Joe (GK)-9.0- Plenty of fine stops and saves and also provided plenty of attacking options with pin-point throw ins. Conceded twice via two nicely struck low drives into the bottom far post. But besides that, a great game from the shot-stopper
Wong (DF)- 9.0- Solid game from the tough tackler, closed down on his man everytime and was rewarded duly with possession. Was involved in defensive miscommunication with his partner for the first goal. However, recovered nicely, to see out the match.
Conrad (DF)-9.0- Putting his body on the line a number of times to block the shots and get the tackle in. Produced wonderful defence for most of the match with his defensive partner Matthew Wong.
James (DF/FW)-9.5- Despite being involved in defensive miscommunication for the first goal but could not have recovered any better by scoring two well taken shots two complete the comeback. Fantastic showing by the super sub.
Jordan (FW)-9.0- Displayed great resolve to close down oppositon play in their defensive half for the first half. However, fatigue was a major factor in the start of the second half, as Epic FC conceded the first goal after losing some of the great forward work by Jordan, but made up for it with a goal of his own.
Blaise (FW)-9.5- Another faultless performance by the forward. A relentless running machine which never slowed, was rewarded with two assists and a goal. The speed, power, and stamina of the rookie is scary.
Man of the Match- Blaise & James- Great partnership of the two which directly resulted in three goals between them.
Overall, good showing by the team, showed great determination to overturn the 1-0 deficit. No nonsense defending and a doggedness attack were the key factors. Lots of praise for 1337n355 who made Epic FC work hard for the 4-2 victory.
Note: Congrats to sister-team, The Awesomes, who played a smashing game running out 9-2 victors.
