Copains Réunis 1

After a difficult start of 2024, 4ths faced Copains Reunis with the objective of starting a new winning streak.
We started the game being very serious and focused and made ourselves the game easy with 3 goals scored in 20 minutes by Draga (2) and Fabi.
Their only excellent player scored a very beautiful goal to give them a bit of hope.
Hope that Draga killed straight after with his hattrick to make it 4-1 at HT.
4ths then managed to keep the ball for most of the 2nd half, staying calm and confident.
Got a couple of clear chances through long balls in the back of their very high defense.
But we scored the 5th goal with a long range shot from Carlo close to the end.
5-1 win. Good for our confidence and maintains our 2nd position in the table.

On a wet cold windy Saturday in mid December, 4ths made their final trip of 2023 to Nossegem to face Copains Reunis.

The boys were determined to achieve their highest ever Xmas points total and continue the push for the top position.

We started well and created a few opportunities which culminated in a free kick just outside the 18yd box. Nick measured it well and put it in the top corner.

The game then became more even but Matteo kept the ball put despite hard hits from the opponents. The late in the half, after some good pressure, the ball fell to Draga in the box and he did the business. HT 2-0

The second half started with 4ths slightly on top but Unfortunately Copains got the first breakthrough with a goal from the edge of the box. 4th immediately regained their 2 goal lead through a break away by Draga. This killed a bit the spirit of Copains and the goals followed with a penalty from Gianluca, a very well placed strike from a break by Gianluca. 4ths final goal was a Carlo shot from edge of the box. Copains did manage to get a consolation in the final couple of minutes unfortunately but it did not take any gloss of a great result.

Final score 6-2
