Olympique LMB 8 vs 0 MEFF #19

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">A fairly lacklustre MEFF ended with a sound drubbing for Griffin&rsquo;s a Master Tactician FC (who probably lost because they had no team identity to bond them, hence this made-up name!) A noticeable difference in pace proved the real difference as one team counter-attacked at will, while the other was reluctant to commit men forward.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">As it produced results the week before, winning Captain Pete&rsquo;s masterful tactic of letting everyone else in No Likey, No Lighty defend and counter-attack while he goal-hung worked beautifully as he was involved in all 7 of his team&rsquo;s goals, helped by some sloppy defending in the first half, while Steels made some great saves to further exasperate the toiling opposition, who also watched debutant Ash hit the post from a penalty which could&rsquo;ve made a big difference at 2-0.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">1-0: Pete(Kieran intercepted a misjudged pass from Patto, and rolled the ball to Pete in space, who made no mistake from close range)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">2-0: Fletch(another pass was blocked, allowing Pete to square the ball for a simple finish)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">3-0:Pete (shrugged off the challenges to finish under Rowan)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">4-0:Daz (Pete was released down the right wing, and he squared the ball to Daz who finished from a tight angle with a far post flick)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">Half Time

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">4-1:Patto (took down Griffin&rsquo;s raking clearance and smashed the ball low into the bottom right corner)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">5-1:Pete (great work from Fletch in the area finally allowed Pete to shoot through a crowded box into the net &ndash; HAT TRICK)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">6-1:Crozier (persistent play from Pete presented Crozier with a shooting chance which deflected in off Spence&rsquo;s back)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt;">7-1:Pete (intercepted a misjudged back-pass from Ash and curled in from close range with the last kick of the game)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">&nbsp;

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Pete was the obvious choice for MOM on the winning team, and grabs his second 10/10 performance in consecutive weeks as he &ldquo;completely dominated the game&rdquo;.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Griffin gets the bonus MOM point for the losing team &ldquo;for his pass to Patto for the goal. It was nice.&rdquo; Apparently it hurt Pete to admit that.
