Back in the purple and under the lights. The Frothers were out well past bedtime against more mullets and mos than a XXXX tent at a beer festival.
The Camaradas came out strong in the first half and controlled the game. Though not having too many good opportunities, with the Frothers unable to hold on to possession the Camaradas were able to finally make the pressure count, forcing two errors from the Frothers’ back-line.
0-2
The Frothers’ best opportunities came from letting the opposition defence have enough rope to hang themselves. But nothing else came from the first half.
A change of tactics was needed and Frothers captain Chris could be seen sneaking away to do some improvements to the match balls…
Soon into the second half Aaron was able to catch a cocky RB off balance and able to hit dipping volley on the turn just over the keeper’s reach.
1-2
The Camaradas managed to pick themselves up and find another two goals from well constructed attacks.
1-4
The Frothers weren’t done, though. A well placed corner from Evan forced an error out of the keeper that feel kindly to Lance’s feet 1 metre out from goal. Shooting with his back to goal and through the men.
2-4
The boys were on a roll and some beautiful play followed with Yash and Evan linking up before delivering a perfect low cross for Aaron to stride on to and finish confidently to get his second.
3-4
Sadly that was the end of the dream, as Camaradas waited approximate 3 seconds to score.
Dual award this week as both Aaron and Evan did very well to contribute to the Frothers’ goals, and kept going throughout the game.
Losing the Frothers best match-ball before the match is a sure-fire way to book your spot in DoTD. Milan is making his name as the most mercurial Frother.
Luckily the new balls have shown up.
