Chester v Neston
6th January 2007
Chester 2-2 Neston
Goals: Chris Lingard and Gavin Duff
It was good to be back after our christmas break, there was also a birthday boy on the team!
Gavin Duff celebrated his 19th birthday today!
We started off attacking very well, making some excellent passes. Chris Lingard scored the opening
goal in the first half, a good strike. Gavin Duff had one disallowed, (didn't use his stick, came off his foot). Neston were
attacking Chester's defence to get another one in and we were also defending the oppostion's short corners. At half time,
Rutter and Tim gave us an entertaining talk and so were prepared to get more goals. This didn't go to plan as we didn't get
hold of the ball for the first 20 minutes of the game! Chester were really strong and scored 2 goals and had other chances.
It looked bleak for Neston to get a goal back but in the last minute of play, Twiggy passed it
into the D and Gavin Duff hit it through the keeper's legs. Gavin got his Birthday Goal, to put Neston Level at 2-2.
An even game and a very enjoyable one to play in.
Final Score 2-2
