The group stage of the 2016 CONIFA World Football Cup continued on Monday, with four exciting games across two cities. Check out our full match wraps below.<\/p>\n

Padania 6 \u2013 0 Raetia, Gagra<\/em>
\nPadania recovered from their opening game loss to Northern Cyprus with a dominant performance over Raetia in Gagra. The team from northern Italy were impressive throughout, showing great attacking prowess with several stunning goals.<\/p>\n

Raetia were stoic in defence early, holding out considerable pressure from Padania. But a goal in the 24th minute opened the flood gates, with Padania finding the net again before half-time and then adding to the scoreboard four times following the break.<\/p>\n

United Koreans of Japan 1 \u2013 0 Sz\u00e9kely Land, Sukhum<\/em>
\nThe United Koreans of Japan commenced their World Football Cup campaign with a hard-fought win over\u00a0Sz\u00e9kely Land in Sukhum. FC Korea striker Lee Seon Cheol scored the game\u2019s sole goal in the 60th minute, before a strong defensive effort from his team sealed the result.<\/p>\n

Cheol, who was playing in his first-game following a lengthy absence through injury, was pleased with the performance. \u201cWe played with speed and spirit today, which is very important for the United Koreans of Japan,\u201d he said. \u201cWe are happy with the win, but our next game over Kurdistan will be tough.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sapmi 0 \u2013 1 Panjab, Gagra<\/em>
\nPanjab recorded a surprise result over tournament heavyweights Sapmi, an early goal from\u00a0Kidderminster Harriers striker Gurjit Singh proving the difference in an evenly-matched affair in Gagra.<\/p>\n

Playing in front of the beautiful Caucasus mountain range, both teams had several chances but Sapmi were unable to match Singh\u2019s 8th minute goal.<\/p>\n

Western Armenia 12 \u2013 0 Chagos Islands, Sukhum<\/em>
\nWestern Armenia produced a comprehensive victory over the Chagos Islands in Monday\u2019s final game, scoring 12 goals against the determined Chagossians.<\/p>\n

Western Armenia coach Vahe Yaghmuryan was enthused by his team\u2019s performance: \u201cVery good,\u201d he exclaimed following the game with the assistance of a translator. \u201cWe played well and now must prepare for our important game against Abkhazia.\u201d<\/p>\n
