Champions 1sts were looking to keep their 💯 home record intact against a strong Wong team. No guard of honour from these lads, apart from our first goal, a great move involving Arjan, brilliant passing from Daan, Erik & superb assist from Rachid, great finish by Arjan. 2-0 then from a Rachid free kick & then he waltzed past 3 & curled our 3rd into the bottom corner. They then got a really soft penalty & James buried a beautiful own goal from a corner to make a comfortable game 3-2 at HT. We dominated the 2nd half but needed Ricard to make 2 great saves & then Thomas made it 4-2 at the end from a lovely Noel assist. MOTM Rachid. Onto O’Reilly’s for the celebrations. COYBIG ☘️🇮🇪🏆
1sts had an early start in Tervuren away against Wong & it showed. Very windy & a narrow pitch, we weren’t quite at it & they caused us some problems. We had a few half chances but were thankful to Ricard for an incredible save down low at his near post to keep it at 0-0 at HT. Started the 2nd half much better, had chances through Erik, Naim & a few goalmouth scrambles. Went ahead when a cross come shot from Alvaro flew in the far corner. They pushed & we we again had Ricard to thank with 2 great saves, one before we scored & one near the end. Did not play well but showed great character to get the win, still unbeaten & still top. Tough game against LXG next week
