Of Note. Jeff Gal got another clean sheet this weekend for BK Forward. Jeff has, if my numbers are correct, 9 clean sheets in 19 games ( a wow! moment for Jeff please) Lawrence Smith scored twice in 12 minutes to lead GBK to a 2 - 3 victory. Emerson Hyndman (almost) back from injury scored for the U21 team in Bournemouth. Aaron Schoenfeld got an Assist in the M. Tel Aviv victory in the Europa League, they are through to the group round. Lyndon Gooch had a hand in both of Sunderland's goals scoring and assisting as Sunderland won 2 - 1. Newcomer Gerald Ben has now played 3 games for MiKi in Finland and he has scored in each game - pretty good way to introduce yourself. Finally, Joel Sonora gets 2 goals and Maki Tall get 1 off the bench. OK to the list

Mix Diskerud started for Goteborg in their 0 - 5 win at, 3rd Division, Landvetter, but unfortunately I cannot tell you if he lasted a minute/the whole game or somewhere in-between. I can tell from the Goteborg website that they played much (if not all) of the 2nd half with their Youth Squad. I have praised the Swedish FA in the past for its wonderful web-site - but I am guessing with minnows still in the competition receiving the detailed info is hard for even them.
