- The first cycle of matchdays are complete and some of the competition's favorites have asserted themselves as much.
- France/Germany was billed rightfully as the battle of the two last World Cup winners but it was clear Germany was the second best side on the pitch in Munich. The two selected players for this game, Thomas Muller (Matt) and Kai Havertz (Greg) were neutered by the French defense and an own goal ended up doing Die Mannschaft in.
- The remaining picks for the day came scattered across the starting XI for Portugal against Hungary. The Hungarians hung around for longer than expected before Scott's selection of Cristiano Ronaldo scored two late goals, including a penalty, to add nearly two full points to his match rating and take home the day's top score of 8.0.
- Mike pushed his lead over Trevor ahead slightly as a yellow card for Ruben Dias provided the gap between him and Bruno Fernandes in match rating (7.6 to 7.5).
