Uckfield Grasshoppers 10 Maresfield 0 CDJFL Cup September 25, 2007
Posted by editor in : Uncategorized , trackbackThis local “derby” looked on paper to be a difficult challenge and for the first period it looked like that would be the case, Maresfield came ready to attack and we were just a little bit to relaxed allowing to much space and several shooting opportunities, fortunately Dan was not in the mood to be beaten and Paul, Kane, Tom and Sam got organised very quickly and protected our goal.
Once Ollie and Ben got control in the middle we were soon able to bring Charlie and Benjo out wide into the game and it wasn’t long before the deadlock was broken with Sully scoring at the near post from a good run by Harley. This really gave us a lift and the pace of the game picked up the passing got neater, quicker and soon more goals came.
It is fair to say that Marefield’s goalkeeper Harry played really well and made some great saves at the feet of onrushing players and caught the ball well, he did his best to keep the score down. At half time the coach made three subs changing both full backs and Sully our jet propelled centre forward. Reece Callam and George came on and very quickly got into it, more neat passing and great finishing meant more changes could be made towards the end giving everybody a fair amount of time on the pitch.
For the record the goal scorers were
Dan (Sully) - 3
Harley - 3
Ollie - 2
Benjo - 2
Well done guys see you at training.
