When Alphasights met Wokingham FC we were in must win territory already. With the two teams losing their opening games they needed a win to join the leaders and give themselves hope of winning a medal. Defeat now would ensure they would be going home empty-handed. A draw, in truth, whilst better than a defeat would not be a great deal of use.

Alphasights were on the receiving end of a heavy defeat in the first Plate game but this time they were the ones dishing it out. Gregory Stalcup opened the scoring, Rob Wooton made it and Stalcup scored again for Alphasights whilst Edward Bending scored for Wokingham FC. At 3-1 down the team from Berskshire had it all to do

Charles Sutherland ensured that task would become more difficult when he made it 4-1 and then Carsten Brinkmann made it 5-1 to round off a miserable game for Wokingham FC. For Alphasights it was not only a great 3 points but it also helped address their goal difference issues from Round 1. Things were looking up for them.

On Pitch B, the Irish Mbassy versus Atlantic Star result would go a long way to deciding the outcome of the Plate group. A win for either would put them 3 points clear and well on their way. A draw would be particularly interesting and give Alphasights a sniff of glory. In a close first half it was the Irish Mbassy who poked their noses ahead through Andy Keogh's 3rd goal of the day.

What now for Atlantic Star? Could they get back into it or would their hopes of glory fade? They were beginning to look a little weary and the Irish Mbassy, with the larger squad, took full advantage. Ian Corkhill helped himself to two good second half goals as Tez Fogg could do nothing in the Atlantic Star goal to prevent his team slipping to a 3-0 defeat. All was not lost for Atlantic Star and a result in their final game would see them pick-up medals of some variety. Irish Mbassy had one hand on the Plate trophy.
