League: Tuesday Championship RNE

LQ FC vs 2 Goals 1 Schlupp

It took a while for this game to get going on Tuesday evening. With only 3 games played so far this season it was a tough one to call before kick-off.

2 Goals 1 Schlupp opened the scoring, with Owen Johnson scoring what turned out to be his teams only goals in the 11th minute.

It was pretty much one way traffic for the rest of the match. Alex drew the scores level after 14 minutes; and Matthew Brierley added a second for LQ FC in the 23rd minute. Going into the break at 2-1 to LQ FC, it was sstill all to play for.

The second half saw LQ FC hammer the 2 Goals 1 Schlupp net. Tim Price made it 3-1 soon after the break. Matthew Brierley heaped on the misery for 2 Goals with 3 goals in 12 minutes to see LQ FC run out 6-1 winners.

 

Wellspring FC vs Only Kruls & Horses

Only Kruls & Horses were back for a second week after a tetchy opening to their Ballers life in the hard fought win over 2 Goals 1 Schlupp last week, and they faced a Wellspring team who have lost some familiar faces in the name of further education.

When James Thornley gave Only Kruls the lead on two minutes it looked like this might have been an easier second game, but Joel Mitchell grabbed a leveller for Welspring a couple of minutes later. Two more goals in two minutes as we approached the 10 minute mark seemed to have put Kruls in control, as Seb Etchells and Thornley found the net, but Wellspring hit back again and Lewis Arden reduced the arrears half way through the period. Further goals from Thornley and Brad Gilman eased Only Kruls into a 5-2 half time lead as they looked to make it two wins from two.

Wellspring started the second half well, and missed a number of chances in the opening minutes, but they squandered those chances and were caught with a sucker punch as Etchells grabbed his second and third to ease Kruls into a comfortable position. Gilman also got his second before Mike Devitt pulled one back for Wellspring, but the comeback was never going to materialise and Jack Mullern and Etchells added a couple more to the Kruls tally to give them the win.
