CD Bahia were no mug outfit and put our defence
under a lot of pressure but the boys stood firm with some outstanding tackles and blocks.
Paul making a number of cracking saves to keep the score 2 –0.
The attacking football continued and the goal
of the game came when Jamie pulled down the ball and drove the ball a fully 45 yards into the roof of the net, leaving their
keeper on his arse.
Half time came with the hooligans 5-1 up.
The second half was a different game(you could
say a game of two halves). The referee who been very good in the first then gave
every decision to CD Bahia, any tackles we made were punished with a free kick, this gave Paul a difficult spell and he was
again called to make some good saves. But the opposition were encouraged and
they got the score back to 6-5. Their fans and players were going crazy, CD Bahia
really thought they could pull it back and then go on to win the game.
George callously hacked down their striker and
was lucky to only get a yellow card, Gareth also got a yellow for a typical sliding tackle that got the ball, the player,
the bench and the front row of the stand.
