Raiders vs Annerley Hawks

Our best "working as a team" effort ever! I don't know if you remember our first games of the season, but we've come a long way since then, when I used to count the number of good passes in a game on one hand. I'd have need the whole team's fingers and toes to count all the good passes I saw today! The highlights for me were:

• Ralph running with the ball down the right side of the field from half way, crossing it into the goal mouth where Geordan threw his left foot out and got a touch on it to score! Ralph's effort, amongst others, earned him the player of the match award.
• Alex and Mateo solid as a rock in defence in the first half. Some great moments where they worked together with passes to get the ball up the field. 
• Harry's well taken goal in the second half to give us the win.
• Jadrian's run with the ball from half way getting to a one-on-one with the goal keeper. Ethan had a couple of good chances in attach too.
• Christos and Joshua not giving up and getting some good passes away.
• And finally a shout out to Geordan's knee which saved a goal right at the end!

Really proud of everyone. It always feels nice to have a win every now and then. I think all of us parents on the sidelines enjoyed this game too. Well done! Here's a few photos...
