Chenois SC 1

The firsts went to Waterloo in a typical summer-weather day of March.
The team was missing some banana players due to the World Championship of… darts. But luckily the great Club spirit is there and we welcomed some players from 3rds, 4rds and Vets.
Chenois, a team relegated, they started with 10 players and we tried to press high to get quickly goals. But it took us 20 good minutes to brake the score. Rachid running on the right, clean cross and Grisha put the ball in the net. No more to say from the 1sts half, except that we went six times in offside position.. Abssa referee…
Second half, with a non comfortable 1-0 we had the possession, but we could not create nice combinations. But after missing some chances, Rachid closed the game with the second goal. Typical Rachid one, from the right to the center, shot to the long post. Over. 2-0.
Kind of ugly game, dominating, but with lack of speed and good decisions in the last third of the pitch. But three points and a clean sheet, and a great Club spirit! Motm: Rachid.

1sts got back to winning ways with a 2 0 win over Chenois . Missing a few regulars but still able to field a strong side 1sts began the game in determined mood .  Well on top for most of the game 1sts found chances hard to come by and it was 0 0 at Half Time,  in the 2nd half we opened the scoring when Arjan slotted the ball in from a good move. We kept pressing but it was proving hard to get real chances. As we approached the last 5 minutes we finally put the game to bed when Arjan worked his way through on the left and then slid a great pass across the area   where Nair came in to drive it into the net. Game over.

Good performance with some great moves at times but also some loose play as well.
