Match Report

Square FC 3 Cornerstone 0

Saturday 29th September 2007

The first half started with Square pressing for goals, using possession well across all areas of the pitch. However, getting shots on target proved to be a problem, as Cornerstone worked hard in defence. Alex, Freddie and Matt all had chances cleared away. After 15 minutes of pressure, Alex finally created the opportunity to take the lead for Square. However, instead of settling the Square confidence, this increased the efforts by Cornerstone to strike back, as they broke through several times to create their own scoring opportunities.

The second half continued the Square push on to the Cornerstone goal, but with Ben and Harry kept busy in defence, it was not going to be easy. Keeper Chris Jones was called on a couple of times to pull off saves to keep the slim lead.
With 10 minutes remaining, Square finally consolidated the lead with a well taken corner headed home by Chris Matthews, and followed minutes later by a well hit left foot shot from Matt, which sealed the result.

Cornerstone continued to press for a deserved consolation goal in the final minutes, but the great all round team effort for Square proved enough to maintain the clean sheet.
