The Start

Season 5 started with more surprises as the lesser sides shocked the big guns. Vadern Oranje was the first top side to taste the cruelty of defeat as Greek side Going Green FC was merciless up front as they escaped with a narrow victory over the Fins. The Greek had a slow start to their campaign last season but tonight's win will prove to be crucial for them as they plan a new start for this season. Asterios Papandreou was the star of the night as he grabbed both goals and sent his side to 6th place after the opening game.

There are also real thrillers in the opening fixtures. Both Galaxy FC and Fishnette United went home with 3 points after scrapping home a win after late winners from their players. Fishnette United's Jaiwon Ahn grabbed this week's headlines as he scored a brilliant hat-trick as a warning to the X League that the Koreans mean business this season. Now both Fishnette and Galaxy take 4th and 5th place respectively.
