Next round here we come
We was away today at new river the same pitch / facilities of last weeks Game we was all on a downer before the match after our recent abandoned game it was very hard to get motivated as we felt cheated but we still thought we could get the win . We started off sloppy going 1-0 down and couldnt get going but we rallied back finding a extra gear and went ahead 2-1 before it being 2-2 and again taking the lead going in at half time 3-2 . We have a good team talk and kept positive the bad feelings pre-match were out of our system . We start the second half on fire going up 5.2 .all was good up until the last 15 mins we had 2 bad injuries ( hamstring and groin ) so only had 10 players on the pitch alexandra park come back 5-5 crazy game with the injuries hurting us . Extra time we end up pulling away eventually winning 7-5 . We ain’t experienced extra time before but we showed fight and determination and character we have all said going to 5-5 from a winning position was the best thing to happen to us we showed great fight . Last weeks terrible match now behind us we keep on going and improving . Well done Bilal Patel on 3 goals well done to Stevie bull 2 goals on his debut 1 from 35 yards into the top corner not bad for a player who hasn’t played for 4 years Motm - habib brilliant today best individual performance this season so far
