After yesterdays win we remain top of the league with our unbeaten record still in tact, which is great news. Brixington are one the best footballing teams we played this season and proved to be stern test for us but, fortunately, we just about edged it.
We just didn't get going in the first half, however against the run of play we did go ahead when Zak Milling opened up the blues defence with a lovely through pass for Matt to run onto and score with an amazing strike into the top corner.
Brixington started the second half positively and were rewarded with an good equalising goal that Ollie could do little about. It wasn't until this point, when our unbeaten record was well and truly under threat, that we started to get the ball down and string some good passes together. The chances then followed and the winner came from one of Matt's confident surging runs through on goal and he made no mistake with the finish. For his 2 fantastic goals Matt wins Match of the Match award - well done Matt!
We have one more game and then we will have played every team before going into a well deserved Christmas break. I think this will do us good, as we are looking a little jaded, which is understandable as you've done so incredibly well so far - certainly exceeded my expectations! Remember, we are the team that everyone wants to beat and because of this others do raise their game against us making for tough matches, even against lower league opposition.
Well done again on another hard fought win and see you at training Monday.
