Report: 24-01-2015 – Mens 5th’s (2) vs. (2) Lincoln 5th’s

by

After a long trip to Lincoln we went one down in the first half despite a lot of possession.

The second half saw the team come out determined to enjoy their hockey and applied lots of pressure in the opposition D. Great wide play by all and passing caused enough pressure for a short corner converted to a goal with a drag flick by Matty Chilton. More pressure, team work and possession saw a well worked goal taken by Tristan Whittle.

Unfortunately despite all the ball we got caught on the break to draw 2-2. Great team progress and effort by ALL.

On a snowy and wintery day Slazengers Development team travelled to Sheffield Hallam HC.

A very close game followed and despite several chances Slazengers were unable to score past a large adult keeper.  On one of the oppositions attacks which was well executed they managed to get their goal.

As Slazenger piled on the pressure and having most of the second half possession and territory we could not find the equaliser.  Very tough conditions, well done team.

Man of Match Sam Haigh.

A very determined and disciplined team performance saw Slazengers Development team beat a skilful and well organised Sheffield Hallam Development team.

Great teamwork was evident throughout and saw Sam Haigh and Josh Swallow score the two goals after good Slazenger build up play. Mattie Chilton (man of the match) had a great work rate and control in the centre of the pitch. Ben Stevenson in defence kept attacks at bay.

A great team win 2-1.
