M.o.M: Oleg Yashin
This was the first of two tough league games in two days. Our visitors were lying 4th, but with the strongest quality team in the league. Oleg Yashin got us off to a dream start, with two goals in the first 8 minutes. The score remained at 2-0 until the second half. Percy Robins made it three, ten minutes after the break, Near the end, Stig Andersson struck number four from a free kick, and Yashin completed his hat-trick with time running out. The win, coupled with other results, means we are now top and clear by 3 points from Alcudia, whom we play tomorrow.

TEAM TALK:
It has been a good day for us. Starting with a 1 point lead at the top and playing the strongest team in the league, we were fearing the worst. However, our surprising 5-0 win, put us in good spirits, and we knew that we'd still be top tonight. We hadn't reckoned on our rivals all dropping points though, so with our own 3 points, and 2nd, 3rd and 4th only getting 1 point between them, our lead is looking much healthier.
Tomorrow we play away to our nearest rivals, Alcudia, and we are hoping to avenge our only defeat in the league so far, although a draw would be acceptable.
