KNIHGTS S.I. - 3 BLAZE F.C. - 4
We were out at old Assosciation park last night bringing back memories of many hard fought battles with the Delta United boys on what was by far the best pitch we played on all year. We started with a man down and they started with at least four subs so you do the math as to who took the lead first. They were all over us and just could not hit the net thanxs in most part to crazy hair and his pace just being too much for anyone to control
. They score two and with ten minutes left our 11th man shows (Tides are turning).
Second half now and we go at em' and our rewared with two goals after only about 15 mins. or so. Should be noted that the man they call army made a couple of great diving saves on yours truly as he stood his ground well. With 18 left we slot our third to take the lead and it looks as though we may have finally beaten the blaze. But alas the resolve of the blaze and sheer exhaustion of our vintage team was what did us in. They score on a questionable free kick outside our box (well slotted by JR I must ad) with 15 left to play and then the nail in the coffin as a breakaway proves to be the game winner. As the forward was running in on goal for the fourth goal our Defence stopped and asked if he was offside only to have jimmy's whistle and the point to centre signal the answer to their question. A bit of comic relief as you had to actually be their to witness the reaction from the defense comedy in a losing cause oh well ... Should be noted that KEEPER had a fine performance and was the reason the score was the way it was stopping many a close range shot and or breakaway.
Good luck to all in upcoming playoffs and whoever get's the chance to play at Assosciation it's a definite advantage best pitch by far. Cheers the Rattler
