Game 64

Coach Pine and James Teager still lead the way - three games gone, three games won for them in their respective leagues.  Bournemouth beat David Burton's Derby 2-0, goals from Wilson and Ritchie, and are three points clear of Celtic, Man City and Wolves.  John Ferrier's Celtic side won 3-0 at Phil Dean's Villa, Jamie Maycroft's Manchester City won 1-0 at home to Ethan's Arsenal and Rich Coupland's Wolves side beat Duncan Martin's Rangers 2-0 thanks to a brace from Correa, both coming in the second half after Podolski had been dismissed for the Glasgow side in the first.

The top two are now three clear in division 1, Craig Rathey's Scarborough recording a thumping 6-0 victory away at Hibernian, but Kirk Greenway's West Ham keeping up with them thanks to a probably more impressive 2-0 home victory over Sam Roberts' Doncaster, Balde bagging both.  Doncaster, along with Scarborough, were probably pre-season promotion favourites, and these are only their first dropped points, but all indications are that it's going to be a five team shoot out for the two automatic promotion spots.  Level with Doncaster now are Chris Burton's Sheffield Wednesday, who won 2-0 at home to Wigan, and James West's Newcastle - 4-2 victors at West Brom.

James Teager's Real Madrid top Serie A, goals from Icardi and Zaza as they beat James Bartaby's PSV 2-0 at the Bernabeu.  Gerard O'Brien's Bayern Munich drop from second to sixth in the table as they can only draw 2-2 at home to Joe Spencer's Atletico - that's Joe's first point of the season.  Glen Pine's Basle beat Richard Ladd's PSG 2-1 to take second spot, one of four clubs who are three points behind the leaders.  Rich Coupland's Lazio are also there - Falcao with a hat-trick, including two penalties, as his side beat James West's AC Milan.  Bazz Wetton's Antwerp had a late Negredo goal to thank as they came from behind to win 2-1 at home to Benfica whilst Dave Burton's Mini Mars also left it late, Meyer with their winner fifteen minutes from time at home to Mark Wheat's Juve.

Three sides still have 100% records in Serie B, Patrick Lyons' NY Red Bull top on goal difference after a 2-0 home win against Inter Milan.  Hayden Dando's Roma also there after beating Shaktar Donetsk 3-2 along with Duncan  Martin's Palermo, after a 1-0 win against Parma.  Jamie Maycroft's Dnipro are just two points back from those three after a 4-1 home win over Fiorentina.
