Round 4 of Group A began with two teams in need of a victory. Saga Louts and The Special Ones were struggling down in 5th and 6th position. Only goal difference separated them and only the one goal at that. There were still 6 points on offer so a place in the Plate was still feasible but if either team were to qualify they realistically had to win this. A draw would not be much use for either team in the context of the Group A table.

The first goal of this game was likely to be crucial. If either team was to concede the first goal there could well be that sinking feeling. A goal lead would be a welcome boost to the team who could claim it. Larry Moore was the man to score the all important goal and Saga Louts never looked back.

A Richard Holliday goal made it 2-0 before half-time. After the change of ends Holliday was on target again for 3-0. Larry Moore added his second of the game for 4-0 before Richard Holliday went on to seal his hat-trick to round off a superb 5-0 win.

Up next on Pitch C was the big one – Compact Records versus FC Miracle. Both teams had a 100% record so far with 3 wins from 3. One, or potentially both, of these teams would lose that record here. The winner of this game would virtually guarantee Cup qualification. A draw would see both teams edge closer but make it very tight – especially if Talhos Mariete were to win in the next game.

We thought before the tournament that FC Miracle would be the team to watch and after 3 games they were the team to beat. They had scored 12 goals without reply so far. Compact Records were not too far behind with a goal difference of 11-2.

This was the toughest game FC Miracle had played so far but they still managed to forge ahead when Zoltan Kedves scored his first goal of the tournament. The Hungarian team lead 1-0 at half-time.

In the second half Laszlo Zsolt doubled the lead with what was to be his 11 th goal of the tournament. Laszlo Zsolt has one top goalscorer award to his name already when he scored 12 goals at the 2012 Valencia Fives. He would almost certainly win the award here in Lisbon. Would his goals fire FC Miracle to victory?

They did in this game (2-0) but we would have to wait and see if they were enough to win the entire tournament. So far so good for FC Miracle though.

Telferscot Athletic were back in action when they entertained Talhos Mariete. Telferscot Athletic's 3-1 win over The Special Ones seemed a long time ago now with two demoralizing defeats against FC Miracle and Compact Records. This looked like another difficult fixture ahead of the English team.

Talhos Mariete, which literally translates as Mariete Butchers, were on form. They narrowly lost 2-1 to Compact Records before two wins in a row. Talhos Mariete forged ahead again here when Alexandre Teixeira and Bruno Silva put them two up by the break. There was to be no further addition to the score in the second period as the Portuguese claimed their third win in succession to move up to second in the table.

Telferscot Athletic slipped a place in the table from fourth to fifth.
