After a defeat in the cup last week we looked to bounce back to winning ways in the league.
We started off well piling pressure on our opponents looking to find an early goal. After a few missed chances we were rewarded through Chad who found the back of the net to put us 1-0 up. We kept the pressure on and could have found ourselves 3-0 up at HT However , it wasnโt meant to be.
As the 2nd half started we didnโt match the energy or the pace as we did in the 1st half. We still had majority of the possession and reduced our opponents to limited chances . Saying this we still created Chances , Hitting the crossbar , missing 1 on 1 โ s and Brett missing an open net โฆ
Since we couldnโt hit the target we looked to our super sub ( Thurcrofts Defender ) who under pressure from Malik slotted the ball past his own GK to put us 2-0 up.
FT 2-0
Not our greatest performance but on another day could have had 7 goals.
MOTM - Chad , Didnโt put a foot wrong in the middle of the park and controlled the game. Took his goal very well.
Good luck to our opponents for rest of season.
