What started off with a frosty morning soon turned into a puurrrrrfect day to play football. Sun shining, flat calm not a breath in the air. The 2nds had some what of a thread bear squad due to a few of the regulars thinking they are Lindsay Vonn and taken themselves skiing MID SEASON!!! This also meant 10th choice goalkeeper Josh was making a rare appearance. The game started with Ireland trying to persistently go from one wing to another then try and attack. Leaving the central midfield players to play tiddly winks. The first half was quiet. Until Nick Pawley found his left foot and rattled the under side of the bar. Their keeper didn’t have a clue, and this should have given Irlande a an invite to his level of keeping. However we didn’t seem to take the hint. The game went on and Brioche succumbed to their Futsal skills and took a player down inside our box. Penalty. No complaints really. You’d think Briocche had just knifed him however. The opposition put a very well placed penalty in to Joshs right. 1-0 Half time.
2nd half the rallied troops came out wanting to make a difference. And it just didn’t happen. The opposition goalkeeper looked scared any time the ball came within 10 meters. But we could capitalise. The opposition just wanted to play long through balls, which in the main we handled well. Opposition number 7 screamed like a toddler not getting bitty when he was touched. With his mum on the sideline chirping up everytime he wanted booby milk. Irlande had a free kick late on in a good position. But Lolo mist have been watching last night’s rugby and put it over the bar. Nothing much else to report on:
MOTM: Nick Pawley
Forfeit by the opposition
