FC AOTS vs Duno FC

This one had an interesting look about it, as AOTS who were unbeaten in their Ballers days went up against a Duno side who feel that with the introduction of a solid keeper that they have now cracked it and should be capable of mounting a serious promotion challenge.

The game exploded into life in the opening 10 minutes as 5 goals hit the back of the net in a 5 minute spell. Carl Buckley put AOTS in front, but Calvin Alexander levelled things up a minute later. Further goals from Adam Duty and Buckley gave AOTS a 3-1 lead, but that lead was reduced within a minute as ‘Rob’ pulled one back for Duno. Jack Cope drew Duno level again on 14 minutes, but Duty put AOTS back in front 7 minutes from the break. We went in all square at the break as Cope grabbed his second on 22 minutes, and the first half was as tight as we were expecting.

Duno started the second half the stronger, and went in front for the first time as Steven Nevins and Cope scored in the opening three minutes. Steven Whetham made it a three goal lead with 15 minutes remaining, and another goal each from Alexander and Cope took the result out of AOTS reach. Charlie Hutchinson and Duty did pull two back for AOTS to reduce the deficit to three with 7 minutes left, but that was as close as things got as Duno saw the game out to pick up an impressive win that sees them go second in the table.

The McMuffin Men vs Expected Toulose

Expected Toulose faced a tough task this week as they went up against a McMuffin Men team who look set to take the step up to a higher level for next season if they keep up the form of the first half of the season.

As may have been expected, The McMuffins raced into an early three goal lead as debutants Chris Ogden and Elliot Handler scored either side of a Mac Eyre finish. Toulose hit back and scored two quick goals of their own through Harry Bridge and Bernard Blicharz to make it 3-2 half way through the opening period. McMuffin regathered themselves and two goals from another debutant in Joe Murphy eased them back into a three goal lead, before Ogden made it 4, 6 minutes before the break. Kane Jordan pulled another back for Toulose to mean they were just three goals behind at the break.

Things quickly went south for Toulose in the second period, which was far less competitive. Charley Eyre grabbed two in the opening 5 minutes of the half, and for a team that don’t score many goals, the result looked done for this week. Charley Eyre grabbed three more as the half went on, Murphy also grabbed another three, while Ogden grabbed two and Handler and Mac Eyre grabbed one apiece as one of the promotion favourites ran away with things in the second period. Toulose will have easier games in the run in to the end of the season, and it’s unlikely these two teams will be meeting again next season.
