First Win 🙂

Today’s squad Frankie, Joel, Morgan, Edonis, Jed, Saul, Louis, Harry, Gabe, Morris, Ollie, Reynolds, Joey and Arlind.

To be honest again we were slow starters, yes we had the majority of the pressure but we didn’t close down quick enough in the middle of the park. Morris was unlucky with a early chance, but we almost paid the price in the first 5 mins. A simple ball run not challenged a ball through the middle and it was one on one with Frankie. Frankie came out really well and blocked the shot with his foot to clear for a corner, a really good save.

The next ten minutes we got back into the game Gabe and Ollie looked dangerous and Morris continuously harassed the defence. Ollie nearly scored from a outrageous over Kick that just went over the bar. However he was not to be denied and five minutes later after good work by Gabe & Morris Ollie finished really well. 1.0

Still we had most the pressure but old habits slipped back. We didn’t close the man and again a simple ball played through this time no chance from Frankie. 1.1

More chances came, i am sure we scored from a free kick but a dubious offside said not. Gabe scored but again another dubious offside. With ten minutes to half time it looked like we were going to finish the first half level but Arlind had other ideas……

Arlind a late call up was on hand to finish good work from Joey down the left. Joey played a great ball and Arlind smashed it home. 2.1

Literally 5 minutes later we had a repeat good work down the left and again Arlind was fed in the box and fired it home 3.1 Two excellent finishes 3.1 HT

Now unfortunately i had to leave so no second half report, i did ask the boys to send me one but i email was extremely bear ……..

I was informed that they had more control of the second half but created little chance apart from one goal so sounds like the defence had a good strong second half.

MoTM . Well easy one for me this week, a late call up to the squad , possibly first touch was a goal and then a second to follow. Well done Arlind two great finishes

Training Tuesday 6.30 PM see you all there
