Shocker as Rockers beat Town

Mid-table Manchester Rockers ripped up the form book when claimed a surprising 1-0 victory over title-chasing London Town.

Manchester's new French striker Christophe Minardi, a signing from AS Essonne, scored his first goal as time ran out.

Town had dominated most of the play, but great defending plus the goalkeeping of Ed Wilson had served the Rockers well.

And the home side got their reward when Juanpa allowed Minardi space to run into and the Gallic hitman beat Marco Schuipers unchallenged.

Goals
Manchester Rockers: Minardi 89'.
London Town: none.
