Shenzhen International Amateur Football League (SIAFL)

Summary: The SIAFL is Shenzhen's top amateur football league for the international community to play in, and has been around for 13 years now featuring many players that have played at competitive levels before. A dramatic GW8 reshuffled the top of the table! SZ Panthers stormed to the summit with another emphatic display, hammering SZ Dragons 12-5 to make it five unbeaten and sit top on 20 points. The result of the week, though, was Monster FC's stunning 4-1 upset of previously-flying SZ Athletic, a defeat that knocks the high-scoring side down to 2nd despite their league-best 66 goals. There was a shock at the bottom too, as Futura were held to a 3-3 draw by bottom side Brown Bears, while Tigers F.C. got another win, a 2-0 clean sheet over SZ United.

It was a result that suited them to take points against their closest rival on the road.
