 Semplicitas

 After last week's defeat, Ambrit stormed back today to capture the three points in an exciting game that saw the lead change hands three times. Both teams started strongly and both teams bagged two early goals - Giovanni+Diego - to leave the score at 2-2. The visitors, well-organised and full of running, then hit Ambrit twice without response and charged into a 4-2 lead. But Ambrit were playing well. Led by an inspired Giovanni Mori in midfield and by Diego Amendola up front, the Tajani boys dragged themselves back to 4-4 as Giovanni completed his hat-trick. Next up, Lorenzo Levi: he collected the ball on the half-way line, took a few steps to set himself up and then unleashed a rocket into the top corner to put Ambrit ahead! The victory was sealed when Giovanni dribbled through the entire defence to score his fourth of the day!
