Salyer did the start with Werder Bremen Amateure defeating Hamburger SV Amateure 3-2 yesterday evening. Until now no source reveals whether he played this time.

In the south the US trio Payne, Lawson and Mason (Elversberg) expects 1.FC Kaiserslautern Amateure at 2.30 today.

Borussia Neunkirchen (Shoffner) travel to FC Augsburg at the same time.

Matarazzo and Phillips are guests with SV Wehen in Darmstadt, also at 2.30 today.

Tom Dooley's 1.FC Saarbrücken tries to defend the top position tomorrow at 3 pm vs VfR Aalen.

I saw a bit of the Neunkirchen game - if you want to make secure money: bet on them relegating this year. I've never seen a team as bad as they are in a 3rd division.

Osnabrück plays tomorrow at the mentioned time, the wrong day was a mistake of kicker.

I just saw excerpts of Elversberg's game. Payne had no chance at both goals, but looked bad in two other situations. First he got a pass back from a defender and was put under pressure. He tried to solve the situation, but played the ball to a KL forward at the box; he was very lucky to get a chance and save the ball. Later on he looked bad positioned when a ball hit the bar. Mason's only scene they showed was when he hesitated too long and wasted a good chance on a counter attack.

Almost correct, but Shoffner went full 90 in the half-left midfield.

Matarazzo was central defender again, but this time they turned from three-defender-chain to a system with sweeper.

I swear Shoffner wasn't in the box score yesterday.
