St
Vallier U13 (4) v Fry Club Colts U13 (3)
October
30, 2005
Just before half time,
some great play from midfield (Evan Thomas) and out on the right (Harry Pople)
fed the ball into the box and Dan Buley fired a shot into the far top corner of
the net.
The Fry’s boys were
told at half time that more communication was needed between them, and they
needed to close the gaps that were appearing. The game was there for them to
win.
With renewed enthusiasm
they started the second half with a goal straight from the whistle with the ball
being scrambled over the line by Ryan Davis for his second of the day.
Not long after making it
3 – 2, Fry’s nearly got a fourth when Justin Skinner saw a shot go just over
the bar and Dan Buley had a well headed goal disallowed for off side. The ref
initially gave it but a very dubious decision by the linesman ruled it off.
Straight away from the
free kick, Vallier stormed up the other end and their striker sealed his
hattrick with an amazingly struck shot.
The game was held up for
quite some time with injuries to players on both sides. Play was going from end
to end and it looked like it would end in a draw until Vallier scored the winner
with their striker netting his fourth.
The final whistle went
dead on 70 minutes with no added on time being played to compensate for the
injury stoppages so Fry’s unfortunately saw their 7 match winning streak come
to an end. Boys, take this as a hiccup to the season and get back to winning
ways next week.
