Match Report 27 November 2008

A cracking 6 players v 6 players match tonight.

A very even contest ended in a hard-fought 9-9 draw.

Merrick, Ben, David, Roy, Andrew and Yusuf oozed quality all over the park. When they weren't making surging runs forward, they were marshalling their defensive forces with admirable discipline.

It would be tempting to say that last week's man of the match Dwayne dominated the other side's performance with his lethal finishing being responsible for 7 of the 9 goals. However, in truth it was a great team performance from Dwayne, Paul, Graeme, Luke, Tim and Danny.

With so many sparkling performances (including a noteworthy spell in goal from Luke that probably saved his side a few goals and therefore the match) it is an invidious task to pick a man of the match, however, needs must, and this week, the coveted title goes to Merrick, who demonstrated all the qualities of a midfield general akin to an amalgam of Ces Fabregas, Colin Bell and Alan Ball.
