London Knights Wins Against Holambra Dutch, Grabs 8th Place
A primetime rally on Monday Night Football (49.00 points, 38% of their total score) wasn’t enough for Holambra Dutch, as London Knights earned the 144.44 to 130.56 victory. The late-match efforts were impressive, considering their pregame projections only called for 23.57 points on Monday night.

London Knights (2-2, 419.86 points) climbs into eighth place, while Holambra Dutch (1-3, 447.04 points) steps into 11th place.
A spot where Holambra Dutch really made a regrettable decision is WR. Jordan Addison could have started in place of Zay Flowers, and that point difference would’ve swayed the outcome.
In addition to the fantasy W, London Knights was savvy enough to select winners in real life, as well. Among all of their starters, Pat Freiermuth was the only one whose NFL team lost in Week 4.
Next week, London Knights plays Limeira Jetsons (3-1, 460.98), while Holambra Dutch goes up against Indaiatuba Riders (0-4, 370.70).
