Luckwell v St Mary Redcliffe
13th March
Luckwell played league leaders Redcliffe in a double header. Both teams knew that it was an important game and the Redcliffe players were very vocal about the fact they were going to win the league.
Luckwell began the game with an excellent attitude and immediately started to dominate the game. The midfield took control and soon started to create chances, but the Redcliffe keeper made a few timely saves.
After a bit of pressure the ball fell to Louis who calmly slotted the ball into the back of the net. The Luckwell defence were ready to defend but were never really threatened in the first half and Mo hardly touched the ball.
Ten minutes into the game George got the ball in his own half and slid a perfect pass up the pitch. Jack hit it first time doubled Luckwell’s lead. For the second game running Luckwell were awarded a penalty and for the second game running we missed it (we must change our penalty taker).
At half time Luckwell were leading 2-0 and readied themselves for considerable pressure as Redcliffe attempted to save the game. Fortunately the expected pressure never came and our defence hardly broke sweat. Jack scored his second of the game after a fantastic run and then George finally had a bit of luck. After seeing 2 tremendous shots and a penalty saved earlier in the game he then scored a hat-trick in less than 5 minutes.
Well done boys for a fantastic display from every player.
Thanks to Fred and Leigh for refereeing.
