Monday Night Football Match Report - 4th April 2022 - FGFC

First match report for a while so here goes it!

FGFC have managed to find our way back up the leagues to Division 3 after restarting to try and challenge ourselves to get all the trophies and medals. Luckily enough we don't disappoint and don't get anywhere near these accolades whilst we bemoan our FIFA Script luck. A night full liquorice allsorts, starting promising with a few quality displays @JamaicanSteve Connor Chameleon doing his best to finish top goalscorer with 8 goals from his favoured ~~CDMLWBLW~~CF position, the best one of the lot coming from his new 8ft 2" build that is a slow tank at Left Back, bursting through to score one of our winning goals.

Early wins were followed by close losses, taking early leads only to be pegged back and concede goals out of nowhere (well, thats what the defence want you to think). At one stage @GazzaGarratt's pass completion rate for a single game was 3.4%. It was epitomised by a game dominated by FGFC, only to lose a goal on the break to 'Jareer Ball'. They soon went down to 10 men just after the hour and a barrage of shots came in; most notably by Torpedo Tony @TonyAE86 who was doing his best to recalibrate his goal compass and went close...eventually. A late run by No Pace James ended with a shot narrowly going wide but a penalty awarded as the player took him out just afterwards. After the penalty was converted, FG pushed hard for a winner, only for the ref to inexplicably blow up with Connor through and the keeper off his line by 40 yards. Script Life.

One highlight was the incredible start against 'laddo FC', as they seemed to be mesmerised by the humungous long ball and the raw pace of Where's Martin @Findmartin who then played a first time lobbed ball to Tom Cebious @LordBaguette , who quite frankly scored a goal to finally knock him out of his permanent depressive state for at least 2 minutes. FGFC then ended up losing the game 5-2 😄

A few more yoyo-ing with good wins and devastating comebacks from the opposition gave us consolidation in Division 3 by the end of the night. Whilst we thought two bad defeats started the next season, FGFC ended up finishing on a high by destroying LGBTQ United (yes, that was their name) 7-1, a brace from both Tony and Connor.
