Downfield Amateurs

We start ok and have a good chance when Jayden puts it just past the post.
We have another good chance just before HT when Woodsy is put through, but keeper makes a good save.

Into 2nd half and we say not to give away anything stupid, but that’s exactly what we do, getting ourselves into a right mess and The Dundee west player scores easily.
Tayhler then has a couple of saves to keep us in it.
We think we are back level but Cole headers wide from point blank.
We get an equaliser when a long ball puts Finlay in and he makes no mistake.

Game ends 1-1 and that’s probably the right result.

We are looking disjointed, 3 players playing for the first time for us today and another 3 playing their first game of the season. Not the free flowing stuff we are used to but boys dug in again after giving away a terrible goal.

Boys are dropping out left, right and centre so it’s a number of changes again.
We start well and get the breakthrough when Kieron takes a good touch, the defence seems to part and he just bursts through and hits a great shot into the net.
Paddy has to replace the injured Cole after 20 mins and when the defence doesn’t deal with Struan’s ball, Paddy hits an absolute rocket into the top corner with his first touch.
A couple of minutes later we throw it into Finlay, who takes a touch and fires it into the corner.

The boys are warned that this isn’t over at HT and to go and get the next goal.
Boars have us pegged back and there is a load of long throws and free kicks into our box, but we are dealing well with them.
It looks like we have weathered the storm when we give the ball away and the Boars player hits a cracker from 30 yards into the top corner.

It’s back to balls into our box again and we are dealing well with them, Finlay clears one and is smashed for his troubles, no foul is given and Boars end up with a corner, we have a few boys in the area where the ball is but no one attacks it and Boars bundle it home.

Lack of numbers have been killing us all season and the boys playing are out on their feet but they show some mettle to see the game out and get the 3 points.

Really good first half, but from a footballing point of view, second half wasn’t great from us at all, couldn’t keep the ball and was panic stations at times. Great effort from the boys though, had to win some amount of balls in our own box as we couldn’t get anything to stick at the other end.

Hoping to see some more faces back to training this week.

Edited to say HUGE thanks to Niamh for pulling us out the s**t, when we didn’t have the balls ❤️

Up to 70 in now, looking for more. 👍

It’s a game of few chances but we lose a goal just before half time when a shot from outside the box takes a slight deflection and loops over Tayhler into the net.
We are trying to get back in the game but not getting any clear cut chances, with time running out the ball drops to woody a couple of yards out but he can’t he get it out his feet and the chance is gone. Can’t fault the boys for effort again but a lack of cutting edge in the final 3rd sees us lose out.
