DOIT DO JIS ANOTHER FAVOUR...

Doit started with a strong line up and the opening skirmishes were quite even. Doit played well playing through the midfield and this resulted in a well deserved goal after about 20 minutes. A through ball found Denis just inside the box, he took a touch and settled himself before finishing low and hard. It felt as though JIS scored before we had restarted. From the restart JIS attacked and scored within 30 seconds, putting DOIT back in their place. Both teams played good football and fought out the rest of the half in a fairly even game. Highlight of the first half had to be Erwin's save from Gordon Boyd who curled the ball towards Erwin's top left hand corner, still don't know how he got to a hand to it.

With Tim having to call off at the last minute due to Josh falling ill on the school trip, there was a tirade of complaints at the pitiful supply of water I had pulled together at the last minute. Also at half time JIS were strengthened when Thomas turned up. Apparently he was delayed as some untidy body hair had been spotted during his last photo shoot. Uwe sorted it all though and JIS started with a strong team in the second half. I have to say there was a strong contingent on the JIS bench but not all were used, maybe saving their stronger players!!!!!!

Again the second half was an even affair but JIS created several one on one chances against the keeper and could have scored more. Sid had a brilliant game just seeming to 'be there' when needed as did Eric who played the game with a potential broken finger, hope it wasn't the whole finger!!!!!!!!! Erwin continued to outfox Gordon who was their main threat, but eventually JIS took the lead. Gordon hit a sweet shot from about 30 yards out into the top right hand corner, a great goal that deserved to decide such a good match. Doit kept playing good football and chances fell to both sides, and the JIS bench went unusually quite whenever Ronan got the ball in their half. JIS also created more chances but failed to convert them. At full time everyone had enjoyed the game played in the right spirit and which contained a high level of footballing skills and a good performance from the ref.

Scorers: Ronaldo (Vikings) (1)

With only 12 players available on the night it was going be difficult but a 1-0 score at halftime without Knudde having created just one open chance gave hope for a result in our favor.  Alas, the match ended 1-3 to Knudde who was the better team on the day but needed significant help by luck and Vikings to score their 3 goals.
