Hockey Stratford 3rd XI match report 13 Feb

Stratford 3rd Vs Telford on 13 feb 2010

Result: 0-4

 

Stratford 3rd XI played host to a buoyant Telford this weekend. Telford took the lead after some even play whereupon both sides looked to be evenly matched. Telford extended their lead with another before half time to leave Stratford questioning what could be done to improve their performance. The second half saw some good possession play by Stratford, but they were unable to convert this possession into anything dangerous enough to threaten Telford's goal.  Telford scored another two goals to finish the game 4-0. Stratford captain McBride said after the match "This was always going to be a tough match. With a few players returning from injury we were slow to start and lacked power in attack. The positive I will take from the game is the discovery of our two new youth players, Henry Whetstone and Pepe Townsin who stepped up and played very well indeed." Stratford will play Warwick next weekend in what is sure to be a boisterous local derby clash.
