Lions start 2013/2014 SPL season with a solid win
The new Shanghai Premier League [SPL] season officially kicked off last Sunday 01st of September, 2013. Great weather and a great pitch all the right conditions for a great game. The Lions welcomed some new players and Super 48 was a good opponent to get back in to shape. The first half we created numerous chances which was positive but we failed to finish them which was something to improve. 1-0 half time by a debut goal of Big John, not surprisingly from a corner and the second half we showed them who the Lions really are and scored another 8! Three from Joel, Azz, Romain, Ben, Adam 2 (should have been 8 for him). Thomas felt sorry for the Japanese and gave them a goal back claiming that his gloves were too slippery! After the game we watch Gremio beat Japan 5-3 and enjoyed the beer and cheese beef on the field!
