What a game this was. Sly FC fought and pushed us all the way and almost beat us but we came back to win on an incredible evening in the CL. Pistov got us the all important away goal from a corner and we led 0-1. Shehu equalised before half time, also from a corner. We were dominating the first half but it was going to be one of those games where our opponents got all the luck. In the 2nd half we changed to a 3-5-2v and it seemed to be good and bad. Hardy made it 1-2 from an indirect free kick, heading in from Petersen's cross. But Sly FC were not beaten and a goal from a corner from Dulev gave Sly their 2nd goal and making it 2-2. They then went in front from a long range Griffin strike and we were in for a shock result. However we quickly responded and Pistov made it 3-3 from a 1 vs 1 position and then we pulled out in front, Nascimento making it 3-4 with his own long range strike. We had chances at the end for 3-5 and Sly FC looked like a beaten team, they didn't threaten us any more and we held on for the win.

Goals: Pistov (6', 68'), Shehu (40'), Hardy (54'), Dulev (57'), Griffin (66'), Nascimento (78')
MOTM: Nacsimento
Well you were always in control really with the 3-0 lead you had. I need a brilliant performance this evening in my 2nd leg tonight. But I don't know if I can withstand a battle similar to this.
