Wow.......what a fantastic result yesterday chaps - I would say that has to be our best win of the season. Not just because you beat Colyton who were joint 3rd in the table but because you did it playing some great football.
It was a confident start to the game and we were unlucky not to get a couple of goals early on but instead it was Colyton who were the ones that went ahead, with their first shot on goal. Unlike previous games when we have gone behind we stayed positive, kept our shape and played our passing game and were soon rewarded with a free kick just outside the penalty area. George confidently stepped up and thumped home a superb strike leaving their keeper standing. We created plenty more great opportunities and Pacey managed to, instinctively, stick one of them away before half time taking us into the break 2-1 up.
We were playing against the wind and rain in the second half but that didn't seem to affect us too much, as we were still by far the better team and looked very comfortable. Euan put us 3-1 up scoring from close range from a impressive assist from Pacey having been on a mesmeric run past a number of defenders. Zak Milling's got our 4th with a with a very cool and clinical finish.
It was a tense last couple of minutes when Colyton got 2 goals back. This was my fault boys so apologies; I shouldn't have changed things around near the end, which disrupted the shape of the team, but thankfully you all dug in and held on to claim a much deserved victory.
Captains armband goes to George for his overall excellent play and a cracking goal (I said you would get one!) - well done!
Worth a mention
Zac Burnard has really settled in nicely to his defensive midfield role and produced yet another solid performance. Pacey was also excellent in midfield again.
See you all tomorrow for our last training session of the season.
