Rain Rain go away come back another day ……….
Nick started with a slight change Josh in Goal Louie, Morgan, Adonis and Joey in defence. Tom and Faizan in the middle with Connor just behind the striker, Saul & Charney on the wings and Gabe upfront. Theo, Jonathan and Callum started as subs. I think as soon as you kicked off to started to rain and looking at the photos some got on the camera.
However the rain seemed to revitalize you as you started the match fantastically. In the first 15 minutes Gabe must of had Six chances and on another day he would of taken at least three, however between some good goalkeeping and slightly wayward shooting the goal remained intact. Connor put one wide and another saved for a corner while Saul had one cleared off the line. The defense was strong with Louis excelling in his role at right back. We kept pushing for the goal that we deserved but it was one of those days. Suddenly on the break we got caught down the left and the ball got played through to their left back who scored 1.0. You all kept your heads but five mins later an almost identical goal was scored 2.0. Just want to say here that who ever is playing on the right or left of midfield/Wing you are not a forward. You must track back and help your full back. Yes i know its a tiring job but that is why we rotate the wings more than any other position to keep you fresh and working hard. Half Time 2.0
You did not deserve to be losing 2.0 😦
Second half began and you started really well again and it paid off straight away. Gabe got the goal his play deserved 2.1. A ball played through by Connor he ran and shot at the edge of the box and it slipped past. However soon after we were under a bit of pressure and we had a couple of chance to clear but we didn’t connect well with the ball 3.1.Heads didn’t drop and you kept looking dangerous on the break. Good play by Louie and Charney down the right freed Gabe again and he didn’t miss 3.2. Oakhill came back strong and you got pushed back but defended really well. A free kick was given away just outside the area the opposition put the ball over the wall but Josh made a excellent save to tip it over for a corner. Still the pressurized us but Morgan and Edonis remained strong with Tom sweeping up infront. 15 Minutes to go you broke again with Charney down the right who fed Gabe and i thought it went in but it hit the side netting……. Aarrrgh. Five minutes to go and we won a corner Connor played it in and both Louie and Charney nearly scored however after a bout of ping pong the ball broke loose and fell to there forward who broke quickly. Josh came out but he rounded him and slotted into a empty net 4.2. Last five minutes you still pushed for goal but no luck was coming. Final score 4.2 —– And the rain STOPPED
I know you came off upset and annoyed but you shouldn’t be. You all played really well and play like that you will win more than you lose. Both the Referee and there Manager said we should of been three or four up before they even got a look in.
MoTM went to two players Louis who had a great game at right back, helped attack down the right, covered defensively and Connor worked hard in midfield closed the opposition down and played some great balls through.
Training tomorrow night see you there
