Week 11 (14/6/08)
SCORERS : Alex Szanto, Andrew Meikle (3), Own goal (Maddison Hardy)
Another win – when will it ever end? A very high scoring game, 5-3 over Thornleigh. This is the first time we have played this team as our first match with them was washed out. They proved to be very worthy opponents even though they are in second last position on the table. It all started out very well with Andrew scoring the first goal and then Maddison assisted in the opposition scoring an own goal and rounded off with Alex scoring making it 3 nil. Perhaps we then let our guard down as Thornleigh managed to put away 2 goals in a row, finishing up 3-2 at half time.
Back on the pitch for the second half saw Thornleigh put away a third goal – we were 3 all and could hardly believe it. This went on for the most of the second half with both teams vying to score the 4th and winning goal. It seemed like an eternity but at long last Andrew came through with the goal we needed to put us one ahead and then, just seconds before the whistle blew, he managed one more to secure the match. It was an amazing game considering we were down 4 players due to illness and also considering how cold it was and how tired the boys must have been with no time off the pitch. Zechariah took a big boot to his knee, but to his credit he continued to play when he probably should have come off to recover, this and great play earned him Man of the Match this week.
