QE vs Middlesbruuuuhhh College
First game of the season was always
going to prove difficult with most of the lads not having played together
before, also due to the late drop out of Doug Birks. Nevertheless we started
positively enjoying most of the early possession and winning our individual
battles. After 10 minutes our hard work paid off with a throw down the left
from Murphy that split the Boro defence and Jack capitalised and placed his
shot into the bottom corner. After going one up we switched off and conceded
not long after. We continued to create chances but couldn’t take these chances,
and shortly after we paid the price when one of the Boro lads struck a shot
from 20 yards that managed to lob all 6 foot and 8 inches of our goalkeeper. Not
long after this, Boro scored again with a smart move down the right hand side.
Going into half time 3-1 down we knew we had to up our game. With the
introduction of Davo at half time the game entered a stage of aggression with
Davo deciding to wire their entire team, because he got them all fired up I
ended up getting absolutely levelled by their centre half (I plan to get him
back in the reverse fixture). After everyone calmed down they increased their
lead to 4-1 after a through ball and low shot from their striker that Tomo
would have saved if he had not went down like a sack of potatoes. However he
did produce a good goal kick that sent Harry clean through who squared it to
Jack who grabbed his second goal. However literally from the kick off we
conceded again and the score remained at 5-3 with the last 15 minutes being the
most boring 15 minutes of my life. Probably due to the real ginger Pirlo being
brought off during this time.
Final Score:
QE 3 – Boro 5
Motm:
Jack Adams
