Lion's la Bamba to victory



Go Leo lifted the Champions League trophy today for the first time, scoring three times in the first half to beat Addy FC 3-1 in the final. Despite being tied 1-1 at one point, in reality, it was a procession-like final.

Addy was never really in the match and it was one way traffic the moment Matias Bamba, restored to the starting eleven for the final, connected with a Matias Madrid corner in the tenth minute. Go Leo then proceeded to break down Addy with two more goals after conceding an equalizer.

Jamie Campell restored their lead with a screamer in the 20th minute and Tim van Rooijen polished off the win with a header ten minutes later.

Addy simply never showed up for the final and mustered only 45% of the possesion and although they had six shots on target, none were able to worry Go Leo.

The Boss opted to give starts to Bamba and Campbell, two players who have been dropped in recent matches while the number one jersey was given to Eladio de Spiegeleer. Previous first choice Ayila Fortunate paid the price for recent blunders in high-profile matches.

While Bamba was named as Man of the Match, star winger and captain Madrid was the catalyst for the win and provided two assist to help his club add the Champions' League title to their trophy cabinet.


The Boss claims that Madrid deserves all the plaudits, "Matias has been sensational since he came to the club. I think it is appropriate that he was the one who delivered the Champions' League to us."

"He saved us in the semifinals and got us here. This is his stage."
