Today's game was the toughest that we have played so far this season. Aces played a very physical game. They are a team with a lot of strength and also able pass the ball to feet.
The Aces manager recognised Archie just before kick off... 'Your Marks boy aren't ya!?!, you're pretty good!'.
Archie started and finished the game playing left midfield/left wing and dealt with his duties well for the most part trying to deal with Aces' big number 10 and also had a few tussles with their Captain. The score was a little harsh on the boys but could have been worse if it wasn't for our keeper. There were few chances for either team in the first half and we went in at half time 0-0.
We started the 2nd half well with Lewis P managing to have a shot on target but the keeper was able to deal with it. The game kind of slipped away from there and after Aces went 2-0 up then 3-0, the boys let there go down a little. They still attacked the Aces goal and Archie managed to break his duck, scoring the Evergreen goal with a left foot volley from Harry's "Delap" like throw in. The Aces keeper had already tipped one Archie's volleys over the bar earlier on.

GOALS: Archie (1)
We have another cup game next week vs Berkhampstead Raiders Blue who beat us 2-0 last week. This time it is the League Intermediate Cup.
Archie is now joint top scorer alongside Harry, both with 1 goal. Hopefully Arch and the team can get back to scoring ways, I'm sure there are a lot of goals in the team...
