Today was a disappointing undeserved loss.

Early on we went 1 nil down because of a rebound after Henry saved their shot then 2 nil after the referees bad decision for a free kick. Jacob scored to make it 2-1 then Harpo buried a penalty after a handball to equalise.

2-2 at half time.

Harry scored 10 minutes into the second half to make it 3-2 to Brill.

Eddie made a save to keep us winning 3-2.

The referee made a bad decision and awarded a free kick to them and they equalised off it.

In the last couple minutes they scored putting us 4-3 down at full time.

Man of the match was Freddie

Well done.

At least this was the match Harpo nearly scored a bicycle kick

( not yet Harpo )

Brill started the game well, looking comfortable against the visitors. We scored early on, around the 5-minute mark, when Freddie played a perfect through ball for Gabe. Gabe took off, unopposed, and confidently hit the ball into the corner of the net, leaving the keeper with no chance.

After such a great start and an early goal, it seemed like Brill might win easily - it turned out to be a tough game. Hazlemere came back strongly and Brill worked together really well to keep them at bay with great passing across midfield and united defensive play. When Hazlemere did manage to get some shots on goal, Henry made some crucial saves.

Brill then we went 2-0 up midway through the first half when Harry connected superbly to send an unstoppable rising shot from distance that flew high into the net. Half time score 2-0 to Brill.

The second half was less comfortable for Brill. We had had most of the play and Harpo hit the post with a super shot, but Hazlemere managed to soak up the pressure and relied on a number of breakaways for their attacks. Brill’s defence had to work hard and stay alert to keep them out.

On one occasion Hazlemere looked certain to score when one of their attackers broke clear and headed straight for goal, but Henry did well to rush out, cut down the angles and divert the shot for a corner.

Eventually Hazlemere scored a very well-taken goal to make it 2-1. Both teams then went for it in the remaining period of the game, but Brill held on for a 2-1 victory.

In summing up the game afterwards, Coach Toby gave Freddie a lot of credit for his strong performance and Harry was named MOTM for his match strong performance down the left side and his incredible goal. A joy to watch as ever and especially in the sunshine!!
