BEES 6 - 3 HOPE FARM
It was our turn to score six this week as the boys put on a great team display to beat Hope Farm. The correct pitch size and goals helped for a good match.
The first quarter was pretty even with both teams going forward and shooting on sight. The Hope Farm goalie pulled off some brilliant saves and was very good at coming off his line to keep us out. At the other end Oliver made a wonderful save, clawing one out of the top corner to keep the score 0-0.
In the second quarter we switched things around a little and as we were getting used to our positions Hope Farm scored. At this point we brought Samuel back into the game, unaware of what was going to happen!! Hope Farm were suddenly struggling to keep reigns on Henry, Ben and Samuel and we were soon back in the game from a mazy run and finish from Samuel. 1-1 and GAME ON!
The next 15 minutes were dominated by Waverton and from a solid base we were able to score 5 more goals - 4 more from Samuel and a good finish from Ben. Our desire to win the ball and get forward in this period was great to see, against a big and physical side.
All the boys were brilliant today and we looked well organised from goal kicks, corners and throw-ins. The game was end to end and had it not been for the excellent Hope Farm goalie we could have had more. Christopher also pulled off some good stops in the final quarter.
Everyone was involved today and gave 100%, which is the main thing. We also put together some lovely passing moves. When Hope Farm threatened to get back into the match we dug in well with some hard tackles and solid clearances from Oliver B in particular.
MOTM went to Samuel for a high energy, battling performance and 5 goals. It was like Ian Rush V Everton!
Well done to all the boys.
Well done!!
