It felt good to get revenge on a team that had previously beaten us earlier in the season, especially after they mocked it as they walked off after winning. To knock five past the only team that has stopped us scoring so far, lovely!
Our Wizard wasn't available but in stepped El Capitano, back down from Scotland to put in a shift for us. The game was also an introduction for new signing Jason.
We took the lead instantly when Jamie's corner was able to go all the way, their keeper being impeded by their own player meant he was unable to get anywhere near it, a perfect start!
Lively play between the attackers was great to watch and a short while later Sam placed a through ball to Matt who was able to lob the keeper for our second. Lions had their chances but Dave was able to pull off some fantastic saves keeping it at 2-0, HT.
Jay's debut got off to a lightning start! Bill fizzed in a free kick that can only be compared to one of Beckham's, placing it straight on to Jay's head for our third - What a start!
Lions grabbed one back when they reacted quickest to a second ball in the box but it wasn't long before Joe was able to break down his full back and deliver a great cross for Matt to head in for our fourth and his second.
Good pressing play from our front four lead to an own goal from Lions, not long before they were awarded a soft penalty, which they just about converted.
It was great to play Lions on a pitch that had width this time and it sure showed! 5-2, FT. UTC! ??
