Unreal Madrid pulled off the shock of the tournament so far as they saw off Manor Old Boys 5-0 in Week five of the Bracknell Forest Standard Summer League.

Unreal Madrid, who hadn’t registered a single point in their first three games, beat the title challengers and former league leaders with relative ease in the driving rain at Edgbarrow.

Luke Whitethorn added another two goals to his tally for the season, Tim Bovingdon matched that with a brace of his own, while a further goal from Tom Churchill-Cooper finished off the scoring.

Bracknell Boys also lost their 100-per-cent record as they were beaten 2-0 by an impressive 3M FC.

Mark Tyler gave 3M a first-half lead, and then bravely headed home from distance to seal the victory late in the second.

Those two goals took Tyler to six for the season, leaving him joint third in the top goalscorers chart.

Victorious Secret took a step closer towards the title with a hard-fought 3-2 win over Keltar Vigo.

The new league leaders went 2-0 up at the break thanks to cracking goals from Ed Carpenter and Patrick Anderson.

Keltar fought back, but with the impressive James Fellows in the Victorious goal seemingly unbeatable, they just couldn’t make a breakthrough and Sven Hovden took advantage to make it 3-0.

Stuart Clapson managed two late goals to give Keltar a glimmer of hope, but it was too little too late.

FC Royals made it two wins in a row as they beat plucky basement side The Imps.

Imps are still chasing that elusive first win, but Royals proved too strong as they took the three points.

Tom Whitfield put Royals ahead in the first half with a great strike and then Tom Fraser made the game safe as he scored after the break.
