5-5 draw, with Fylde winning on sudden death flicks
Tough game, started fast and stayed fast. Lancaster went 2-0 down fast with two Fylde short-corners that they put away. But the boys recovered and put 2 goals of their own away. The goals utilised Dyl's hands, Tom's passing ability and Pete distracted the oppo. Jamie Jackson missed a ball on the back post. one more Fylde goal before half time, caused by Canrod having two men to mark and getting the ball played round him, leaving the Fylde striker ages to line up his shot which he put away.
After a stern half time team talk by Mel, the team went back at Fylde with great balls up the line from Phil and Fletch allowing the forwards to actually do something, Pete put a ball in the back of the net (somehow) putting the score at 3-3. The two remaining Fylde goals were more short corners, shile one of Lancasters was a short, put away by Penney. The last Lancaster goals came in the final minutes of the game, a great tackle by Mel stopped a Fylde attack, Mel passed to Penney who beat a couple of players then passed to Dyl who finished with a goal. The whistle went soon after.
Because it was a cup game it now meant the boys had to do flicks.
All of Fyldes' flicks were excellent with Adam only getting a touch on 2 of the 5.
Lancasters' Flicks were not as good with only Penney's flick going straight into the goal. Mel's flick went in off the keepers leg pad, with almost no speed left, Phils's flick was super slow, but he sent the keeper the wrong way.
With both teams scoring all 5 flicks, the game went to sudden death. Shockingly Dyl failed to score a flick, and Fylde put theirs away, meaning Lancaster lost the game.
