Game 16 Report (Feb 6, 2016

February 6, 2016

Hello Dragons.

Todays game we were out early and ready to have some fun.  At the start of the game we had 14 players, SUBS! 

First Half:

The 98Lightning were short benched, but they were game to play.  We started out strong, and Isaac set Sean up and he scored on his first shot 2 minutes in.  Off the kick off we would bring the ball back into their end and Davis would get the games next shot. At the 7 minutes mark Isaac would bring the ball up the wing and set up Michael for another goal. Jake would take the first foul of the game at 9 minutes.  For the next 20 minutes the game would go back and forth, until at 27 minutes a 98Lightning player would bat the ball out of the air, giving us a penalty shot.  Matthew Chan stepped up and get our 3^rd goal of the day.  The half would end, with us getting a couple of chances but the 98Lightning keeper making some strong saves.

Second Half:

The 98Lightning came out at us in the 2^nd half but went offside.  This gave us a chance to regroup. Marcus would get an unassisted goal at 56 minute, with a chip shot over the keepers head.  1 minute later, he would do it again for his 2^nd goal of the game. At 59 minutes Jamieson would get his first of the game (may have bounced off Nick’s back?).   But at 66 minutes Michael assisted on another for Jamieson. At 71 minutes Nick set up Sean, who found the back of the net.  Isaac was having a great game and at 86 minutes he would set up Matt K on another goal.   WE were a little sloppy now and the Lightning would come back and get a goal. But after the kick off, Andrew brought the ball in down the wing and with a nice pass back set up Jamieson for the final tally!

All in, we had 20 shots, while the 98Lightning had 3.  The big stat was we went offside 12 times!
