Saturday / Sunday. Matchdays 21/22

LEAGUE. Round 19

Result: SC AIR BEL 0-3 LONDON CITY
Goals: Yashin 27, Kennedy 68, Canning 73
M.o.M: Dave Kennedy

City managed a win, despite not playing well and conceeding a lot of possession to the opposition. Oleg Yashin scored the only goal of the first half, when he headed in an Andreas Costa corner. Midway through the second period, Dave Kennedy scored direct from a free-kick. Five minutes later, Kyle Canning slotted home after another pin-point pass from Costa. We still languish in 4th spot though.


CHAMPS LEAGUE. Quarter-final, 2nd Leg.

Result: FC POTE 2-1 LONDON CITY
Goals: Hoegee 51, Portinho 56, Criban 65
M.o.M: Michael Sejdovic (FCP)

We were dumped out of the CL after this defeat against an inferior side. Starting the match level at 2-2, we just couldn't break through a massed defence. Two goals in the space of five minutes, from Tim Hoegee and Pepe "killer" Portinho, put the home side clear, and although Yonni Criban pulled one back, soon after, we just couldn't find an equaliser that would have sent the game into extra time. So its now just the league left to concentrate on.


LEAGUE. Round 20.

Result: LONDON CITY 1-0 MISON FC
Goal: Costa 13
M.o.M: Clayton Manning

This was a tense affair and we just about deserved the win, against the league leaders. The only goal came early on when two of our defenders, Clayton Manning crossing for Andreas Costa to head home. After that, it was nip and tuck until the final whistle. The result means that we've done the double over Mison, but we still remain 4th, only now just 2 points off top spot.

Balkan Boyz entered the 1th leg of the CUP semi-finals with high expectations. But was left empty-handed after Daniel Harding’s goal in stoppage time to 3-4, ending the Balkan Boyz dreams and hopes to get a descent result before Tuesday return.

Balkan Boyz was about a minute shy from a draw that it needed and a descent starting position before Tuesday´s return playing Orchard Utd away in the 2nd leg of the CUP semi-finals. The Orchard Utd striker Daniel Harding showed no mercy when he smashed the 4th goal past Balkan Boyz GK Asmir Begović in additional time, a goal which gave his team a crucial win and Balkan Boyz a hard task to overcome.

Manager -Ljepoje- was left bitterly disappointed after his side conceded a late goal in additional time, which could cost them a final spot in the CUP finals. In a short post-game interview he said "We didn't start the 1th half at the best, but we did better in the second half. We stood up and played, managed to put them under pressure and created more. Our better players had the ball and we played football, but we couldn´t get past their defence on their GK at that matter". He continued and said "Now we have to concentrate on the reutrn game, but it will be a difficult task since we need to go to "YMWA" and score at least two goals to have a slightly chance to reach the finals". He continued, "I know that it isn't quite impossible since we managed to pull it off against "Villa" in the quarter-finals, but this time we face a slightly better opposition who tends to play similar to us and with that in mind it could end otherwise".
