Saint Hill Blues 2 Hawks Youth Withdean 9
Two excellent early strikes set tone for game,but scoreline a little harsh
Oilver P again picked up keepers gloves, but two excellent early goals from the visitors, one a stunning volley from outside the box put us on the back foot. Greg scored midway through the first half and had we held out to go in only 1-3 down at half time the match may have ended closer, but we conceded two more goal before the interval following our failure to pick up players from set pieces
For the first period of the second half it was honours even, but from misplaced passes Hawks Youth stole possession and punished us with further goals. Ashley was pulled down as he turned in the box and Nick converted the penalty, but the game was up and we look forward to future games. Sean was man of the match for a strong performance at right back, winning the ball is not enough and collectively we must learn to retain possession and work the opposition as much as they work us!
