Today was the day we tried
a new formation to accommodate our newer players. The strong
winds didn't help but we played things very tight indeed
in the first half, although our man-marking showed signs
of slipping at times. After some fast and furious play,
we came in half-time, proudly holding a 0-0 draw, thanks
to some very good defending and goalkeeping. However, in
the second half, we were playing against the increasingly
strong wind and this more than helped the Warriors as and
they used it to score. We battled back but eventually it
was then that our man-marking did slip and they scored
twice more before the final whistle.
A valiant performance and some real signs of improving
team-play. We just need to get back on the score sheet!
Man of the Match: Ethan-another courageous performance
where he held his own and pulled off some excellent saves.
It was an awful day to play
or even support football and we do appreciate all
the Mothers that made the effort today! Happy Mother's
Day to you all!
Thanks yet again for the excellent support we enjoy.
