Match Report
With four players missing for this Merit Shield game we were always going to be up against it but a dreadful start saw us 2-0 down within ten minutes. A freak third goal where the ball hit a hole in the pitch and shot into the roof of the net seemed to signal the end. At half-time we spoke about the importance of salvaging some pride and how important it was to ensure we kept battling to get back in the game. It was a much better performance in the second period and after we got two late goals the opposition were visibly panicking for the last few minutes as we gave them a real fright. All credit to the lads for the second half display, especially as we couldn't give too many players a rest as we only had one subst itute.
