Heaton Athletic 4 – 4 Prestbury Lynx

 Scorers, Sam 2 – Kane 2

 MOM – Kane

Lynx travelled to Abney Hall today which is a superb setting for junior football.

Both teams looked up for a good tussle so an end to end game broke out with plenty of good midfield play
on display. Heaton took the lead after some dodgy keeping on our part let Heaton in for a sloppy first goal.
 Before we knew where we were it was 2-0 as Heaton threatened to run amock. Lynx then pulled a nice goal
back from debutant Sam Goodwin when he turned neatly in the box and drove home. Heaton stormed back
and scored again just before half time to make it 3-1 and seemingly put the game out of Lynx reach. 

At half time pint sized Kane went on with JP to see what they could do to pull the game around. Although
Lynx conceded another to make the score 4-1 we were playing some good football and getting into
good scoring opportunities. One of these moves saw the ball land at Sam’s feet and he looped a ball into the
box where Kane was lurking to head home from 6 yards. The lads sensed a fight back was on the cards so
went straight back at Heaton from the off. Matt Davis and Will were tearing into Heaton’s back line and
creating havoc down the right, again Sam passed into the box and again Kane got in there to see the ball
over the line with his back side this time but hey… they all count !!.

Heaton were all over the place, now, just like a boxer caught with the Ali 1-2 and Lynx’s front players
were like a swarm buzzing around them. Once again it was debut boy Sam who found space in the box to
slot home the equaliser just seconds before the ref blew for full time. Great fight back lads.. well done !!

Queensgate 5 – 1 Prestbury Lynx

 MOM – Will

Lynx travelled to table topping Queensgate today and were given a lesson in footballing craft & graft. The
first 20 mins were honours even although Queensgsate were laying siege to our goal and controlling the
ball. Lynx hung in there but there was only so long that last gasp tackles and heroics in goal from our stand
in keeper would keep a good football side out. The score 0 - 1 at half time was in truth a little flattering to us.

Lynx put a good stint in for the fist 10 mins of the 2^nd half and pulled a goal back from Jacob after first Will
and then Matt caused confusion in the Queensgate rearguard. Lynx then shot themselves in the foot with poor
marking and a lack of effort to track back from midfield leaving our defence exposed on 3 or 4 occasions..
must do better lads !! Queensgate cut loose and rattled in 4 goals to put a gloss on their scoreline.

If we want to compete with the better teams in the division we need to work hard in training lads and get those
fitness levels up, be more organised and work as a team from start to finish.

 See you Friday !
