Rush One
The Greenbay Packrats act first with the MVP Nightshade running into the red zone alley to snatch up the ball. The Z'zor striker no.2 Mendeleev looks on as Nightshade fumbles the ball and it scatters in to the yellow/purple score zone behind him. He won't be happy with that.

The robot continues his rampage and slams Nightshade who uses his dirty tricks to get the referee to send off the Nameless striker no.5 Scuttle Scuttle for two rounds.

The Cheatyface Crew open up their sub's bench door and a zee comes on to the pitch, followed by another , sorry make that two others, no wait one, two, three, four, oh my! That's six more Zee players have sneaked on to the pitch. Attention turns to the Refbot, who it seems hasn't noticed any sneak foul. The Cheatyface Crew players seem to have created a wall to block off their scoring zones, it's "Zee wall"
