So yesterday we drove down to Launceston in Cornwall about a 45 mins drive.
Coming off the back of a big win last week we knew we should play well and probably win.
Well everything seemed a bit weird even in the warm up. Hard to put a finger on it.
We started ok and we should have had a goal bur the ref said it didn't go in even though the side netting moved.
Southgate were hitting on the counter attack and they scored a decent shot I got fingers too but couldn't keep out.
Anyway heads up and I received the ball back before I looked up and hit the ball forgetting my striker who scored with a lovely finish.
We all thought right we have scored now so we can keep pushing on. Unfortunately we still weren't at the races and we lost the ball from our throw in and didn't close a player down who looped a shot over me in to the far corner. Again I got fingers tips too it but not enough.
Half time and we were down 2-1
Here came the team talk and we got woken up let's just say that. Coaches were brilliant in making us realise that we were better.
Second half we were first to every ball winning the ball back high and recycling the ball well.
I was regularly recieving the ball back so I could switch play or hit the ball forward.
My kicks started off 2 more goals and we were playing some great football.
Me were almost playing against another player as turns out the ref was parts of their club. Which explains some of the decisions. Phantom free kicks and even questioning our linesman.
At 4-2 I made a massive save that stopped any sniff of a comeback
We went in to win 6-2
Meaning we have played 4 and won 4 with 2 clean sheets along the way.
Big game next weekend against 2nd in the league. Now they haven't yet played any tip teams so we aren't sure what they are like. But we have to start well and be sharp from the off.
I got coaches player of the match for my game management and disruption.
