An unseasonably warm Saturday morning and an agreeable kick off time of 11:00 AM made for the prospect of another enjoyable day in the Bunwer League for the 2015/16 Apertura champions as they took on a mid-table side who have proved stubborn opposition in previous campaigns. Amiviajes came into the match having come close to […]

The lads were up for the game after a 6-3 win the previous week and wanted a better goalscoring record. Rami opted for a more traditional 4-4-2 this week. The stage was set as they took to the field in Cuidad de Rayo Vallecano. The back line consisted of a returning Hutch in net, Ricky, […]
