Lions look down and out

Go Leo salvaged a 1-1 draw at Xaitan this evening with Muhammed Ozen equalizing seven minutes from time to cancel out the home team's first half goal.

The result leaves Leo a point behind both Xaitan & Ude after they also failed to win against Ude at Lion's Way in the previous match, losing 2-3 after taking a 2-1 lead. Both matches highlighted poor defending from the Go Leo and also some shocking finishing from mid-season transfer Stephen Devine & the normally reliable Sebastien Djidji.

The Boss described the past two days as 'disappointing' as Go Leo face yet another trophy-less campaign.

"We are just a point behind Ude and Xaitan but we need a miracle to overtake them. Destiny is not in our hands. We imploded yesterday and today we are left to pick up the pieces."

Go Leo has been consistent title challengers for the past 3 season but have yet to win the league. They finished in the top 3 in the last two season and another third place finished is on the cards unless both Ude & Xaitan drop points against teams languishing in the bottom half of the league.

"To win the league, you need to beat your closest rivals. And we did not manage to do that this season and last. We have only picked up 5 points from a possible 18 points."
