MATCH REPORT 9/2/08 FIRST TEAM

Freethorpe followed up the previous weeks good result with another convincing win against a hardworking Sprowston wanderers. Freethorpe got off to a perfect start with Read opening the scoring after just 5 minutes. Barber then doubled the lead just minutes later. Freethorpe continued to press and seemed to create chances at will. However, the finishing was not as clinical as the approach play and the score remained at 2-0 at the interval. Second half started slowly but Freethorpe gradually got back into their stride and eventually added 5 further goals. Top scorer Rix got in on the act followed by Burns who rifled the ball into the roof of the net after a good layoff by Loomesy. Garside was next to score from a corner before Loomesy scored not only the goal of the match but the goal of the season. The sprowston keeper took a decent goal kick only for Loomesy to control the ball and plant straight back over the keepers head from a full 45 yards. Ward rounded off the Freethorpe scoring with a well taken header which meant Freethorpe had scored 7 goals all by different scorers. Sprowston gallantly battled on and got a deserved consolation in injury time to make the final score 7-1. Lets keep up the hard work lads and see where it takes us.Next Match: Home to Foulsham. 2.30pm KO.
