Slazengers 4s continued their campaign away at Lindum 7th’s in a tight encounter. It was a very tense first half with many short corners going Lindums way but were very well defended by Slaz. At half time both teams were positive and were wanting to score that crucial first goal which may win them the game. Lindum had a very good shout for a goal but was disallowed as the shot came from outside the circle so Slaz remained with a clean sheet.
Eventually the pressure became too much as Lindum scored a lucky goal with a deflected shot which lobbed goalkeeper Dan Alderson to take the lead. After Slaz began to create chances but discipline was lacking as Sam Haigh, Ben Stevenson and Josh Dunstan were all in the sin bin at different intervals for not retreating 5 yards from the ball which made it even harder for the greens. In the last two minutes Slaz pulled one back with a brilliant strike from Neil Stacey to even the game up.
The greens could’ve had another with the final whistle being blown as Slaz were about to shoot at goal to end the game. A very fair result and man of the match goes to goal scorer Neil Stacey to round off a great performance but also the midfield of Sam Haigh, Chris Gascgoine and debutant Harry Lumb produced solid showings.
