A top 4 clash between two of the best goal - scoring teams, Kerberos, who currently sit in 5th place, are facing 3rd place London. As expected, "no changes" from the home team after their last game as Kerberos lined up in their regular 4-2-4 with Jethro behind Bas Kurt, Dani Optic and Bai Chao in attack. On the other side, London starts in a 4-3-3.
Very early in the first half, Kerberos opens the scoring with a fantastic counter-attack during the 3rd minute, Scott Jaydeepee sends a long ball with pinpoint accuracy to Jethro, the Kerberos captain shows his quality with chest control and quickly passes the ball to Bai Chao who easily finished the goal 1v1 against Pierre Toilét, as the former Amsterdam striker was standing unmarked inside the London penalty area.
Kerberos started another flawless counter-attack during the 27th minute and the London defence started panicking as they couldn't handle the pressure from Kerberos. After an awful clearance from Michael Jr, Bas Kurt finds Dani Optic and sends a chip long ball over the London backline. Danny scores a half volley in the top right corner to make it 2-0 for Kerberos.
London gets one goal back late in the game during the 79th minute, Pratham Li makes a darting run from the left flank and sends a through ball to Ray Peest in the centre. The Scottish attacking midfielder flicks the ball in the air and scores a banger in the top left corner. Another upset for London as they couldn't score a second goal past in-form Kerberos goalkeeper Midas Hepatitis.
