It was a day of fixed fortunes as we progressed in the Champions League but lost ground in the league.
In the Champions League, we were able to handle Bao An FC with ease, winning the 2nd leg 2-0 at home courtesy of Ibanez's double and advancing into the quarter finals with a 5-0 aggregate. Ali and Ekinci were given starts while Leipold has made himself indispensable at left back.
In the league, we fell to Rodoguerra FC at home, losing by a solitary goal as we failed to score despite 58% possession and 23 shots at goal. It was a rare match where key players such as Ibanez, Ma and Adeso all failed to fire though Leipold continued to excel and impress with his unrelenting consistency. We understand that we are in an ultra competitive league as i described that "the top 8 teams can all beat each other on their day" so the team which can scrape through with the least losses will be the one which will win this league and deservedly so.
