REMEMBER the SIX ...... !
A low turnout today, couldn't stop the Red Machine turning it on against the pros of East Coast Bays.
In a breath-taking opening twenty minutes United went up one-nil, a sensational goal from Mikey, and just missed three more.
While they admired our resoluteness for playing with low numbers, they were simply stunned by our ball movement. But those misses came back to haunt us as late in the half, Baldy got away twice from our great defence and scored both times.
Into the second and we carried on playing superb football looking for that equaliser, time and again the ball just went over the crossbar as we completely flustered their defence. They got a very lucky penalty and their goalie trotted all the way down the pitch to just edge it past Jan in goal. We were straight back on attack and at least three or four went just over the top and two more shots hit the crossbar ! So unbeliveably we had totally out played them, but our failure to hit the net, saved them from a historic defeat.
Thanks to Mike T, Grant, Wes, Jan, Phil M for playing and Mel and friend for the fantastic support.
Brilliant game.
