MATCH REPORT
What a brilliant match this was, one of the best yet!
The Blues started hot and went 3-0 up after 10 minutes and it looked like they were going to cruise to an easy victory.
But the Reds were having non of it, Alan and Ian for the Reds soon organised their team and crawled their way back with some excellent finishing, particularly Richie and Ian with some long range specials.
The Blues completely lost their shape and gaps in the middle meant Ian and Richie started to dictate play and dominate the match. Danny in an unfamiliar role in defence was also having a blinder keeping the Blues quiet.
After a quick pep talk, the Blues changed positions with Bryan swapping to defence alongside Tommy. Also they stopped the gaps in the centre. This was a pivotal tactical move as the Blues got themselves back into the game with some great goals by El and Balf.
With 30 minutes to go the game was brilliant to be involved in, one minute the Blues went ahead, the next the Reds went ahead. Who wins, anyones guess at this stage. Some brilliant well worked goals, some great saves from both goalkeepers, the occasional big tackle and a great vibe in the match.
10 minutes to go and the Reds went 2 goals up and to be honest it looked like they had sealed it. But straight from kick off El went on an incredible solo run and smashed in a superb goal and then the Blues tails were back up, the Reds heads went down.
3 goals from the Blues to go 2 ahead and the game was sealed, what drama!
Great win for the Blues, the Reds played their part in a great spectacle and it really could have gone either way. The last 2 weeks of the season could be very interesting! Well played lads 👍

KEY STATS
After 4 straight wins Alan now has 4 straight losses. Its come at a bad time and he slips to 4th. Still not out of it though!
Ian’s miserable run continues with 1 win in 6. Can he at least get a 2nd win this season?
2 points separate Balf and Ryan at the top, the captains have a big game next week!
