KPMG
FC 2 – 2 Raging Bulls
This was definitely a game of two parts. The first 55 minutes and the
last 5. Raging Bulls had most of the possession in the game and this showed by
the amount of chances they created in the first half. The KPMG midfield were in
La-La land for most of the game and certainly didn’t play anywhere near their
potential. This let the Bulls play aggressive football. The first goal of the game came from a defensive lapse in
concentration and the Bulls forward, sporting an Inter shirt, beat the
offside trap laid down by KPMG to creep in to the back post. As Gregson
scrambled to make up ground the Bulls forward was able to get the slightest
of touches to the ball to steer it past the KPMG keeper. KPMG didn’t have any real clear-cut chances in the first half and by
this performance deserved to trail 1-0 at half time. The second half started pretty much as the first had finished with
Raging Bulls dominating the possession in the middle of the park. Once again
the defensive offside trap failed and the Bulls winger was able to get a
cross into the KPMG goalmouth area. A wondering Declan Hegarty left the Bulls
“Ronaldo” free in the centre of the box. As the out swinging cross came in,
the giant forward towered above the rest to place a header past the KPMG
keeper who really had no chance. Gregsons kick-outs were deeply criticised in the first half and most
of the second but it was his poor kicking that left Hega to cushion a header
to Vince who was able to generate a pass, splitting the Bulls defence, into
the path of Briano. He then played a cross-field ball passed the outreached
Bulls keeper and left Thomas the easiest of finishes. The spirit of the KPMG side was boosted by that goal and they felt
that there was another one in the bag and they were right. The goal game from a brilliant run down
the line by Vince who unbelievably, by amateurs standard, was able to whip in
a cross. On the end of the cross was the chest of Brendan Hegarty who flicked
it past the wandering Bulls keeper. Earlier in the season the Bulls game from 1-0 down to beat KPMG 2-1 so
I feel as though they got their revenge. Not a spectacular game of football
but won enjoyed by the crowd. |
