Carpet Munchers FC (6)12 [Sam Roberts 5, Luke Holden 3, Rob Danson 3, Iain Wilson] WCFC (3)5
Squad – Craig Wilson, Iain Wilson, Rob Danson, Sam Roberts, Luke Holden
For the last game of the season, Munchers brought in two new players in Sam Roberts and Luke Holden, and they responded by scoring eight times between them. Iain and Rob played at the back for most of the game, and after an opening in which Craig had to make a couple of sharp saves, Munchers soon took control.
Sam scored the first goal, chipping the diving ‘keeper, and Luke made it 2-0 when he made space and was unmarked from a quick free kick. It was 3-0 when Iain had a shot saved and Luke followed up to net, and Sam scored a fine individual goal to make it 4-0. Munchers were in complete control, ripping the WCFC team apart with their one-touch passing, and Rob added a couple of goals before Luke hit the underside of the bar.
Towards the end of the half, Munchers relaxed a little too much and quickly conceded three goals, the third being an unlucky deflection as Iain blocked a goalbound shot.
The second half was a lot closer, with Iain often playing a lone role in defence and blocking innumerable shots. He found time to run on to Rob’s through ball to score the seventh goal, and after WCFC pulled another back, Sam made the score 8-4. WCFC hit the inside of the post before scoring their fifth goal, and although Sam made it 9-5, Craig was the busier ‘keeper, making several fine saves.
In the closing minutes, Sam scored his fifth goal of the evening and Rob and Luke completed their hat tricks to seal an emphatic 12-5 victory.
