Fleet Spurs 0   Headley Piranhas   5

 

Firstly I'd like to say congratulations to the boys, both Fleet and Headley for sticking with it on a very wet pitch, in exceptionally wet conditions.
 
This was our second match, and we played a brilliant game against a much more experienced team, for the most part we completely held them at bay, with some scares for Headley being delivered from Ben Shefras, Daniel Barden and Robbie Coupland. Well done boys. Headley took a half time lead of 3 - 0 and scored another 2 goals in the second half, in most cases catching the Fleet defence pushing forward.
 
An excellent second half performance saw Robbie Coupland pushing the attack at every opportunity, and for this he was awarded The Player of the Match Trophy.
 
I would also like to mention an excellent defensive performance from Joel Douglas, and some good running and excellent tackling from Joel Easters. Finally an outstanding goal keeping performance by Andre Pienaar in the second half kept Headleys final score lower than could have been.
 
A little more work on positional play and I think we will start to see some winning results.
