Match report

The pitch was in great shape and the day was overcast with a mild temperature, maybe one of the last before winter makes its mark on our winter sport with cold and rain.

Strathalbyn were caught of guard early with a quick movement of the ball from the Rams midfield to the attackers and then the back of the net. The Strikers were not phased and followed up with impressive attack and a quick response to level the scores. a penalty goal moved the score on giving the strikers a lead. The Rams worked hard to restrict the Strikers attackers and change their play to match the tempo.

The Rams came out with a refreshed attitude and played a fantastic team game with impressive work in defence running down the Strikers attackers and great saves in goals. The Rams stuck to their strategy and stemmed the flow of goals to 1 in the second half, and although the Rams did not score in the second half, they showed promise with many more shots at goal. They made it a game of two half’s by coming back stronger and more determined to restrict the Strikers.

On the Day the Strikers got the jump on the Rams and even though the second half was a big improvement for the Rams the Strikers held on for a win. This match up will be something to look forward to in the main season.
