For the final game of the season the Warriors took a big squad to the game, to allow all players to get a runout. The 1st 1/4 started very slow for the Warriors. No real signs of passion or effort from the players, despite Paul's yelling and hand waving from the sides! things slowly got bad as the Tigermoth's took a 3-0 lead! Cobbler's cup hangover maybe? Just before the end of the 1st period, Ben, fresh from picking award the top scorer award for the season banged in a goal to make it 3-1 at the break.
The second 1/4 had a pretty slow start too... but then the Warriors kicked into life. Callum found himself on the end of a good pass and slotted the ball past their keeper. 3-2, game on! The 3rd 1/4 started with the Warriors in more control of things, and saw Ben get his second of the game to confirm a brilliant comeback. 3-3. The last 1/4 saw a complete defensive mix up and Tigermoths regain the lead! 4-3. The Warriors then upped their game. Sammi went through on goal only to see his shot go straight at the keeper. Liam huffed and puffed across the middle but was unable to open up the Tigermoths defence with a run or a killer pass. Then Sammi broke free again, and this time he placed his shot wide of the keeper to make it 4-4. Final whistle, cracking game in the sunshine!
Both managers then decided to end the game with a penalty shootout! Untested Sam stepped forward and wanted to be the keeper... the crowd gasped.... was this the right move? Had manager Paul made a mistake? the answer.. Nooooo!! Sam pulled off at least 5 saves in the shoutout which saw the Warriors as clear winners.
Well done lads.
