MATCH REPORT

Was good to play in a much better and closer game this week! A close game which ultimately was settled by the old boys!

It was a close game for a long while with not much between the teams. A big turning point in the game was when Adam was substituted for his son which opened the game up and left space for both teams.

John Mc scored surely one of the best goals of his long career with an absolute rocket into the top corner, definately the goal of the match! A goal from the young gun put the Blue’s noses in front then it was a case of seeing the game out from the Blue’s point of view. The Reds pushed hard but found themselves up against a solid defence which included Tommy who had a great game at the back, making several blocks and chance saving tackles.

The Reds could leave the game with their heads held high, they just came up against a great team performance from the Blues. Every Blue player played quality which earned them a great victory. Roll on next week!

MAN OF THE MATCH

A 3 way tie this week with John, Tommy and Andy receiving 4 votes each!

John scored a peach and created several chances for his team, a constant thorn to the Reds! Tommy was brilliant at the back and almost certainly stopped a few Reds goals, kept it simple too and used his experience. Andy made a few big saves at key moments in the game. Well played lads!

Remaining votes went to:

Balf with 1

Elliot with 1

KEY STATS

Dim wins or draws next week he is guaranteed the league title!

Ian needs a win and MOTM to guarantee a 3rd title! If he wins he can also win a 3rd title if he gets 5 more votes than Dim next week! Not over till its over! 😉

Great form from Balf after lockdown, 3 wins from 3 games. Well and truly turned it around. 👏
