It was a really well contested match between 2 good sides yesterday and played in the right spirit. A positive start to the game saw us take an early lead via an some excellent pressure from Alfie and a well struck shot that their goalkeeper couldn't keep out. We continued to impress stifling St Martins passing game and forcing mistakes, however some sloppy defending saw them get level. Francis got himself into a good position to tap in our second and see us into the break ahead.
St Martins upped their game in the second half and deservedly equalised, albeit with a scrappy goal, and started to dominate and press for another. By this time we had some tired legs and our passing game suffered but despite this we went ahead for a third time from another superb Alfie goal.
With only a couple of minutes left to play, St Martins scored again to earn the draw, which was probably the fair result in the end.
Man of the Match goes to Zak Milling for not only standing in as goalkeeper having never played there before but also doing a sterling job - not being at fault for any of the goals I might add. Well done Zak!
See you all at training Monday!
Jon
