This was a difficult fixture this season and a very important for us to win this game seeing that les guerriers have opened up at 7-0-0 and held a 8 point advantage over us going into this tricky away game, anything other than a July Fourth would see us lose more valuable ground in the title race and hand les guerriers and excellent chance of winning the league, Orange Machine did take an early lead from a Jolly corner to Navarrete to header in but July Fourth prompty replied when Papaleo crossed in for Beckett to get our equaliser then Orange Machine kept giving away free-kicks and Beckett kept on just wasting them all, But it was soon going to be a matter of time until Beckett converted one of the free-kicks for us to grab the lead, Both teams went onto search for another goal that could of grabbed Orange Machine a valuable point or July Fourth to get another goal to kill this, Petersen had a great chance but couldn't keep it on target, meanwhile a late Orange Machine attack through Jolly was well defended by Ramirez.

Goals: Navarette (15) Beckett (20,56) MOTM: Beckett.

Team Talk: Delighted to have won this close encounter, on another day this game quite easily could of been a different result and we keep in touch with les guerriers by moving up into 2nd place, 5 points behind.
