two-nine and gomesy, thank you for offering to write match reports after each of your games, it is much appreciated!
You're a tad bit tardy on this weekend's submission?
Cheers,
Regs.
You're right Regs. Here's my report:
Delta 2
Columbus 1
No scoring in the first half. No real chances for either team. Steve Frazao scored the game's opening goal on a nice header. The ball was crossed from the right wing to the far post and Fraz headed it back across the goal and into the low right corner. We started pushing after that and were rewarded with a goal off of a scrambled corner. JB's original kick was blocked at the first post. It rolled back to him and JB shot it low and on net from an acute angle where it was cleared off the line. Lucky for us, Shawn Blakeway was there to slot in the rebound. It looked like we were headed for a tie game, which would have been a fair result for both teams, when Steve London's bomb of a punt was headed back towrds his own goal by Tony Gaita. Unfortunately for Tony, he didn't notice that Blakeway gambled on that happening and it paid off with a brakeaway from 25 yards out. Shawn calmly placed the ball under the Lindley for the 2-1 lead. We held Columbus off for the final 9 minutes to earn the 3 points. We heard rumblings that perhaps the keeper had called for Gaita to head it back to him. Either way, it was a mistake by them and we were able to capitalize.
