Day 16/17.
LEAGUE: Round 14. LONDON CITY (84.7) v STANDARD FC (84.7)
Result: LONDON 0-0 STANDARD
Goals:
M.o.M: Jaime Suarez (Standard)
Not a lot can be said about this bore-draw, between two teams with exactly identical quality ratings. Neither side really troubled the opposing 'keeper and goalscoring chances were at a minimum. An ACL tear forced star midfielder, Emilio Santos, to leave the field after 26 minutes and he will be missing now for 5 days.
CITY: Miklosko, Jones, Haller, Watts, Rabus, Andersson, Santos (Duggan), Simpson, Daniels, Yashin, Dixon.
LEAGUE: Round 15. SHILENO FC (81.2) v LONDON CITY (84.8)
Result: SHILENO 1-5 LONDON
Goals: Dixon 15, Andersson 19, Kokkinakis 45, Dixon 51, Dixon 73, Robins 87
M.o.M: Wayne Dixon
Wayne Dixon led our team to our best result of the season in this comfortable victory in Chile. With both the top two teams losing today, this couldn't have come at a better time for us. Dixon got us off to a good start, after accepting a through ball from skipper Terry Duggan, and sliding it past the keeper. Four minutes later, Stig Andersson doubled our lead when he blasted a free kick home. Nikos Kokkinakis pulled one back just as the referee was about to blow for the interval. Six minutes into the restart, Dixon made space for himself and scored with ease to restore our two goal margin. Dixon completed his hat-trick on the 73rd minute mark, and substitute Percy Robins finished the scoring with a late goal, to wrap up the three points. Reserve striker, Oleg Yashin sustained an ankle injury just after the hour, which sidelines him for 3 days.
CITY: Miklosko, Jones, Fiksdal, Whyte, Watts, Andersson, Duggan, Simpson, Daniels, Yashin (Robins), Dixon.
