Half a Pint
I noticed that both Fifa+ listings and the National League Twitter page have Auckland City playing a Northern League game at 3pm at Kiwitea Street and then the Champions League final in Honiara at 7pm.

I thought this was just a mistake but then I looked at an ACFC's website and they have a press release from Wednesday saying their match against Western Springs has been moved forward to Saturday the 12th to alleviate fixture congestion? 

So are they actually playing 2 matches on Saturday and therefore fielding a reserve team for their Northern League game?
Yes it's pretty wild. But with this comp and club world cup I'm guessing there were only so many spots for make-up games?

If any ACFC might not mind their first teamers playing a game less and also getting the chance to add to those U20s minutes.

Not sure Springs table rivals will appreciate it so much.
