A deserved win ………

Today’s squad

Frankie, Louis, Jack, Edonis, Sony, Hyde, Jed, Connor, Tom, Joey, Morris, Gabe, Harry, Saul and Polly

Another slow start from us again, not enough pressure on the players and too many sloppy balls, however the first couple chances fell to us. Good work by Louis and Tom down the right saw a Morris shot well saved by the keeper. Somehow they managed to block the rebound. Soon after another ball forward found Morris who was unlucky with a shot ,Connor followed the rebound and saw his shot cleared on the line and they scrambled the ball away for a corner. From the corner Connor found Edonis and his header hit the bar and went over.

Soon we paid for over playing at the back and a ball across the goal was picked up by there forward who ran in to score at the far post 0.1 fifteen gone

This actually seemed the pick up you all needed. Jed won the ball played it to Tom who played inside to Connor and his through ball to Gabe gave him a 1 on 1 which the keeper saved well at his feet.

Jed won another ball in the middle and drove forward he played in Morris who unleashed a thunderbolt from outside the box to score 1.1 25 mins gone

Literally 5 mins later Gabe picked the ball up in the opponents half and shot. The ball sailed over the keeper who was off his line and flew in under the bar 2.1

Last fifteen saw you move up a few gears and chances came . Saul drove down the left and cut the ball back somehow Brady scrambled the ball away. Tom was unlucky with a good shot low at the keepers near post. Just before half time Frankie makes a great save at the edge of his box in a one on one situation 2.1 HT

Second half started well we were on the attack straight away and unlucky with a couple of chances. However with a slender lead and I always felt there was more goals in this game. A good corner from Polly found Gabe in the box unchallenged to head it in 3.1

More good work down the left this time by Louis found Harry who cut into the box and blasted the ball home 4.1

Brady broke and after good work found themselves in our a box a excellent shot was fantastically saved by Frankie to tip round for a corner. However from the corner we were undone after the ball was cleared a speculative shot took Frankie by surprise 99 time out of 100 a routine save Frankie took his eye off and the ball went in 4.2 Brady had their tails up

It came very end to end with us still having the best chances Edonis hit a great free kick that the keeper saved to his right and they scored almost from the break away down the the right a cross./shot drifted in the far post 4.3

Time to step up a gear and you did almost straight away a free kick on a right was played in and here is something i never thought i would say Gabe leapt like a Salmon for the SECOND time in the game to score with his head Yes two headed Goals 5.3

Now the pressure seemed off and soon it was wrapped up with a nice team goal Edonis short free kick to Hyde, Played the ball to the edge of the box to Connor, who fed Jed in the area. Jed crossed for Morris whose first shot was blocked but he poked home the rebound. 6.3

Last five minutes and Morris hit the post , Polly was unlucky with a great shot and then i thought Polly was gonna finish it with an overhead kick you could of easily won by more FT 6.3

MoTM : After a sloppy ten minute i thought to a man a great team performance a couple of individuals to note Louis good work in both wing back rolls, Connor excellent in midfield making tackles and some great through balls, But today it went to Gabe he has had a tough couple of weeks not everything going his way but today a great shot and two headed goals. He worked hard for the team closing the defence down when they had the ball and taking his chance. He was upset he missed a chance with his left foot before the second goal as that would of been a proper hat trick !!!!

Well done all see you at training
