A big improvement on the last game v Avonvale.
In particular, the defence worked hard to stop the threat from the
two forwards who scored a few in the home fixture.
We went ahead after a couple of minutes. Johan's corner flicked on
by Arthur for Charlie to score. We played pretty well for 35
minutes before Avonvale scored in the last minute.
We were slow start off the second half and Avonvale scored after a
few minutes. It remained 2-1 for the rest of the match, despite
Charlie hitting the post and several other chances. Avonvale
pressured constantly and we withstood well, but never really took
control of the ball to threaten their goal enough to win.
Overall, a tough match on a soft, wet slopey pitch on a cold day
with a close scoreline. Well done to the defence for all the hard
work soaking up the pressure. Ty certainly "took one for the
team".
MoM - Jonny for being muddiest player - some excellent saves and a
very safe pair of hands today.
The good news is that the teams around us made little progress
today - so we are still in touch with the middle teams in the
table.
Training tomorrow as normal - I am at Ridgeway at the start so PX
is in charge with help from John Reeves.
No matches over half term - next match is AWAY at Chippenham on
24/2 10.30 kick off
