REFEREE
---------------
NOMINATIONS
FAITHFOLD GREEN
Chaim Kraus (striker) – should have a hat-trick at least. Really tormented the Hampstead Ducks' centre-back
---------------
CLUB DE CHIGWELL
Harrison Grant (midfield) - Another superb performance from our number 11. A cool finish for our first goal and a naughty back-heel assist for our second. Constant threat with his passing and rarely gave the ball away
---------------
HENDON UNITED SPORTS
Josh Bharier (attack) - 4 goals from 5 shots on his debut
Rocky Spitzer, Jonny Kay, Yehuda Korman (midfield) - as a midfield three ran rings around the opposition
Josh Harris (attack) - played superbly as both a striker and central midfielder, linked up well and contributed to some lovely football, deserved his goal
---------------
BORUSSIA BARNET
Oliver Smith (defence) - unbelievable performance at centre-back, playing out of position
Jack Mattey (midfield) - a constant threat, scored 2 could’ve had more and did it all carrying an injury
---------------
NORTH LONDON RAIDERS
Seb Garber (CAM) - making his debut for the club. Pulled the strings in the number 10 role and helped himself to two goals and an assist
Aron Gale (striker) - bought on with 20 minutes to go with the score 4-3, had two chances, scored twice to make it 6-3
Dan Behar (defence) - another debut. Solid at right-back. Up and down the flank whilst doing a solid job in defence
---------------
NORTH WEST LONDON BEARS
James Harpin (goalkeeper) - kept the Bears in the game, three or four ridiculous saves to earn a point. FC Team nominated Harpin for MOTM on their Twitter
Tommy Lustigman (defence) - man-mountain at centre back. Kept Richard Salmon in his pocket all game. An unbelievable performance
Alex Rose (midfield) - worked tirelessly to win the ball back for the Bears. Kept Connor Perl quiet for the majority of the game, putting in an Ander Herrera vs Hazard-esq performance
---------------
REDBRIDGE JEWISH CARE
Richard Gold (defence) - our versatile defender. Whether it was right-back or left-back , didn't put a foot wrong. I think I could play him in goal and he'd still do a job for us!
---------------
HERTSWOOD VALE
- Ashley Hirschberger (centre-back) – another solid performance from Vale’s record appearance maker. Kept Galaxy's forward line quiet during the match with countless interceptions and headers, which meant keeper Ben Brown had very little to do. Unfortunate to be on the losing side
- James Neidle (centre-back) – a real captain’s performance today. Found himself in the centre of the controversy at the end of today’s game which he didn’t deserve. Like Ashley, was solid throughout. Commands the back three
Harry Marlow (centre-mid) - may have had one of his quietest games going forward, but was a key component of a solid midfield that found themselves in a brilliant battle with the Galaxy midfield. Fouled countless times which says a lot about how difficult Galaxy found him to manage
---------------
FC TEAM
James Harpin (NWL Bears) – Kept their team in it with a fine string of saves
Adam Rones (centre-mid) – solid performance goal and assist
Craig Sandford (midfield) – strong
Dave Grossman (midfield) – did not put a foot wrong
---------------
PARIS SAINT-JEWMAIN
Louis Relevy (CDM) - MOTM - dubbed the Jewish Kante, Louis was everywhere, winning every ball and covered every inch of grass today. In addition, he got himself on the scoresheet, getting his first goal in PSJ colours
Joni Hirschowitz (goalkeeper) - was immense in goal, playing an pivotal role in the victory over Club De Chigwell
---------------
FAITHFOLD WHITE
Akiva Solomon (LW/RW/CAM) - played on the left, on the right and in the middle. Beat his men over and over, scored, won a penalty, should have had a hat-trick but simply Lions couldn't handle him. MOTM.
Avi Garson (right-wing) - was up and down all game, ran their left back ragged and was defensively superb too
Martin Smulovitch (centre-back) - the old wise head who has the fitness of the youngest of us! Used all his experience to stop all coming his way
Avi Mocton (centre-back) - carrying an injury but played through the pain and brought pain to those facing him!
---------------
HAMPSTEAD DUCKS
- Jono Gaon (striker) - hat-trick hero guided the Ducks to their first win
Daniel Sonn (manager) - made important half-time subs, as well as changes in the last ten minutes that ultimately won the game
---------------
MILL HILL DONS
Jamie Nagioff (goalkeeper) - traditionally a left-back but today volunteered to go in goal. He stepped up to the plate, keeping a clean sheet and looked a natural between the sticks. His distribution throughout was superb and made some good saves when called upon
Joe Reece (right-back) - a clean sheet and two assists in what was a superb performance for Reece. He was extremely solid defensively and even more impressive going forward. He played in three different positions during the game, excelling in all.
Josh Cinna (centre-back) - the birthday boy returned to the side and put in a standard Josh Cinna performance. Completely dominant in the air and was not beaten throughout. He was the one change from last week's game, the defence looked calmer in his presence
Harry Moss (centre-mid) - in his second game back since returning from his ACL tear, he found the scoresheet on two occasions. Despite spending a prolonged period of time on the sidelines, Moss already looks back to his old self. He bossed the midfield battle and covered every blade of grass
---------------
LOS CAMDEN
Jake Saunders (CAM/RW) – was back to his unplayable best today, constantly keeping the team ticking with bravery and creativity on the ball, was the best player on the park today and did not deserve to be the losing side
Johaan Jordi (centre-mid) – the big Frenchman showed glimpses of brilliance again with his tough tackling and excellent passing range
Dudi Edreyi (centre-mid) – is playing his first season for the club and had a very good game today, excellent in possession and strong defensively
Guy Fenton (right-back) – Fents was solid again today, it is virtually impossible to dribble passed him, after Van Djik was dribbled passed he now holds the record in English football
Max Saunders (centre-back) – ever-reliable, had another strong performance today, his fitness, read of play and all-round game was excellent
---------------
NORTH LONDON GALAXY
James Belchak (midfield) - bossed the midfield. Got his assist for Luke Lewis' goal ... when he’s on his game he’s untouchable. Presence in midfield and silky feet - Galaxy’s Viera
