PVDC Eindhoven came into Round 2 on the back of a fine 3-0 win. Ecuador 100 were looking to build upon what looked to be a decent 2-2 draw.

As briefly touched upon in Round 1, Ecuador 100 were making their seventh appearance at the Mallorca Tournament. They had a tough introduction at the 2012 Mallorca Tournament as they were drawn in a group with 2 previous eurofootballfives.com winners (2 x winners Inter Women and 4 x winners Olympic Phil Babb). They finished 4th in their 6 team group to qualify for the Plate Quarter-Finals where they exited 4-2 at the hands of Whiteley Stags.

In the Mallorca Fives of May 2013 they also finished 4th in a group that contained 2 previous eurofootballfives.com winners (Skidmarks and Policia Mallorca) and went on to the Plate competition – which they won! They followed this up at the Mallorca Tournament of June 2013 by finishing 3 rd in their 6-team group. They qualified for the Plate again and won their Quarter-Final 4-2 against Whiteley Bad Boys before a 2-1 Semi-Final defeat to Have Ago Heroes.

2014 saw another 4th -placed finish in the group before a 3-1 Plate Quarter-Final defeat to Brioche. 2015 was their most successful tournament to date as they won Group A with 13 points from a possible 15. They then exited at the Quarter-Final stage, 2-1, at the hands of Policia Local.

At the 2017 Mallorca Tournament last June they recorded 3 wins and 2 defeats to finish second in Group B. They drew 1-1 with Melee FC in the Quarters before winning 2-1 on penalties. This was the furthest they'd progressed in the tournament but they were not done yet as they defeated Mallorca Look, 2-0, in the Semi-Finals. They couldn't quite go all the way as they lost in the Cup Final to Wilmslow Whoppers.

They then appeared at the 2018 Mallorca Fives in May as Algaiga Golf. They finished third in Group B with 2 wins and 2 draws from their 5 games. In the Plate Semi-Finals they won 4-3 (v Jackson's Five) before securing a 4-1 win in the Cup Final (v Multiple Scorgasms).

In Round 2 here, just the one goal settled the game. It went to Ecuador 100 and Alfredo was the match-winner.

 
 

Fiorentina Turner 1 were up next against 3 Lions FC in a game that saw two teams come face to face who each picked up a draw in Round 1. A win for either would see them join Ecuador 100 at the top of the table.

Fiorentina Turner made a promising debut at the 2017 Barcelona Fives. The ‘1' team produced 5 wins in 7 games which surprisingly only saw them finish fourth of eight teams – a tad harsh. They qualified for the Plate where 4-0 and 4-2 wins in the Quarters and Semis saw them reach a debut final. It was just one step too far as Lithuanian side LT United claimed the Plate victory.

After that opening draw it looked like they were finding their groove here. Matt Perry set them on their way and they never looked back. Jack Busby made it 2-0, Harry Boys 3-0 and Jack Busby 4-0. Matt Perry then completed what he started with a late hat-trick to complete a sensational 7-0 win from the perspective of Fiorentina Turner 1. It didn't look so sensational from a 3 Lions perspective.

 
 
 

The game that would complete Round 2 was Purnell Youth 2 versus Yac Club Reserves. Yac Club Reserves were looking to bounce back from a 3-0 defeat at the start of the day. Purnell Youth 2 had drawn 0-0 so were looking to build on this with their first goal and first win of the tournament.

Yac Club Reserves were looking for their first goal of the day too and they scored it through Jonathon Rollongs. They found themselves pegged back though with Brad Hooper scoring his team's first of the tournament. At 1-1 the game was delicately poised.

The spotlight was on Jonathon Rollings again when he made it 2-1 to Yac Club Reserves. He had a chance to turn the screw when Yac Club Reserves won a penalty. The chance of a hat-trick went begging though as he missed from the spot. It didn't prove costly for his team though as they saw out a 2-1 win.
