GAR'S GREAT GAME + DOC'S DOUBLE

Gar's best tackle was in 75th min, when a Stedfast forward, through on goal and about to shoot, Gar made a last ditch sliding tackle, winning the ball and clearing his lines.
DOC's Double; a 30 yard free into top right corner & a soaring header.
Stedfast 2 v 2 D3
Gar the player /manager had a great game against a Stedfast side,who had they won, would have gone top of the division.
Stedfast started the better and had the lions share of possession in the first half. Stedfast were winning more of the ball in midfield , which put a lot pressure on the defence. D3 defence held strong, lead by Gar, putting in well time tackles.
Things didn't look good when after 15 mins Robbie had to go off injured with a groin strain. His replacement DOB didn't put a foot wrong in the whole game. He went to make sure nobody scored from his side and that's exactly what he did. Ten minutes later Vinny went off injured with an ankle injury, being replaced by Alex, who also had a good game.
On the 20th minute, with D3 playing a high line, 2 Stedfast players were 5 yards offside but the ref. let the game go on. They broke away and gave Jez no chance.
Dollymount never gave up, even if they were a bit ragged. In the 30th minute DOC took a free kick from 25 yards and put it in the top right corner. The keeper got a hand to the ball but could not stop it.
Stedfast spent most of the last 15mins in Dollymount's half but Gar's defence kept them out. Jez making some very good saves. The two full backs, Dave OB & Alex, held up Stedfast's wing play. Paddy & Gar stopped most of the centre play with fine tackles and good reading of the game. Tom & Baz got very little service, so it's hard to comment on them. D3 made to 1/2 time 1-1.
The 2nd half was a different story, D3 were much more organised and dominated nearly the whole half. The 4 midfielders (DOC, Ronan, Al and Kinger) took control of the game. Ronan & DOC started winning most of the ball in the centre, even when Stedfast added another midfielder. Al & Kinger made some very good runs down the lines and put in some good crosses.
Shane was brought on for Tom on the 60th minute. Shane went to left mid and Mark went up front.
65th min D3 won a corner on the right, Al hit a high in swinger into the near post where DOC rose high and in front of the defence to power his header past the keeper. Going 2-1 up was nothing more than D3 deserved and could have had a lot more goals, with shots from Baz, Al, Kinger and Ronan all bringing off saves from their keeper.
Stedfast didn't give up either, in the 70th minute, Alex was chasing back after the ball under pressure from a Stedfast forward and seemed to have everything under control but just as he was about to kick into touch, he slipped and the no. 13 turned and lobbed Jez, leaving him stranded. A few minutes later a Stedfast forward broke through and he would have been straight on goal but for a great sliding tackle by Gar when it look like he had no chance of stopping the forward.
Dollymount went for the win and won more corners and had more shots on target but could not find another goal.
It ended 2-2 which was probably a fair result since it was a game of 2 HALVES.

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.
