Home league match
What a start!
Joe got the Emperors flying this morning like all good penguins know they can with a goal in the first minute. Shawside equalised nearly as quickly though.
The game settled into a good battle with West playing the better football. And they got their rewards with another goal for Joe, a lovely team goal from Bodhi and two from Ibrahim. Assists coming from all over the pitch.
After the first break Shawside subbed on a giant and West seemed to stand off (and lose any sense of position). 5 conceded to go into this break 6-5 down.
Team talks seemed to work for West (well done me ??). Ibrahim and Joe came out flying again and put us into a narrow lead. TENSION!! Several minutes of battles and Shawside pressure and they scored to bring the game level 7-7.
Harley (unhappy at being subbed earlier) came on with a few mins left. Simple instruction of “score a goal Harley”.
Austin on to a Ibrahim pass, finds Harley in the box. GOOOOAAAALLLLAAHHH!!
8-7 the final score.
Well played boys!! With Matty Cook in attendance it was good to show him what we expect from the seniors later.
