Bryan Munich 2 Real Wood 3
@ Frys,
20th September 2015
The
new Somerdale Pavilion hosted our first match of the season and
produced a good-spirited, exciting contest containing several
nominations for goal of the month. Real Wood took the lead through Tom P
early on but Bryan Munich equalised with a well-struck shot from the
edge of the area. A wonderful rapid breakaway move initiated by Jim's
50-yard defence-splitting pass found Rick, who put a first-time ball
across to Gaz, who took one touch before placing the ball in the corner
of the opposition's net, 1-2.
A
close contest followed but it was halfway through the second half when
Jim picked up the ball, looked up and placed a perfect dipping, 30-yard
shot in off the underside of the bar, 1-3.
Some
fairly sustained pressure from Bryan Munich brought a series of
excellent saves from keeper, Andy, before Munich pulled one back with an
excellent curling left-foot shot from outside the area.
Real
end-to-end stuff followed as both sides created more chances but did
not affect the scoreline so a good win starts the season.
Some
excellent performances by Swifty, Matt W and Tom D in defensive roles
but Man-of-the-Match went to Jim for an excellent performance capped by a
his pass to create our second goal and the superb strike for what
turned out to be our winner.
