4-4 thriller against top of the league

Everyone was feeling the buzz for this game and the sunshine just made it a perfect setting. With the boys knowing how important this game was they came flying out the traps. We had great controll of the game, with the help of the wind and had most of the possession. There was lots of good play out on the wings with hills and butcher. Midfield had great possession with mehangue and chan. We knew it was going to be a tough one but being the better team it wasn't long before butcher put us 1-0 up. It needed a solid defence to keep Hendon at bay and as always lumley, Taylor and Patel continued to keep the attacks at bay. If any chances fit past them an outstanding boulder was there to keep them out of the net. As play continued in our favour against a physical side it wasn't long before butcher bagged his second and giving us a 2-0 lead.
After a water break, we continued playing great football, the passing was solid and the crosses perfect. Paul going one on one with the defender saw us going in at half time 3-0 up.
Second half and the wind was against us. With maimon and bowey on the boys just had to keep their lead. It was a bit harder, Hendon wanted to play the long ball game and with a bit of luck it came if the post to make it 3-1. It continued to be a bit of struggle but still some great chances with a few shots being saved and just going over. He did second goal came from an error and an easy chance to make it 3-2.
The boys were still pressing and mehenge made a great run through the park to make it 4-2
We found ourselves defending for the last part of the match. An unfortunate handball in our area gave Hendon a penalty and smashing it in the back of the net.
One more goal from Hendon made it 4-4. In all fairness a really great game against a top of the league side we held our own and proved we deserve to be in 2nd place in the table
Great game that our boys played
MN if the match
