Storm vs. Westlawn Round 18
Well the
regular season is now complete and the lads move onto the semi’s and are in
some good form. The first half saw the Storm go ahead through a good goal from
Paul Malith. Paul’s took the correct
option and had the shot and the shot had too much power for the keeper and it
went through his hands into the back of the net for a 1 – 0 lead. Westlawn kept the game up to the Storm and
had an equaliser through a good shot just outside the box which beat the Storms
goalkeeper Adrian Keegan. Following this
some great hussle by Brendon Myers to win the second phase header and provide a
great ball for Daniel Aryjong to slot home to make it 2 -1. Some good ball skills shown by Salvador
Wamara allowed him to pass it to Brendon Myers who spotted Matthew Bennett
coming from the clouds and once again Myers provided the assist for Bennett to
slam home the storms 3rd goal from about 25 yards out for a 3 – 1
lead at half time.
The second
half was dominated by the storm and through a lack of finishing and some poor
options in front of goal no further goals were added. Some good defensive work by Scott Tarlinton,
Jayden Kachel, John Paul and David Poverello ensured the storms goalie Jordan
Andrews was not tested in the second half.
Once again Enoch Marc, Cameron Jones, Marual Mangor and Daniel Harris
all played their part to ensure the win and ensure Storm are back in form
heading into the finals.
Our man of
the match this week goes to Salvador for a solid game where he continually
hassled the Westlawn defence and made some great defensive plays when required,
well done mate. To all the storm supporters please come and support the guys during
the semi finals as you support always helps lift the lads. Lets bring it home
now!
