Venue: Away
Referee:

Our cup form reared its head again with a strong win against an oppo that never gave up.

The started badly with our keeper failing to show. This meant that Nick Lewis, coming along for the first time season after injury to watch the game filled in in goal.

We started the game and went on the offesive straight away. Our ball retention and incisive passing was god and we got a rythym about our play which made the oppo work hard to contain us.

We soon went one up when a cross from Yannick resulted in the keeper spilling the ball and Antonio Azevedo followed up and rounded the keeper and passed the ball into the net. The second goal came with a cross from Bobby Clarke which saw debutant Chad ghost in and nod the ball in at the back post.

We were in control and cruising after 30 minutes. Then from our corner they raced up the pitch and got a goal back. Then 5 minutes later a loose ball was not dealt with and te young quick strikers of the oppos pounced and broke on our goal - 2-2.

This was gutting and they took the initiative for the final 5 minutes of the half.

We regrouped at half time and started better in the second half. Chad hit a low drive from the edge of the area into the net, following some good link up play in the final 3rd. The game ebbed and flowed as the Tifiinians started gambling and pushing more players forward. We had a few scares from fast breaks but Nick Lewis and defence held firm. Our 4th goal came from a difficult to defend against lobbed free kick from Bobby Clarke which stood up up at the back post and Severen Kenk ghosted in and deftly headed the ball over the keeper and back across the goal: 4 - 2.

Our 5th goal came from some more pressure which resulted Antonio calmly shooting past the keeper from close range.

It was a good team performance with people working hard for each other to dominate the game. Now we need to carry this form into the league.
