Friday 16th May - MLF Round 10
Madejski Stadium, Reading, Berkshire
The Reading Ruckus beat the East Anglia Knights 1-0 on Friday Night Football.
After the Reading Football Club's relegation from the Premier League last week, the Ruckus showed why they might be the new talk of the town with attractive, attacking football.
And they were rewarded in the 66th minute when César Escobar threaded a pass for Stefan Shanahan, who made no mistake in firing home.

César Wurns-Herrera legally changes name to César Escobar
The Reading Ruckus and Switzerland CSA footballer is no longer César Wurns-Herrera.
He is now César Escobar.
The 25-year-old dynamite winger legally changed his name in court today - his third name since the start of his career.
He started his MLF career as César Wurns when he played for Newcastle Geordies in 2002. But he later became Wurns-Herrera after he married Spanish popstar singer Valeria Herrera in July 2006.
But César and Valeria divorced earlier this year, and instead of reverting back to Wurns, he adopted the surname of his great grandfather, who originally hails from Colombia.
His full name is now César Andrés Wurns Escobar, but he will continue to wear his first name on the back of his shirt as he has done it the past.
He can also be known as César Wurns Escobar, and people can now nickname him Esco.
You can even say: "ESCOBAR CAESAR HAS RETURNED!!!"

Mighty Mice 1-0 Ruckus
Monday 5th May - MLF Round 8
Triple M Stadium, Kirkby, Merseyside, England
Guenther Hessler scored a contender for Goal of the Season after Merseyside beat the in-form Reading Ruckus one-nil.
German Hessler hit a 40 yard belter over the Chris Kolinski - who was already in his net; you might even say it could be a contender for Howler of the Season for the young England CSA back-up keeper.

Fire 1-0 Ruckus
Saturday 26th April - MLF Round 6
The City Ground, Nottingham
The Nottingham Fire got their first win of the season with a Sebastien Lacroix goal.
Reading Ruckus striker Stefan Shanahan returned back to his old place, where he played from 2000-01 and 2007.
The Fire were looking for their first point of the season after having their worst-ever start losing all five of their first games and under-fire manager Dick Thomas, who only took the hotseat preseason, got three points to keep his job alive.

Ruckus 1-0 Magic
Friday 28th March - MLF First Kick
Madejski Stadium, Reading, Berkshire
César Wurns-Herrera's last-gasp winner was enough for the Reading Ruckus to mark their inaugural MLF game with a win.
The Swiss, 25, collected the ball from a Julio Marconi after the Argentinian played César in with a through-ball.
César then nutmegged the ball under Edward Wilson to send the Madejski Stadium into ecstacy.
There was a lot of razzmatazz before the game, with loud rock music and all 18 MLF team logos carried out on to the pitch as the opening ceremony was one of the best you'll ever see.
The game was the first of a Madejski double header, with Reading Football Club playing their Premier League game with Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.
César gave Andrew 'Cezza' Corne all sorts of problems as he continued the threaten the Magic.
And César got his reward in the stoppage time with a one-niller that the Ruckus thoroughly deserved.

Ruckus complete Zak signing
MLF new boys the Reading Ruckus have snapped up ex-England CSA striker Zak McKracken from MLF International's Tokyo Tornados.
McKracken, 27, has struggled to settle in Japan following his move from Manchester Magic.
And the blond hitman says he felt homesick.
"I'm happy and relieved to back in England," he said. "This is a great challenge for me to play in Reading for the newly-formed Ruckus."
Zak retired from internationals following the 2006 CSA World Cup.
