The men of Rohan have no love for Sauron, and so it was that from the beginning Dunharrow appeared to be trying to rough up Sauron and his Wilderland squad. Unfortunately, all it did was arouse the wrath of a quality side that was planning on just kicking it around.

After getting serious and putting up two goals Wilderland played ball control through the rest of the half. To start the second half Wilderland pushed again and gained a third goal. After that Dunharrow actually stopped with the bruising attempts and played some offense, but the Wilderland defense staved them off.

The matchup of the sea-realms was an absolute snoozer for scoring fans. The Dunedain and the Lonely Isle both were keen to save their energy for group play and didn’t wish to reveal any set plays, and that combined with their stellar defensive talent and teamwork made for a no-goal game.

Pelori came in prepared to kick it around and get on to the tournament, but The Downer went after them and thanks to a successful box-swarming took the lead. In the second half Pelori did a fine job of building attacks carefully with some nice passing and pulled even with The Downer, and they also started pushed back against the underhanded Downers, and The Downer seemed a bit cowed by their display of power. Soon Pelori had the lead, and Manwe called off the dogs and ran the clock down.

Neither the hobbits nor the Werewolves came in giving full effort, but Werewolves are just a nightmare match-up for hobbits and Tol In Gaurhoth found themselves an easy three goal lead by the half.

In half #2 the Shire-Bree defense thought they’d get a bit grab-happy and throw in some sly tripping. NogWolf encouraged the team to just put up with it as they were easily tough enough to take it, but the football diva PhantomWolf demanded another score as punishment, as he was most displeased with having his jersey grabbed and stretched. "They aren't showing me proper respect!"

Most of the Wolves were sporting enough not to give him the ball, but SallyWolf was completely on the same page and made a successful run with him to give a four goal lead, and to add injury to insult both drew cards soon after for hard fouls against Bill the donkey.

Shire-Bree suddenly retreated into their shells soon after, leaving many fans puzzled, but after the contest rumors emerged that PhantomWolf threatened to eat Bill the donkey if Shire-Bree didn’t fold. Investigations are pending.
