Square FC 8 Cornerstone 0

Saturday 3rd February 2007


The visitors matched Square in this game, until an own goal from a corner put Square ahead, and settled the teams composure.
Minutes later it was 2-0 as Chris Matthews picked up a kick from keeper Chris Jones, and waltzed past the Cornerstone defenders and then confidently slotted past the keeper into the net.
The first half finished with a 3 goal lead for Square after Tom Foster lashed an unstoppable shot into the top corner of the net.


The second half again started evenly enough, but a perfect cross from Alex to the far post enable Joel to head the ball home to extend the lead.


By now Cornerstone were looking for a consolation goal as they kept pushing forward, only to be thwarted by defenders Jonny and Josh. Instead their misery was compounded as Square midfield continued to keep up the pressure and found the net 4 more times.
Tom Firth took over in goal for Square for the final 10 minutes, to give Chris Jones his chance to play striker, in his elusive quest for a goal, which still continues.

To be on the end on such a battering was slightly harsh on Cornerstone - who gave Square a real run for their money in the first half - but in the end they simply had no answer on the day to the enthusiasm and commitment from the Square players.

Scorers:

Own Goal, Chris Matthews 2, Tom Foster 1, Alex Marvin 2, Joel Ayetty 2
