Afternoon all. Another excellent performance from the Hunters with a 2-0 win vs the Baldock Lancers. The Lancers set out to play a direct physical game and Kian had to make some vital saves with the defence stretched at times. It took a while for the Hunters to get a grip on the game but slowly they started to exert their slicker football on the match. A wonderful from Alex B put Monty through who showed total composure to slide it past the keeper for a one-two with the post and slotted it home. 1-0 at halftime playing into the wind/sun and up the slope was a good performance.
The Lancers went even more direct and physical but the Hunters battled hard to win the ball and pass around and through them. Alex B found space on the left and after a string run rifled a left footer into the top bin. A great goal and exactly what they deserved. It was a very sunny and warm day and the midfield put in an unbelievable shift to keep the Lancers at arm’s length. There was time for chances on either end but the game finished comfortably enough for 2-0.
Any complaints about the ref please message me directly. Thank you Stu.
