There would be no magic from Merlijns FC in Group C as the Dutch team were forced to withdraw before kick-off. Each of the other four teams would collect a 3-0 walkover victory. Blazers Army would be the first beneficiaries and so they would have to wait a little longer for their debut.

Tom Tom Go and Bull Heads would make their debut though in the Amsterdam sunshine on Pitch C. It was the English team who started the tournament in perfect style as Nicky Walsh kickstarted their campaign. It was to get even better when Jose Fernandes made it 2-0 and the Bull Heads found themselves two goals to the good at the break. In the second half they extended their lead after Jose Fernandes bagged his second. There was to be no further scoring as the game finished 3-0.

FC Biermeisters Sud collected three walkover points before starting their on-field campaign against Blazers Army. The Blazers Army were the youngest team to grace a eurofootballfives.com competition and would pit their youthful energy and exhuberance against the experience of the Biermeisters. Experience may well have told as the first goal of the game was scored by Jim Handy. With an entourage of cheerleaders to keep the Biermeisters going on the field, the first half Handy goal would prove enough to take all three points in a 1-0 win.

Blazers Army would have the chance to bounce back immediately when they took on Tom Tom Go who themselves were looking to claim their first win. It was the Blazing Squad of Blazers Army who opened the scoring when Bradley Garber scored their first goal in Europe . It was a lead they were to take into half-time. After the break, with the confidence of a lead, they found their goalscoring boots. A double from Jordan Sapler plus goals from Ryan Kaye and Liam Stein made the lead emphatic. Tom Tom Go responded through Toby Van Zijl but it was only a consolation in a 5-1 defeat.
