Shanghai Lions Football Club

Lions one step closer !

Lions,

In most countries the title races are over but here in Shanghai we are still
in the race ! Last Saturday we played versus the Krauts who currently are at
the bottom of the SIFL. There are plenty of examples of title contenders
slipping up versus the bottom teams so we were warned from the beginning.
The Krauts struggling this season to get full squads and this time they
barely managed to get a squad. It was hard to stay focused and motivated
against a team like that but we managed to do it. The first half it was 5-0
for the Lions and the second half we played better football and managed to
score a few great goals ! It was good to see Fabie back after a long injury
and he kept the tradition of defenders scoring goals this season alive with
two goals scored by him ! In the end the score line was 10-0 and with DIB
beating Metro only 9-1 we added two goals on to our goal difference
advantage which now stands at +11 vs DIB who have three games to play.
For us we have two games left and next up are United (Beavers) this Saturday
a must win game for us !

On Sunday we will play Gremio at SRFC an important game as well as although
we are the SPL Champions already we like to end the season unbeaten !

We expect all Lions to come to the training and stay focused to finish the
job !

These are great times for the Lions and we hope that all family and friends
come out to give us support by watching our games !

Go Lions Go !

Cheers Freek
