D3 NEW GEAR (click on picture to enlarge)

Allenton 4 v 5 Dollymount 3rds A.E.T.

D3 scrape through to the next round of the SYDNEY BEDLOW CUP.
The game started well with a lot of pressure on the home goal.
1o mins Shane found himself free & nut-megged the from 20 yards out .
10 1/2 mins Allenton tipped off, passed the ball back to centre half who missed the ball, Baz ran on to it and slotted the ball passed the keeper.
D3 should have gone on to win by a hat full, but tried to play the long instead of the passing game they can be so good at. Alan was chasing after lost causes and actually caught a few.
35 mins Allenton right winger broke down our left and crossed, the ball was met on the volley which gave James no chance.
40 mins From an Allenton kick out, DOC headed the ball back into their half where Baz flicked on and Cano got on to it. ran into the box and left footed the ball across the keeper hitting the inside of the right post and in.
There was a two footed tackle on Al, which annoyed him and then in the 43 min. Alan swore and the ref awarded a free on the 1/2 way line. The ball floated into the box and a free header, goal. 2-3 half time.
53 mins a 30yd shot another goal 3 all.
65 min. Kinger got fouled on the right edge of the box, close to the wide line. Al's hits the over the keeper to the back post where J leaps above everyone to head home, back in the lead.
75th minute all square and under pressure. It got to much for Baz who got sent of with 10 minutes remaining for cursing at the Ref (Who by the way had a good game). D3 held on till full time. During the 2nd half Shane & Vinny where taken off, both with muscle problems. Robbie went to left full, Aido to centre half, & DOC took centre midfield role.
D3 were pinned back for the first half of extra time, but held out.
1/2 time E.T. Steve came on for Tom. D3 started to play in Allenton's half. This put pressure on their defence and goal. 5 minutes left, the ball gets kicked forward. Steve using his new found speed got to the ball first, holding of 3 defenders he laid the ball back to DOC, who crossed first time into the box where Kinger rose above the keeper to flick the ball into the top right hand corner. D3 Held out this time to progress to the 2nd round where they will have to be more disciplined if they are to make an impact in this cup.

Dolly3rd 4 v 3 Rumm

Two each for FREENEY & KINGER.
GREAT WIN to beat a battling Rumm

D3 showed great spirit and skill in horrendous weather conditions. With the wind in D3's favour in the first half the players knew they had to be leading at half time and so it was that D3 put continuous pressure on the Rumm goal. D3 have started the league badly and Rumm where 3rd in league but would have not known.
Kingers 1st. goal came from severe in swinging corner from the right into the far top corner with the keeper getting a hand to the ball but unable to stop it. That got D3 on the way, but found it hard to get another which they felt they deserved. Then Freeney to the fore and struck a sweet shot into the bottom right corner. The last kick of the half.
Rumm scored within a minute of kick-off and the pressure on D3 again, but again Freeney popped up at the back post to nod home from close range, after a very good build up which included at least 10 passes back forward and across the field.
The eleven players worked their butts off to get more goals which they should have with some lovely approach work.
Then a couple of slight slip ups and Rumm were right back in it, 3-3.
65 mins Tom came on DOB and went left mid. with Gar going to left full.
D3 did not crumble instead they fought harder for the win and some lovely football.The front line of Baz & Freeney never gave their defence a rest. The midfield made some darting runs, with Al going close a couple of times. Ronan, Tom and Kinger could have also scored. With 8 minutes remaining Kinger came through again to score the winner.
D3 defence, of DOC ,J , Vinny, DOB, andGar who had played with great determination throughout the game,helped from the non-stop running of midfield & forwards, weathered the storm of rain and Rumm to come away with a deserved win.

D.3 3 v 4 Rialto a.e.t.

D.3 GREAT COME BACK TO GET TO EXTRA TIME.

Even do D.3 didn't want to progress to the next round, you wouldn't have known by the performance they put on in the 2nd half. D.3 had a very bad start by letting a Rialto midfielder get a free header from a corner in the 1st couple of minutes. Rialto started a lot better than D.3 but after 10-15 mins Dollymount did get into the game. D.3 played some nice football and made 3 or 4 really good chances but bad finishing. Another free header from a corner and an offside, put Rialto 3-0 at 1/2 time.

1/2 time substitutions, saw Peter Comerford go to centre midfield & Shane go to the left midfield. They came on for Dave O'B (DOB) & Alex and Ronan went to Right Full.

Dolly 3 started, after the interval, with a great purpose to get back into the game and could have scored within 15 seconds, with a very good passing move involving Al, Baz and Freeney.

Mid-way through the 1/2 after continuous pressure on the Rialto goal, Barry Meehan (Baz) finally got the goal that D.3 deserved by coolly slotting pass the keeper. Hopefully Baz will go on a goal spree, now that he's got his first goal.

Another Substitution, Gar coming on for Ronan ( who had played 2 positions C-Mid & L-Back) Gar went up front to help the attack.

Dolly 3. went to 3 central defenders, with DOC centre, Vinny right and Jason left. After a few complaints, the midfield of Al, Shane, Peter and Kinger worked their socks off to make the change in formation work and it did. The 3 forwards of Gar, Freeney and Baz made their defence suffer with their movement, on and off the ball.

Soon after, Freeney scored a wonder goal from 25 yards curling a right footed shot into the top right corner giving the keeper no chance. This was Darren's 3rd goal of the season but it should have been is 3rd of the game. When he gets his scoring boots on, the team will be hard to stop.

With 5 minutes remaining Alan McLoughlin received the ball far out left, he turned his marker and left him for dead with his first touch. He then moved in field a few yards and reminiscent of Freeney's just a while before, curled the ball into the same top corner, only this time he was 30 yards out.

Rialto got another simple header early on in extra time. D.3 did have their chances to equalise again and the lads work very hard and never gave up. But with cramped muscles and tiredness it was just beyond them.

Jez, who had a very good game in goal, making some good saves during the match, went up for the last corner of the game and just missed getting on the end of Kinger's cross. That was the last chance to go to penalties.
