Square Rangers 5 Luton On Track 2

Saturday 7th October

Square Rangers gained their first points in the South Beds Saturday League thanks to a well earned 5-2 victory over a spirited Luton On Track team.

The first half saw Square Rangers exert a lot of early pressure on the visitors’ goal only to see them fall a goal behind from a swift counter attack. Rangers responded well, although clearly frustrated that many good goal scoring opportunities failed to find the back of the net. Joe Evans however capped a fine first half performance by levelling the scores following great work by Jack Sullivan down the right wing.

The second half became more open as Square Rangers were able to release the ball away from a congested midfield to hit the right passes into the space down the two flanks. This created good chances in front of goal as players unselfishly supplied others in better positions where it was pleasing to see our boys hit home some fine goals. The visitors battled hard never allowing our defenders to fall into complacency, but credit to all the Rangers players whose team work and determination saw them through to a deserved victory.

Man of the Match:

Joe Evans (chosen by Kevin Sullivan)

Highlight of the Match:

Square Rangers all important second goal which put them in front. A great run by Matt Childs unselfishly set up Jake Gill, whose close range effort was scrambled away to the edge of the area only to be slammed home by Joe Evans with a great low drive.
