We started off on the right foot today, earning a much-needed 1-nil victory in the CL. Daniel Bilali took over the team lead by scoring his 5th in all competitions to open the scoring, and assisted on Aron Johannsson's 87th minute goal that gave us the victory. However, it was Danny Califf who was MOTM, as our defense held them to only 5 shots on target and a mere 2 corners. We stay in 3rd place in the Group, but are only 1 point off of 2nd.

Howard, Beasley, Califf, Grella, Johnson, Bjørge (Donné 68'), Frost, Gomez, Nogueira (Jóhannsson 77'), Green, Bilali

The League match wasn't nearly as positive, as we fell, 3-1. We were behind 3-nil just after the interval, and even though we were a man up for the last 35 minutes, we failed to generate much offense. Garath McCleary hit on his 5th goal of the season to get us on the score sheet, but that was it. He's now tied for 3rd in the league with two others on 6 goals. Academy product Fabián Short made his Chargers debut. The result sees us in 10th place and a date with another lineup full of 6* tomorrow.
