Besiktas bust our clean sheet run 1 league game short of our club record with a corner from Marco Van Basten to find Elexander Phillips head which hit the back of our goal net to give Besiktas the lead in the 13th minute, Well we are not going to do mission impossible after all but our aim is still 26-0-0 in the league, We replied and responed very well to this... We got a corner ourselves and Novotny found the in-form Kevin Mensah to leap up and head home the equaliser, Alex Zidane then shot hard and low to beat the keeper to give us the lead, L.McNamara got forward just before half-time and squared off the ball to Mensah to score his 7th in the last 3 games he has played, In the second half late on Papaleo put the game to bed with a fine move past the last defender and put the ball our of reach for the keeper then Papaleo set up Tony Adams on edge of the 6 yard box and he tapped it in for 5-1 and a wonderful win for July Fourth.
Sadly... The clean sheet run ends here. but still 26-0-0 is a real possiblity
Goals: Phillips (13) Mensah (21,42) Zidane (29) Papaleo (79) Adams (81) MOTM: Zidane.
