Many of my Robert Walters TOTW write ups have had me talking about how open Division 1 is this season. This can also be said for Division 2 & 3.
The weekend saw the top 4 in Division 2 all win. 3 points separate them all. Suns FC narrowly missed out on promotion last season and are aiming to go the extra mile to make sure they claim a top 2 finish this season.
On Saturday they faced Fussa FC at YC&AC. Suns were on the front foot throughout the first half and found themselves 3-1 up at half time.
This week's Robert Walters team of the week goes to Nepal United after coming out on top of a slugfest. It is always difficult playing against the Albion Old Boys at the St. Marys Pitch as it is there home turf, accustomed to the shorter than usual pitch. Nepal United was seemingly in charge of the game with a 4-0 lead until the Albion Old Boys came back with 4 goals of their own. Nepal United finished second to last place in Season 15 but this years Nepal United are different.

Every time a Division 1 team wins the Robert Walters TOTW award I always seem to talk about how open the league is. This weekend was no different and this report will go along these usual lines.....Division 1 is wide open.
Pumas defeated Celts 7-1 which was impressive, Swiss finally got a team together and defeated Zion 5-2, FCI continued their good form but this weeks TOTW award goes to Panthers FC.
It's been a tough few weeks for Sala FC.
The death of a former team mate was closely followed by a penalty shootout defeat to Albion Old Boys in the FJ Cup.
Sunday saw them take on Dutch FC who had beaten them 3-1 back in September. Sala achieved something during this game that I doubt many teams do throughout the season. They scored 4 headed goals.
The headers were scored by Fuyuki Nakatani and Anthony Hall. 2 each...Not bad lads!
Division 1 is looking as open as it ever has since I took over the league in 2011. The top 6 are separated by 3 points as are the bottom 4 teams.
Saturday saw Musketeers FC face Panthers FC in a relegation 6 pointer. Both teams were coming of convincing FJ Cup victories. Panthers defeated Dutch 4-2 and Musketeers knocked 11 past Vags.

I first met Guido early 1997 in Tsudanuma. Guido had just started at Nova and I was paired to mentor him in his first demo lesson....
Before Saturdays game Eastern Capital had started their debut season well with 2 victories and 1 defeat. At Shin Suna they faced a King George team that was unbeaten in this calander month!
The game started on a beautiful evening and Eastern Capital were on the front foot. Knocking the ball around like they had played together for years.
They took a deserved lead through a fine move with Kazuki Kodama striking the ball well into the bottom corner.
