MANAGERS COMMENTS:
It was great to have a full squad of 16, although it did create a need to balance the team experience with fairness.
All the boys took their substitutions well and hopefully agree team spirit and fresh legs are important.
Jordan took some fantastic corners, even getting him on the score sheet.
Kieran A headed in a great goal and worked tirelessly throughout the match.
Alex H and Sean both had excellent games.
REPORT:
Earls Colne got off to a slow start which gave SRY the chance of an early goal. Was an afternoon kick off going to be the downfall of EC again?
Michael R made a great break and was clearly through to the goal when he was fouled in the box. Kieran A stepped up to take the penalty and scored. This was the turning point in the game, EC now started to play. Unusually Charlie asked to come off as he was feeling unwell so the substitution plan was already changing. Jack came off injured, the 'green bag' made it on to the pitch at last, and patched him up so he could return to the field later. William then scored, and then Kieran A.
Half time 3-1
The second half continued in EC's favour and Brandon was lonely for spells of the match. The next goal came from a cheeky over head kick from Kieran A and Michael R finding the net. As mentioned Jordan took some great corners, and even managed to score on his own. The final goal was another Kieran A. It has to be said that SRY goal keeper made a number of great saves.
Final score 6-1 |
