WEEKEND WRAP: Sunday 7/31 : Features Goals in Sweden, Bosnia

Today was one of those busy, but unremarkable day's. We saw a couple of players starting with new clubs, loanee Caleb Stanko, Robbie Kristo, AJ Soares all made debut's. Ken Gipson started for RB Leipzig II, Connor O'Brien continues to start, and 2 Americans in Bosnia, Danijal Brkovic and Nermin Crnkic both played the first 2 games of the season (Brkovic has scored in both games)

To the list;

GK Daniel Schmidt and Yamaga visited Tokushima in Japan J League 2 and came away with a point as they drew 2 - 2. Yamaga has slipped into 2nd place, but still in a good position for promotion

Caleb Stanko went 90 minutes for Vaduz as they fell to league leaders, Basel in the Swiss Super League 1 - 5. This was Caleb's first appearance for his new club, probably not one he will want to remember

In Germany 3Liga, Marc Heider (87) and Robbie Kristo (13) helped their team Osnabruck win their season opener at Munster 0 - 1, good omen, lets hope

In Sweden's Superettan, GK Josh Wicks (90) and Tristan Bowen (66 + Yellow) helped get their team AFC Utd. back on track, as they beat Varbergs 0 - 2, solidifying 3rd place in the league - 2 points out of 2nd place and 4 points out of the top spot

In Germany Regionalliga (Nordost) Matsumi Okada (90) and Schonberg hosted Devann Yao (90) and BAK 07 in their season opener. Schonberg had little trouble with the visitors winning the game 3 - 0

Also in Regionalliga (Nordost) Ken Gipson (90) and RB Leipzig II won their opener at home 2 - 0 against Hertha II

In Denmark's Superliga, Connor O'Brien (90 + Yellow) has now played in all three games for Horsens and all three have been draws !! Today they kept the streak alive as Horsens and Connor drew 2 - 2 at (busy with Europa League Qualifying) Brondby

In Sweden Division 2 (Norrland) Bodens continued their travels up the league table with a 1 - 2 win at Valbo. Eddy Prugh started, went 90 and Scored Bodens first goal. Bodens are now in 3rd spot, 2 points away from automatic promotion.

In Germany Oberliga (Bayern Nord) Julian Ceesay (90) and Amberg walloped Erlenbach 6 - 0

In Sweden's Allsvenskan, GK Matt Pyzdrowski was in 18/DNP as Helsingborg visited Hacken and gained a point in a 1 - 1 draw

In Bosnia's Premier League Celik Zenica visited Radnik Bijeljina and came away with a 2 - 3 win. Danijal Brkovic Scored Celik Zenica's 3rd and winning goal in ET (90+1), that's 2 goals in 2 games for his new team

A full menu of games in Finland today

In Veikkausliiga, KuPS and GK Craig Hill (in 18/DNP) hosted RoPS and Will John (73) in a 1 - 1 draw. Just 1 point separates the two 4th and 5th spots.

Veikkausliiga leaders Mariehamn and Brian Span (90) visited Lahti and only managed a 1 - 1 draw. The result opens the door for HJK to gain and pass Mariehamn at the top, they are now just 1 point behind

In Ykkonen, Mike Banner (90) and KPV held off JJK after falling behind, to win this one 2 - 1

In Kakkonen (Group C) Jossimer Sanchez went 90 as Narpes Kraft fell 0 - 3 to MuSa (who now share top spot) Narpes are far enough above the drop zone that they should survive

GK Scott Angevine (90) and YPA had their 5 game win streak ended by league leaders OPS 1 - 3. It had to come to an end sometime, no shame in losing to top team.

In Norway Tippeligaen, #3 Brann and GK Alex Horwath (in 18/DNP) beat #2 ODD 1 - 3 - Brann are now just 1 point out of 2nd place (both Brann and ODD are in Europa League spots)

In Denmark Superliga, AJ Soares got his first 16 minutes of playing time with Aarhus as they suffered their first loss at home to Randers 1 - 2 


In Bosnia Premier League, Nermin Crnkic put in a days work for Sarajevo as they won 2 - 0 over Zrinjski, with a 1 and 1 record (4pts) they share top spot with a slew of clubs.


Cole Grossman (90 + Yellow) and Stabaek visited Stromsgodset in Norway's Tippeligaen, after 3 goals in the first 7 minutes things calmed down and the game ended a 2 - 2 draw. The fortunes of both clubs are affected by the result - Stabaek are just above the relegation zone on GD and Stromsgodset are just out of European Play, by GD
