The first set of fixtures had been completed so it was quickly on to Round 2. The opening game of the round saw FK Aliance taking on Patagonia.

FK Aliance had become the first team from Latvia to compete in our events outside of our Riga Tournament when they drew 1-1 with PVDC Eindhoven. Their only previous eurofootballfives.com appearance saw them compete at the 2016 Riga Tournament. They played in a really tight Group A that featured 3x winners L'Albiceleste of France. They collected 3 draws and two defeats (both by the odd goal). They finished fifth and qualified for the Trophy competition. In the Trophy they saw off The Crazy Gang (3-0) in the Quarters, crushed Riga United (8-1) in the Semis before meeting FC Maroon in the final. The Trophy Final ended 0-0 and required a penalty shoot to decide matters. FC Aliance emerged victorious 3-2 on penalties.

The Latvian team were up against Patagonia who won their opener 2-0. Patagonia would not make it 2 from 2 though. Kristaps Tavlavicus scored the only goal of the game in the first half to give his team their first win of the day.

 
 
 

The second game of Round 2 was Black Sheep versus PVDC Eindhoven. The former were looking to get another 3 points on the board, the latter were looking to build on an opening point.

After a 6 year hiatus, Black Sheep made a comeback a t the 2018 Barcelona Fives last year. They started off well with a 3-0 win over Rain Dragons but then ran into the might of AC Mazi 1996 and lost 6-1. A 3-2 loss to New Wave Funk followed before a 1-0 win over Wonder Vision. They finished the group phase with a 4-3 defeat to Los Portugalitos. It meant 4 th place out of 6 and a place in the Plate. They fell at the Quarter-Final stage (5-4) to CMTB Pumas.

Although early, they were looking stronger this year. A 3-0 win first time up was now followed with a 4-0 win. Jack Stratford took his total to 4 goals for the tournament, there was a first goal for Josh Southall and Dani Conejo Rodriguez scored for the second game in a row.

 
 
 

To complete Round 2 we had RAF Fylingdales versus Paralytic Athletic U23s. Both teams were looking to bounce back from opening game defeats.

RAF Fylingdales played in the 2013 Barcelona Fives and drew Group E which featured the Plate winners The Depo All Stars, 2 x Plate Runners-up and 1 time Trophy Runners-up Drunk Perfect, Plate Runners-Up JF and the Pullbacks plus Elcombe Old Boys who have a record of just 2 defeats in 19 games in Barcelona. RAF Fylingdales went out in the Trophy Play-off 3-0 to ADP Dream Team (Spa).

2017 saw them return to Barcelona Fives. They finished fourth in their 8-team group with 4 wins and 3 defeats. It saw them qualify for the Plate competition where they went out to the eventual Plate winners, LT United of Lithuania, at the Quarter-Final stage.

They were now in their third appearance at the Barcelona Fives and although they suffered defeat in their first game, things were looking a little brighter when Jim Williams gave them a first half lead. Paralytic Athletic U23s hit back though. Goals from Stuart Shaw and Jonathan Clark turned this game around. Paralytic Athletic walked off the field with all 3 points in a 2-1 win.
