Nice work from Alison Giovannetti and Matt Pritchard who got this one spot-on. They collect 7 points while 23 others score 2 and the other 113 leave empty-handed. Alison, in 13th before the match, was the highest placed to score any points at all so the top 10 is as it was before kick-off, except for Alison gatecrashing at 6th.

BELGIUM 0 IRAN 0
One manager predicted this one - bottom of the league Paul Willingham. 8 points gets The Shockers out of the negatives and onto a grand total of zero. Three randoms also came in, while 14 teams pick up 2 points for the draw by the wrong score. Not a lot of points around today so far then. Of most significance is Roisin Guargena's 2 points, having this one at 1-1. Roisin goes 2 points closer to Neil Mullen on top - the gap is now 3 points.
