Framlingham Town 7th March 2009

The line up was Ollie S in goal, Sam in defence, Freddie, Charlie B and Keiran in midfield, Dash and Matty up front. Jack and Connor S on the bench.

This was a much improved performance from last week. We battled well from the kick off and looked organised and hungry. Framlingham were also up for the game and it proved to be a very equal clash. Both teams attacked in numbers and defended well. Even tthough the end result was 0-0, it was an exciting game and well played.

Ollie made a few great saves and Sam was strong in defence. The midfielders battled well and created a lot of supply to the strikers. Unfortunately both Matty and Dash struggled with their first touch and were losing the ball far too easily. A definate training need here. On another day had they controlled even half of the passes they might have notched a couple of goals between them.

On balance 0-0 was the fairest result. neither team deserved to lose this one.

Unusually we have now gone two games without scoring!!

Man of the Match was Ollie Spink. He made some great saves that kept us in the game. A special mention the the midfielders who played very well as a unit.

B Game

The B's lost 3-1 to Framlinham earlier in the season so we knew we were in for a tough match.

We lined up- Harley in goal, Cammy in defence, Curtis, Ollie M & Alex in midfield, Nat & Jake up front. Dan, Connor R & Charlie W on the bench.

Once again the B's started well and played like a team, using the width of the park and puting together some lovely passes. Our movement was superb and Framlingham found it difficult to keep up with us.
We took the lead after 7 minutes when Nat finished well. 1-0.
Nat got the second after 16 minutes after we put Fram under a lot of pressure. 2-0.
With two minutes left of the half Ollie scored to make it 3-0. A nice cushion to take into the second half.
Nat had other ideas and scored again a minute later to round of a superb hat-trick and give us a 4 goal lead at half-time.

We continued to dominate in the second half keeping the Framlingham attacks to a minimum. unfortunately during one of their rare attacks Harley dropped an easy ball allowing their striker to score. To be fair to Harley he hadn't had much to do up to that point so was a little bit rusty!!

A few minutes later We restored our 4 goal cushion when Alex swung in a well taken corner which was finished well by Charlie W. 5-1

Three minutes later Charlie blasted home from just inside the box to make it 6-1
With seconds on the clock Charlie completed a superb second half hat-trick to make the final score 7-1.

Another great team performance from the B's and a well deserved win. not one but two hat-tricks from Nat and Charlie.

Man of the match was easy to pick today, although he did everything but score Curtis was involved in everything today, setting up attacks, making runs down the wing and defending like a demon. A great performance.
