Vienna show Athens how real Cerberus looks like

After beating London in an away comeback, Vienna was going to take on another Top-4 team - LP Kerberos. Zagreb had just beaten London and sat on the top of the group with 9 pts, so a home victory against the Greek team was a necessity for Vienna. The match began unlucky for title holders: Bas Kurt managed to score a one-touch volley right on the 4th minute. The Turkish forward took advantage of the free kick performed by Aaron Hugues, who added an assist to his resume. For the third time in the new season Vienna's undefeated streak was put in danger, but in every match the Blues had managed to restore the balance. So 0-1 score at halftime wasn't a verdict yet. The second half started with a possession fight in midfield, eventually won by Bradley Keetch's high-class ball control. As in matches with London and Paris, Vienna conceded first, but didn't let opponents capitalize on it. The score became 1-1, which was ok for Kontinental to continue the streak, but not enough to keep their league lead. On the last twenty minutes Vienna suddenly woke up and got back to their daily work. Max Jaxon made an assist for Hoffman, who headed a goal down without any chances for the goalkeeper. On the 83rd minute Gavin Boyo utilized Kerberos' mistake and nailed a third into Athenian coffin. The match ended 3-1, and Vienna added another three points to their tally. It seemed that VK got used to conceding one goal in every match. But as far as they got goal scorers like Keetch, Hoffman and Bogo, the situation remains under their control.
