This was going to be a testing friendly playing an A League team that had played 4 friendlies and been training over August.
Early on unsurprisingly we went two goals down and looked a bit short on almost everything but mainly speed to the ball, sharpness and match awareness but gradually as the game wore on we looked a bit quicker and more aware to finish up 3 down at half time.
Second half we looked a bit more secure in defense and even started to move the ball forward a bit we lost another goal but late on in the game we were starting to pressurise them, playing more together defensively using the offside rule and generally looking sharper and more aware after playing 50 mins.
A very good performance where we dramatically improved and continued to play football and never gave up. Mentions to the new players Matthew played a good 1st game with Charlie who looked like he had never played for another team over the last 2 years, well done to all.
Thanks Steve for being ref in your hobnail boots and Ollie for lines. Parents for being their for your boys, give yourselves a round of applause...CLAP CLAP............
