The Great Lions of Turkey go all blazzing. While the canaries are firing blanks



6th August 2009, The great lions take front row seats in front of "The Diamonds" of Israel holding a 4-1 from the 1st leg. Frank Rijkaard didn't have to put a strong 11 on the pitch, so gave fringe players a chance to shine and prove themselves. AND two players did just that. Shabani Nonda & Aydin Yilmaz...Both with hat-tricks in different ways. Yilmaz with a hat-trick of assists and Nonda with a hat-trick of goals.

Galatasaray: Leo Franco, Uğur, Emre Güngör, Emre Aşık, Hakan Balta, Barış Ozbek, Tobias Linderoth (Dk. 61 Ayhan Akman ), Aydın Yilmaz, Arda Turan (Dk. 74 Serdar Eyilik ), Abdul Keita (Dk. 46 Harry Kewell ), Shabani Nonda

Goals from Baris Ozbek on the 2' And 51' min.
Goal from Abdul Keita on the 5' min. (Keita scores his 300th goal for Europe)
And a Hat-trick by Shabani Nonda on the 56', 60' & 90+1' min.

With a 6-0 win over NETANYA, CiMBOM make record after how many years, since there last big score over a European team.

With the next team to be picked today..the two pots are as follows;

GRUP 2 - SERİ BAŞI OLAN TAKIMLAR

GRUP 2 - SERİ BAŞI OLMAYAN TAKIM
