FCFC ended its 2024-2025 season in a respectable second place in Division 1 with a total of 28 points coming from 9 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses. City netted 47 goals this season and conceded 34. City’s departing manager Turtle contributed 19 goals, while Lu Xinzhi mustered 10 assists. In the end, it was not enough to topple Afrika Utd from the first spot. But with the departure of its manager, Turtle, City must look onward to a new season under the tutelage of the ever capable George Sherwood. Can he put together a successful squad? Can he find a player to fill Turtle’s golden boots? These are questions only the new season can answer!
Summer Palace finished toward the bottom of the table, but after a disappointing first half of the season, Palace showed tangible improvement after the winter break. They finished with 14 points, scoring 21 goals, conceding 26 in return. Palace looks to build on its second half of season improvements and find a winning formula for the upcoming season.
CITY AND PALACE’S BEST
Through thick and thin, rough and tumble, blood, sweat and tears who are best of City and Palace for the 2024-2025 season?
City Man of the Season: Remy
The warrior of the back-line, Remy made himself an invaluable part of City’s defense and offense every game.
City Top Scorer: Turtle
Though we like to joke about Turtle’s expected goals and tap-ins for the season, he made a name for himself, scoring second most goals in the league!
Palace Man of the Season: Leon
One of Palace’s newest additions, Leon has made a name for himself on and off the pitch, both for Palace and City. Fashion second to none.
Palace Top Scorer: Anotida
Although betraying the team to join Squirtle FC this season, Anotida worked hard this past season on listening to his peers and made solid steps toward becoming one of Palace’s most solid attackers.
