MATCH REPORT 1.3.08 FIRST TEAM

Freethorpe played hosts to a gallant and hardworking Watton Utd Reserves. Although Freethorpe got off to an excellent start when Whitefoots freekick was deflected into the net after just 5 minutes Watton held Freethorpe for the majority of the first half. Two strikes just before half time swung the game in Freethorpes favour. A good worked move involving ward and then a one two with whitefoot saw Garside calmy slot the ball past the keeper. Rix was then on hand to quickly add Freethorpes third with an excellent drive from the edge of the box. The alert Lawton quickly got the second half up and running with a well taken lob. Then the game turned into the Rix show adding a further three superb goals. The first a volley from a burns freekick. The second was a cool finish past the keeper. The last was the goal of the day with an excellent strike into the top corner following an excellent run. It was a good boost for the team to have the influential Hurley back in the first team fold following an injury layoff. Next game: away to Norwich CEYMS - 2.30pm ko Remember Casino night in the village hall Sat 8 March. It will be great fun. Come and join in.
