Wednesday 30th April - CSA Champions League Semi-Final 2nd Leg
T-Mobile Stadium, London
FC London win 3-2 on aggregate
FC London set up an all-London Champions League final with London United after the Superhoops 2-1 aggregate win against Barnsworth.
James Douglas scored an early penalty to make it 1-0 after Karlo Krzystofski was hauled down by Dan Perry. But Adam Carter equalized with sharp finish.
Late in stoppage time, the Blues defended like their lives depended on it. Bradley Hatfield shot at goal was slapped out by the Barnsworth keeper, Krzystofski rebounded - blocked by Perry but then..... the ball found its way into the back of the net. The scorer was Craig Wisniewski and the Superhoops fans bounced for joy as they made it to their third consecutive Champions League Final - looking for their third consecutive championship.
