The league title race took another dramatic turn... and once again it was against us, with both our rivals winning earlier on and Mehmet moving 5 points clear of us this morning and Takis moving to a point behind. We knew what we needed to do today and thats win just to maintain status quo, with what went on in the first half and the way we were playing you would think July Fourth were going to win the game, After an early goal from Miku and Papaleo and Michu causing problems to the steaua defence and a Papaleo cross into onto Novotny to score just before half-time put us in a comfortable position at half-time. It only takes 2 chances for the home side to get back in the game and with July Fourth still calling the shots early on in the second, soon the home side found a way back into the game by Okoua from nowhere. All of a sudden the game changed and things didn't feel normal and all you could sense is an equaliser from the home team... It came on 85 minutes when Chara beat the defender and his shot bent it past Seaman.

All of a sudden... We find ourselves 4 points behind Mehmet who started 7-0-0 and only 2 points ahead of Takis who we consider dangerous in the title race. This is nothing but another huge disappointment as we simply switched off towards the end of the game thinking the games won.

Goals: Miku (7) Novotny (44) Okoua (65) Chara (85) MOTM: Miku.
