AEK BOCO (1) v Fry Club Colts (3)

06/04/06

 

 

The first re-arranged match of the season to be played in the evening. The weather was sunny but there was a bitterly cold wind blowing across the pitch.

 

It took just 2 minutes for Fry’s to take the lead with Dan Buley firing a shot over the

BOCO keeper who had come out off his line to try and narrow the angle. What a start and 1-0 up.

 

Fry’s soon after get a chance to make it 2 nil when they are awarded a corner but the shot from the cross went just wide.

 

32^nd minute and BOCO are awarded a free kick a third of the way into the Frys half.

A long high ball sent into the box glances off the head of Harry Pople who rose well in an attempt to clear the ball, but it looped up and over the full stretched Tom Ashley into the Fry’s net. 1-1.

 

Straight away the play goes up to the BOCO goal end, and after some determined work by Jack Baber, he regains the lead again for Fry’s when he cuts the ball back and scrambles it into the net from close range, 2-1.

 

Into the second half, and the game has turned into a scrappy encounter with neither team seeming to get the ball down and play football. It looked more like a game of volleyball using the feet.

 

15 minutes into the half Fry’s have a good chance to extend their lead when the ball comes out to the unmarked Ryan Davis in the right hand side of the area, but his shot goes just wide.

Lewis Marcham has come on as sub and is playing some strong football on the right.

Numerous attempts on goal from Justin Skinner are unfortunate not to get him on the score sheet.

 

BOCO seem to find some extra determination and mount attacks on the Fry’s goal area, but the back four of Hooper, Stone, Sheehan and Curtis keep them at bay.

 

Fry’s safely get the 3 points of a win when a free kick awarded to them is quickly taken by Justin Skinner who thumps it up field. It is chased down by Dan Buley who gets to it just before the advancing BOCO keeper and chips the ball over him and into the net.

 

This is the score line the game ends on after what seems a never ending second half.

 

Well done lads, another win which goes to hopefully helping you to securing a high position in the division at the end of the season.
