Game 5 (3/5/08)
SCORERS: Montgomery (2), Wengi
Some adjustments were made to the lineup to incorporate a stronger defensive objective. This saw Monty and Nathan join the central defense, and with their height and aerial capabilities, stopped any real goal scoring chances early. The lads kept the ball on the ground and knocked it around to create two superb goals for Monty, and a third which was somehow called offside. We should have held this lead into halftime, but some sloppy clearing saw then get one back for a well deserved 2-1 lead. Second half continued where we left off, with some excellent passages of play. Simmo was having to work hard in goals as they pressed for an equalizer. Kyle and Al got forward well to support Chris, however it was David’s inclusion that saw the final pass for Josh to get his first for the year and put the game beyond their reach. Strong defense today was the key, with Nathan best on the field and Simmo again proving his reliability in goals.
