Season 4 – The Pocket Dawgs vs Arbor Red

The Pocket Dawgs

Arbor Red

A fascinating contest between two teams who have forced their way up to 12 points after poor starts met its promise, but this was Messi’s game first and foremost. Though the visitors laid siege to Oblak with 30 shots, Conte’s men were deadly on the counter, none more so than the Argentine, who swapped assists with Jovic before pushing himself into the lead on the golden boot with two second-half strikes, the latter a penalty. Perisic struck twice for Arbor Red – albeit one with a huge assist from an inexplicable Bellerin blunder – but quality in the final third told massively here in favour of the Dawgs.
