Match Report - K.E.H.A.N.A

K.E.H.A.N.A vs Macho Men

A lot of fear was surrounding the players coming into this match. The fact that we'd lost to Macho Men 12 - 2 earlier in the season, the fact that Jaime wasn't playing, the fact that Brandon was playing !
But we still kept in the back of our minds 2 things, we'd beaten the top team by 8 goals and we had my grandmother watching the game (which meant we had strong gandparentic energy flowing to us).

We started the match strongly, with a great ball from Tom leading to a simple goal for Joe to blast in. However that would be the end of good play for a while, as our defence poorly worked together and led to a barrage of Macho Men goals.
We played well in parts in the second half, and Super Sub Brooks T. was able to provide a spark up forward and slot home a second for K.E.H.A.N.A. But it was too little, too late.
  • Good link up play from Tom and Joe
  • Great defence from Chris - His best performance to date
  • Brandon was annoying with his screaming and arguing with the ref. Kept well though.

  • Tom played strongly at the back, and effectively up forward
    - 8/10
  • Ben was, again, unable to find that fantastic defensive form he had during the match against Dbd's
    - 6/10
  • Brandon was solid in defence and keeper, but left wanting in attack
    - 7/10
  • Chris was fantastic in defence and had a very good spell up forward with a sizzling shot that was unfortunately just off target, hitting the crossbar.
    - 8.5/10
  • Tyler had a good game when he moved forward, but his keeping skills let him down at times
    - 7/10
  • Joe was strong in his forays forward, and made some good tackles in defence. Poor in keeper at times. - 7/10
Final Score - 

K.E.H.A.N.A -  2 - 8 -  Macho Men

Scorers - Blay J.
