Vets2 was playing Aema, the team just above in the ranking. Vets2 dominated the first half (yes, you read that correctly) with a ball saved on the line, a great save by their goalie on an Oscar header and some shots that went just wide. In the end, it took a rush forward by Paddy passing it to Antonio who finished it clinically in the top corner. Second half was a bit more nervous with Vets2 losing control over the game. We still had some good chances with Jeff; a clear penalty on Oscar not given; and the ref (it was theirs) allowing the goalie to stop a shot with his hands outside of the box. Luckily the ref got his vision back to disallow a final minute goal by the opposition (their attacker used both hands to put the ball in). A well deserved win for Vets2 with – in true Vets 2 fashion – 2 men of the match. Congrats to Paddy and Antonio
