CPR Chiefs 2 vs Laurel Park Hurricanes 2

Cup Game- 2nd Round

Our 2nd cup game this season lead us to Laurel Park on a cold but sunny Saturday morning.

The 1st half started well with some good attacking play. This led to our 1st corner taken by Sam W which Dan deftly flicked into the goal. The team continued to play well with a number of missed opportunities to put some more goals on the board.
The Hurricanes managed to equalise from a goal kick. This gave both teams the desire to go out and win the game. Again, from a goal kick an alleged hand ball incident, the Hurricanes won a free kick just outside the box. From a great free kick the Hurricanes found the top corner of the goal (2-1) and before the end of the 1st half Nick managed a save as the ball on the line.

The 2nd half started as the 1st with a number of great attacking plays but all failed to find the goal. The Hurricanes did have some useful breaks and twice Nick bravely came out to make important saves. Drew (on for Sam W) managed to develop two goal opportunities but the ball got too close to the goalie to save.

Sam H (on for Jack M) saved the match with a last minute chip of the goalie to finish the match a draw.

The games finished 2-2
