KPMG
FC 2 - 0 O' Flynn's Flooring
This game was a highly charged match with plenty of tomfoolery and
profound language especially from the one they call "HORSE". Even
with all his backchat during the game it must be said that his work rate was that
of a “horse”. His tracking back and attacking aggression would have impressed
even the great Roy Keane. The first incident of the game
about 10-15 minutes in the first half when KPMG's left back
"Skinny" pulled a muscle in his groin area but braved on for a few
minutes (try lacing his boots) until the pain was too much to bear. On came
"Bergkamp" to put in a fine performance. The back four have to be given a big WELL DONE WELL DONE for their
efforts that as in every game were second to none. The first goal of the game
was one more typically associated with that of Selhurst Park. A rocket
launcher of a goal kick from "Barthez" was taken down expertly by
Mark "Hega " Hegarty who played a sublime ball to the feet of
Malley-Sutton who with his killer instincts, which were lacking in recent
weeks due to confidence, fired an unstoppable shot past the stranded Flynns
keeper. The half time team talk was unfamiliar to the KPMG squad as this had
been the first time in as many games that they were leading at half time. The second half started the same as the first half with both teams
playing at a fast pace and attacking their opponents’ goal with every
possible opportunity. O' Flynn's started the brighter and had the first
chance on goal in the 2nd half. The ball was played cross field at the edge
of KPMG's box and was beautifully controlled by their forward. He volleyed a
thunderous shot, which was left by "Barthez" who knows his area
well, the ball flew off the top of the cross-bar and over for a goal kick. The language in this game was worse than any Eminem record that the
referee duly took on board when he awarded a free kick inside the KPMG box
for the foul tongues of the KPMG defence and midfield. This had to be retaken
because of "Horses" refusal to take the refs advice to shut up. In truth the ref gave KPMG nothing during the game. The whole team
must of felt they got their justice when the best shot of the game was
blasted from Vincent Harrington directly into the referees face. In must be
said a slight smile appeared on Barthez's face. The second goal was on that could appear on any football comedy video.
The ball was played through the heart of the Flynn's defence and the
defender did his best to clear the ball only to see it come back off the
outstretched leg of "Briano". The ball flew up and over the
bewildered keeper and into the back of the net. There was a lot of laughter
within the celebration of the goal. With minutes to go the Flynn's forward started to try their luck and
took shots from all angles only to find "Barthez" in sparkling
form. With a shot heading for the bottom left corner (and not wide as Niall
Barrett suggested afterwards) Barthez pulled off a miraculous save to have
another clean sheet in his many games. A great game for the neutral, although if you didn't follow either teams you wouldn't have bothered to show up. |
