11 Nov 2012 - FC Abbey Meads (A)

A RESPECTFULL ONE MINUTES SILENCE WAS OBSERVED BY BOTH TEAMS. STRAIGHT INTO THE GAME WE HAD SOME LOVELY RUNS, AND WE STARTED TO PLAY LIKE A REAL TEAM. RAISHAM RECEIVED A PASS WHCH HE CONTROLLED AND TOOK A RUN, A DETERMINED SHOT AND WE WERE 1-0 UP. LIAM WAS FOCUSED IN GOAL AND MADE SOME CALCULATED SAVES. WE WERE THE BETTER TEAM AND KAI, ROBBIE, CALLUM, RAISHAM AND JAMES WERE RELENTLESS IN THEIR RUNNING UP THE PITCH CHARGING TOWARDS THE ABBEY MEADS GOAL AND FIRING SHOTS NON STOP. AFTER A CORNER JAMES TIPPED THE BALL TO KAI WHO ROLLED IT PAST THE KEEPER. 2-0 ROBBIE WAS HEADSTRONG AND MADE A FANTASTIC CHIP, THE TEAM WATCHED IN AWE AS IT FLEW OVER THE GOALIE'S HEAD STRAIGHT INTO THE TOP LEFT CORNER. WHAT A GOAL!! 3-0 HALF TIME. KORBEN WAS IN GOAL FOR THE SECOND HALF. WE HAD A GOOD TEAM SPIRIT WITH ENCOURAGING BANTER BETWEEN THE BOYS. KORBEN GOT DIRTY AND MADE SOME CONFIDENT SAVES IN THE PROCESS. LIAM WAS ZEALOUS IN DEFENCE MAKING SOME GREAT DECISIONS AND SENDING THE BALL BACK OUT OF OUR AREA. NAV WAS HIS USUAL NONCHALANT SELF, WHICH WORKS SO WELL FOR HIM. TOGETHER THEY WERE A GREAT DEFENSIVE TEAM. RAISHAM TOOK LONG CROSS WHICH PAID OFF. 4-0 CALLUM FOLLOWED SUIT WITH AN EAGER SHOT. 5-0 RAISHAM STOLE THE BALL, PASSED TO JAMES WHO TOOK ANOTHER FANTASITIC CROSS. 6-0 NAV AND LIAM HAD TO WORK HARD TO KEEP THE PRESSURE ON IN DEFENCE AS ABBEY MEADS NEVER GAVE UP. A STROKE OF LUCK AND THEY DENIED US A CLEAN SHEET. 6-1 RAISHAM WANTING A HAT TRICK, TOOK A CHANCE WITH A LONG RUN OF POSSESION, FINALLY TAKING A SHOT AND GETTING THE REWARD HE WANTED 7-1 ONE LAST SHOT FOR ABBEY MEADS BEFORE THE FINAL WHISTLE, SAVED AGAIN BY A GRINNING KORBEN. WE WERE TALKING TO EACHOTHER ENCOURAGINGLY, CONTROLLING THE BALL AND PASSING WELL.ALL THE LADS TOOK ON BOARD WHERE THEY SHOULD BE AND WHEN. IT WAS A GREAT GAME TO WATCH, THE SCORE JUST MADE IT ALL THE BETTER. A GREAT TEAM EFFORT.
