Man Utd NZ vs East Coast Bays

been 48 hours now,

but I still feel gutted.

Man Utd NZ vs Takapuna

The day broke cold and cloudy and everyone was wondering whether we would get the game over before the forecasted rain would let loose. First to greet everyone was Mike, old ex captain and one time referee, the lads slowly drifted in and then to this hippys delight, the west auckland youth turned up !

Man Utd NZ took the field, with Jan in goal, Nick, Lionel, Ken, Shaw in defence, Skip, Mike, Lee and Karl in midfield, with young Hayden and Luke up front.  Dan, Phil, Harry and Marc were on the sideline.

The game kicked off and it was the Old Farts that got the first goal, stunning the Red Army, but two minutes later and it was all on, as the Reds scored three goals in the next 15 minutes and got one more before halftime.

The writing was on the wall and Takapuna tried to get us to slow down, but we were having none of it. Jan managed to get out of goal, but Dan was far superior anyhow and the word was to just destroy the Old Farts, as they had done to us on more than one occasion. And thats exactly what happened as Hayden swept thru the Takapuna defensive line, setting up goals everywhere and with Skip feeding all and sundry from the right, it was how many, not when. Mike scored a cracker, Karl got another and Hayden was just unstoppable ...

This was very similar to the game a month back, when KJs boys and Hayden destroyed Takapuna, 8-0, but this was better, as everyone fed off the youth of Hayden, Skips speed, Mikes cool head in the middle and a rock solid defence.

Just magic ...
