Good morning guys
Well the first game of the season has come and gone. Just a few things to work on for our next game on Friday.
1. I do realise I said kill them. But next time could you guys remember how many and how you scored. It really does make writing the match report rather difficult.
2. Lets not order a platter then not eat it.
3. And lets do what we can to keep Import in the 2s…..too soon?
17 October 2011
Venue: Wynberg Military Base
Opponents: DFM Legends
With the two new additions to the side Suffix and Drummond, we knew our side was going to be stronger than last year. Thankfully losing Bollie ‘to injury’ and eventually finalising Imports registration papers for Durbanville we were looking forward to this build up to our league indoor season.
Well where do we start. It seemed inevitable what the end result was going to be, so being the nice guy that I am, I allowed DFM (we not going to call them legends) to win the toss. They asked for the ball which was a good thing so that they could get used to it as they would be doing it a lot this match. Also it gave them a bit of possession.
We started off scrappy Drummond caned a ball onto Vis’ foot which im sure he was still feeling well into the second half. However we had our first opportunity of the match, the ball being slipped to Vis. Who obviously wanted it to be more of a tough match, so he pushed it well wide of the goal…..DFM with a hit in from the sideline.
Drummond got to the stage where he thought enough was enough and we should get on the scoreboard as soon as possible. A well worked move with a few 1-2s and he calmly slipped the ball into the net. 1-0 to MCPUT. Shortly after we won our first penalty corner, being a great leader and a generally nice guy I gave the first shorty to the new cap. Who really, just showing off, smashed the ball top right. I swear I heard the keeper shit himself. 2-0
A little more possession from a much superior mutual side and we worked a ball nicely down our left side winning a hit just outside the circle. Tosser seeing a great run from Boogies into space, seemed to drag flick the ball into a DFM chest. Don’t ask me I still don’t know what happened. But I think that was the only decent flick I had the whole game, well besides the warm up. Hungry for a goal I decided to make an executive decision and take the next short corner. Which was probably a stupid idea, the keeper not smelling the ball which hit him on the shoulder and off the post. Luckily we won another corner. Which I was then forced to give to Hernandez, who coolly slotted the ball to the right sending the keeper the wrong way. 3-0
Some good play finding Tosser on the edge of the D, seeing Boogies make one of the slowest runs iv ever seen (Weighless could have beaten him) finally making it into our half of the field. Boogies getting slipped the ball by Tosser and finishing well…..into the side of the net.lol
This is where things started to get tricky for me with the scoring, even thou I was playing some of my best hockey sitting next to Spur on the side. Pretty sure Drummond scored another short corner drag, giving him a first half hatrick. 4-0. Then senior mexicano with his second goal of the game after some quick passes, Bob with a easy tap in in the end. 5-0
And that was the end of the half. DFM running off the field to run Voltaren and ice on their arseholes.
And the second half started. Again Vis and I had some amazing spells in the first 5 min, sitting next to each other talking kak. Suffix I think scored a short corner. 6-0. Like I said after the 3rd goal things got kinda hazy. Drummond then stepped up for another short corner, and what can only be described as childish, screamed one past the keepers head crashing into the crossbar with no chance of stopping it….or seeing it. The keeper resoaked his gurdle. 7-0. Then Pablo Hernandez instead of just admitting he was tired and coming off the field, he deliberately uses the back of his stick to play the ball. Completely shocking and his disciplinary meeting will be held at Red Ox soon. Well after Bryce Lawrence sent Bob off, the 2 experienced players made their way onto the field.
After dominating for pretty much the whole game the moral of the DFM was fading fast, but a plus for them is they had a bit of possession….having to centre off 6 times. But their day was not going to get any better. A ball was smashed into the D at pace, Vis getting a great touch on it to send it blitzing past the keepers head. 8-0
Then Bondi trying to win his first cap for the 1s makes a darting run down our left side. No one really noticing him. Shortly after we got another short corner which bob slotted after the german. 9-0
Vis then got another after “scribblimg at least 7 players” the DFM defence had stopped playing while Vis made great use of the advantage and basically dribbling the ball over the line to give us out 10th goal.
In a moment of pure madness Pablo found himself at full speed, which has never been reached before, stretching to pick the ball up. He ran so fast we all thought he was swimming. But nothing came of that move. His effort was duly noted and we all expect this type of speed from him in the future. Not likely thou.
I’m sure the next goal was a short corner drag flick again from Drummond. 11-0
And we pretty sure he scored another but not sure where it happened. Lets just give the guy a double hatrick of debut. 12-0
Sterling performance lads. Brundle having washed off all the Velcro and glue from the head of his stick played a great game. Passing the ball well paired with Boogs who was solid in defense.
Great first game of the season. I’m sure the opposition will only get tougher.
Final Score Mutual 12 – 0 DFML (That’s right D…………FML)
Complete shut out, no goals, no short corners.
For those of you that stayed and watched the game it looks like York is going to be a physical encounter….yes please.
Next Game:
Tuesday 25th @ 20h10 vs Conberg
Please confirm availability,
Yours in awesomeness
Tosser
