Result: MAHMOUD 2-1 LONDON
Goals: Amodu 10, Barrera 49, Costa 68
M.o.M: Murtala Amodu (Mahmoud)
Our tough season fizzled out with this defeat. We went into the game needing to win to have any chance of finishing fourth and qualifying for the CL. As it happens, we will now only have the league and cup to play for next time.
Murtala Amodu broke our spirits after just ten minutes by firing our hosts ahead. The score remained at this until early in the second half, until Manuel Barrera doubled Mahmoud's lead. We now only had pride to play for After 68 minutes, defender Andreas Costa (playing his final game for us), halved the defecit, but we couldn't fashion any more goals. We also lost Emilio Santos with a hamstring injury, meaning he will miss the start of next season.
CITY: Miklosko, Costa, Fiksdal, Whyte, Watts, Olsen, Hori, Santos (Leth), Daniels, Yashin, Robins.
TEAM TALK:
We have started team rebuilding for next season. Australian, 7* striker Jacob Richardson has joined the club. But we have sold DL/DC Andreas Costa, striker Mads Leth and MC Adam Zola, along with the two new youth players.
So next season, our fixture list will be pretty sparse and it will all depend how we start in the cup. And we also hope that despite being promoted, we can stay in the same level league with managers of a similar status.
