MATCH REPORT
This was another game that was decided with one team taking over in the final 20 minutes.
The Reds started the game in organised fashion. The defenders were solid and distributing the ball to the attacking players quickly who between themselves were creating some good chances. The Blues managed to hold them off and counter attack quickly using the pace of Elliott and Dim.
It was the Reds who broke the deadlock and scored two quick goals, but you always felt the Blues were well in the contest. Eventually the Blues scored and Elliot was seeing more and more of the ball.
After a few goals for both teams in an evenly matched game, the Reds had a great spell, particularly with Bryan leading the line superbly. He scored a few wonderful goals with his back turned to goal and also created chances for his teammates. Martin and Balf were making some great runs and some lovely football was been played. The Reds found themselves 3 up.
The Blues found some rhythm and started to play much better. Ste was putting some big tackles in and was starting to control the game for them. Elliot was making his trademark runs from midfield and with his pace, forced some mistakes and helped himself to some great goals. Dim and John were also creating some space and chipped in with a few goals.
With the scores all level this was a real competitive match and stayed that was for the next 15 minutes. The Reds continued to try and play pass and move football whereas the Blues were playing a more direct route to goal. Every goal for both teams was celebrated like a cup final and every tackle made felt like a goal. Had a big game feel to it.
The final 20 minutes was decisive. A few of the Blues players switched off either through fatigue or a lack of concentration. With the Reds continuing to play the passing game, they were suddenly finding more space and their runs not being tracked. Balf filled his boots with some devastating finishing with Martin running the Blues ragged. Tommy was also having a wonderful game never giving the away and setting up his teammates with chances. With Ryan playing like two men at the back the Reds were completely dominant for the final 20 minutes and played excellently and won by 6 goals.
The Blues didnt really deserve to get beaten by that scoreline but Reds continued to keep playing football and it paid off for them.
Good game lads what an exciting final 3 games its going to be!
With 3 games left important to clarify rules regarding league positions if two people are on the same amount of points. A person will be placed higher if he has more MOTM. If they are the same then it goes to number of votes, after that it goes to victories, after that appearances! Never know it could come down to that!
MAN OF THE MATCH
Martin just edges this weeks MOTM with 5 votes. He was back to his best and the Martin we know. Busy all over the field, tracking back and making intelligent runs up front. Made some superb blocks and tackles and scored some cracking goals. Well deserved well played Mart!
Remaining votes went to:
Balf with 4
Elliot with 1
Ryan with 1
Ste with 1
KEY STATS
Andy is top of the tree by 3 points but with him missing next week is he going to regret it, 5 players are within 4 points of him, incredible season!
Nathan and Alan on 5 loses each, both will look to finish the season on a high!
Balf has a decent 13 votes this season but has missed out on MOTM each game. Unlucky
