Poco 3 - GEU 2 In what was/will most likely the MOTW.
First half was played fairly tight, GEU opened with a few chances but we couldnt put anything away. Cucca opened the scoring at about the 35min mark with a cheeeeky goal. Corner of the 18 and a well placed floater into the far topshelf. Second half and Poco came flying out of the gates, and there were some flashes of what they could be. 10 mins into the second and Masi played a nice through ball into TK who had no problems finishing in close range. They scored again quickly after on a free quick (#19?) that appeared to go through our wall, but it was struck well. After that Poco left off the gas a little bit and GEU took a bit of control. We got one back at about the 70min mark with a cross that was finished well by Jonny Craig. We kept applying pressure and were awarded again with a magic goal from Giordan Payne, who IMO was our man of the match. We then were awarded a PK with about 85' mark, Maloney guessed right and we lost our chance to even it up.
All in all I think it was probably a good game to watch, as both teams tried to play it on the deck, and there wasnt too much humping. TA has a good crew there, and Harmse coming into action in the next week or so will make a huge difference.
Fcuk me, off to Naniamo for our Pacific Cup game on Saturday....
