HT 0-0

Interesting: apparently the owner of Guizhou bussed in a rent-a-crowd from the local university and kitted them out in shirts and scarves. Definitely seems like there are more of them than CCM fans.

 Bojic has curled one in early on in the 2nd half. Very dodgy keeping.

Ludicrous own goal. McDonkey should be rendered down for glue after missing an open goal from two yards that would've put CCM 2-0 ahead.

2-1 to Mariners, Sainsbury header from a Wee Mac cross according to twitter.

Didn't see the game tonight, but he has been doing that a lot recently. Start of the season he was putting away all his chances but now seem to be reverting to his normal level. It has cost CCM a couple games.

 Duke slots a penalty for CCM. Was a bit soft and Duke was very lucky, slotted it under the diving keeper.

Lost 2-1 in the end, gave up two goals in the last 5 minutes of the game.

That's is what he'll complaining about, having to play a weak squad in one of the two competitions (ACL and finals) because they happen at the same time.

he didnt have to play a weak squad.

Most professional players are capable of playing twice a week

Another reason why we need FIFA windows, would extend the season a couple more weeks to give the finals series a clear window.

This. Teams such as Man U, Marca and Chelsea do still rotate a number of players through the starting XI during busy periods as CCM have done, but the quality of those squads is so high that it's harder to call the XI a "weak" team.

There is no reason for our professionals not to be as fit as anyone else. It would be rather a lack of quality. It is a lot easier to get fit than it is to have quality.

CCM pumped 3-0 but Guizou can't find a winner to pip them at the post.

Well done, Mariners, into the last 16.

First free kick after 17 minutes. Don't often see that.

Can't see CCM holding them out with these tactics.
