Saturday 13th Feb Home vs Freeland W 3-1

The gods have finally started to smile upon the Blues. Another close match ended with Cumnor running away with the match in the final ten minutes.

In the first half Cumnor had the better of the possession but were finding it difficult to create chances against the meanest defence in this league. Freeland were playing on the break and eventually found the back of the net with a well worked move.

For the second week running, the half time swap around worked wonders, and with Charlie dropping back into defence, Edward switching to midfield, and Louie playing the lone man up front, Cumnor started to create chances. The first goal came after about 5 minutes of the second half, with Edward playing a ball across for Louie to finish.

After that it was a nail biting 5-10 minutes where the game could have gone either way. However with legs tiring, Louie began to find space, and netted his second with about 5 minutes to go, and finally getting his hattrick in the 90th minute (well 40th actually).

A great game, and great performances from everyone in the team.

Man of the match for the second week in a row: Louie.

In the second game, with Louie and Isaac having to leave, we expected another close match. However a surge of confidence let Cumnor run away with an 8-0 victory (Joel 4, Ben 2, Charlie, Lewis). The manager will consider the new 5-0-1 formation.

Man of the match to Ben for his two goals. Joel will have to score 5 next week, and he can then have it.
