Match Report Panorama bounced back from last week's defeat with an excellent draw away to champions Warriors FC.

After beating them in the supercup 2 weeks ago, Kelly was aware that Warriors would not underestimate his team, and started with a 4-4-2, trying to control the game and slow Warriors down.

The strategy worked for a while but on the first defensive mistake, Warriors took the lead. Few minutes later they had a chance to score the 2-0, but a miracle by Jeanes on a 1-on-1 chance kept the scoresheet unchanged. One of Warriors' players got a red card for taking a swing at an innocent Veldon in front on the referee, pushing the game towards Panorama.

Eventually, with the introduction of the returning Egbers, Panorama found the 1-1 towards the end of the first half with Egbers scoring from a tight position from Gerrard's pass.

In the second half Warrior tried to introduce some speed in the game, but their gameplay didn't work at all. They somehow managed to find the 2-1, but soon after Veldon replied with a great header from Almeida's free kick to set the score to 2-2.

After last week's defeat this was the kind of reaction coach Kelly wanted from the team.
