MEADOW YOUTH     3

FOCUS FERRERS HAWKS 0

With the Hawks away again we faced a very good Meadow side,after a dodgy start to the season the hawks had found there feet against some good opposition and were ready for the challenge of meadow...........

The Hawks got the game underway and were going toe to toe with Meadow neither side giving an inch, Meadow had a few sighter's at goal early door's but just could not breach the Hawks goal, Jack and bran in the midfield worked well as a pair and Bren up front was getting stuck in, The Hawks found it hard going to penetrate the Meadow back line but gave it all , Meadow got the breakthrough on 15 mins with a great in swinging corner and the Hawks just could not clear seeing the Meadow player poking the ball home 1 0 Meadow, The Hawks kept battling and could of equlised from a David run down the wing crossing only for Charles to see his first time effort go just wide, Meadow were pressing and from a got there 2nd of the game from there impresive number 5 hitting a high lofty shot just over the jumping Jimbo 2 0 Meadow , the Hawks kept going but just could not find the killer ball needed to unlock the Meadow defence, Meadow could of gone 3 up just b4 Halftime but a shot from there number 9 cannoned of the post across the goal line "over" no the ref gave the saving Jimbo the benefit of the doubt great call Halftime 2 0 Meadow......

The second half started with Meadow determined to increase there advantage and with two minutes gone found themselfs 3 0 up with another in swinging corner the Hawks just seemed to watch and the Meadow player smashed in , The Hawks last year would of gone to pieces but now have a great resiliance and so it showed, the Hawks again kept pushing forward and were unlucky on a couple of occasions not to score but it seemed they had left there shooting boot's at home , at the other end Jimbo came of his line to foil the Meadow striker a clash between Jimbo and the striker saw the striker given a pen, Harsh but thats football ! Meadow striker steps up and hit's a lovely shot only to see it cannon off the upright and into Jimbo's hands, not Knowing this b4 the pen and the ever tough Jimbo keeping stum Jimbo had hurt his hand in the collision for the pen . unable to carry on Jimbo had to come off seeing 3 rd change in keeper by the Hawks this season with Ronnie now taking the gloves....

The Hawks turned up the pressure and should of had a pen of there own when a Bren goal bound effort hit a Meadow hand not given, still they kept going and created a few chances to get a goal but were just not firing today, Full time 3 0 Meadow .....

This was a better performance by the Hawks this time around but were up against probaly one of the best teams in the Crouch division and at times play a great passing game, never the less the |Hawks battled throughout and if they show this much determination in there other games they wont be far off...

Man of the match this week went to our very own WASPY who was everywere and could of on another occasion bagged himself a few goals WELL DONE JACK you da man !!!!!! The score was 0-3.
