Hants Cup game away to Waterlooville : I struggled to get a team together for this fixture what with injuries and lads being called into work at the last minute left me short had to go with 10 out field players and 2 goal keepers.
This was going to be a very good lesson for our young lads and I hope they now appreciate how good we have things at HWFC and the league we play in. The game started at a frantic pace on a very hot afternoon but the playing surface was quite good for a school pitch
we just could not keep hold of the ball they kept coming at us and after about 18 minutes we went 1 - 0 down we got through the 1st half but we looked like we were down and out of it. All I could do was to change a few of the positions around not having any fresh legs to put on, 2nd half started and within the 1st minute we found ourselves 2 - 0 down 51 minutes 3 - 0 down and 75 minutes 4 - 0 down and not looking good but for some reason the lads picked the tempo of the game up and started to create chances their hard work paid off on the 81st minute and Tom smashed his shot into the net 4 -1 three minutes later Chris S = Lloyd hit a rocket shoot that flew into the net 4 -2 we were on a roll but running out of time chances came and went for us we kept pushing and Rafa got our 3rd 4-3 they kicked off and the ref blew his whistle game over. This was certainly a tough game, one in which I have learned a great deal about my players we can use this as part of our development as a team and again push on from it, the lads worked hard for each other on a very hot afternoon and if we did have them fresh legs we might of got somthing from the game unlucky lads - Jamie
