Oh, soccer's happening again? It feels like it's been two months since we played our last game. What even happened in that one? Oh, yeah, we took down Berlin and Son Heung-Min scored a hat trick. It feels wrong to ignore that, so he gets the double feature. As a bonus, we're bringing back our primary uniforms for the first time since we last featured him all the way back in the season opener. As much as we love wearing periwinkle, it's always nice to be back in maroon and white. CD Andes makes the long trip to Camp Vell for a battle of mountain-climbing mammals.

Hello everyone! I hope you all are enjoying the return of soccer after a short break. I happen to have a gift for you all! Over the past couple months I have been painstakingly recreating all of our AltLiga uniforms and now I have the results of that hard work to share. So, I present to you all the week 5 matchups of AltLiga! I'm going to try to do these for each gameweek but there are no promises as I am a busy college student. I make the assumption that the home team is wearing their primary kit and that the away team will default to their primary kit unless it clashes. If you have plans otherwise, you have to let me know ahead of time. Notable this week is that every team is in their primary kits except Sydney Harbour, who don their bright yellow kits against Tokyo.

We actually had a win that wasn't because of a fluke! Joburg didn't finish in the bottom for scoring in the week, getting in the upper half while St. Mungo could barely muster any sort of offense. The typical playmakers in Odegaard, Ward-Prowse, and Watkins all contributed well, and defender Gabriel Magalhaes finally showed what he can do on the pitch, playing all 90 minutes for the first time. We'll travel down the Chunnel to take on Olympique, who are also looking to build some momentum on the year after a loss to Berlin. We'll be wearing our clash kits for the first time as we attempt to turn around our awful start to the year. #StayGold

And that was a tough loss. We're starting to get healthier, and our defense should become stronger as they return to form, so we move on to England, as we head to London to face London Public FC. We look to climb back above .500 in this one and start moving away from mediocrity. We're going to wear the main kits for this one, and have highlighted defenseman Dan Burn for this one. #TheGoldStandard

And that was a good win. Atlético knocked off Eye to move to 5-1 on the year, and we finish off our homestand this week against Tokyo. Sakura are coming off a strong win of their own, and will certainly be hungry for more. Our top player last week was a brand new face, as midfielder Sean Longstaff picked up a goal and an assist to make a great first impression in his first start with the team (that and his last name is very easy to make jokes about).
