Thursday. Day 5.

LEAGUE: Round 3. SHILENO FC (71.8) v LONDON CITY (71.1)

Result: SHILENO 1-2 LONDON
Goals: Brown 45, Brown 71, Florez 84
M.o.M: Oleg Yashin

Excellent win for City, against the strongest team in the league. Jake Brown headed home a corner from Andreas Costa, right on the halftime whistle, to open the scoring. Brown scored a second, midway through the second period, when he blasted home, following a precise pass from Oleg Yashin. It seemed as if this would be the final outcome, but things changed on eighty four minutes, when striker Percy Robins was sent off for his second bookable offence. Within a minute, Luis Florez had pulled a goal back, but we survived the final few minutes without further mishap.

CHAMPS LEAGUE: Round 2. ERCAN FC (64.9) v LONDON CITY (71.3)

Result: ERCAN 1-4 LONDON
Goals: Andersson 26, Andersson 40, Duggan 49, Duggan 72, Petrovic 85
M.o.M: Andreas Costa

Our second group H match produced our 2nd win, against the team which could be our biggest danger. Stig Andersson scored twice in the first half, the first a great solo effort, and the second, a header from a long cross from Andreas Costa. Terry Duggan bagged our third just into the second half, to virtually kill off our opponents. Duggan got his own second and our fourth, with just under twenty minutes to play. Ercan got a consolation near the end through Philip Petrovic.


TEAM TALK.

Today's important league win, keeps us at 100% and joint top with Minh Chi. Tomorrow we play at home to our big rivals, Pto Alcudia, who are on 6 points.
Our win in the Champions League, puts us on top of the group, three points ahead of 2nd & 3rd, with now, back-to-back games against the bottom team who have a goal difference of 0-9.

We hope to be able to announce the arrival of two new wide players tomorrow. Both are at the club, but have yet to sign contracts.
