Dynamos v Woodley (game 2)

Dynamos 3 – Woodley 2

Before this week’s report a quick mention to last week’s friendly game, there was no report but as a summary Dynamos had a comfortable 5 – 1 win. The man of the match was Ru with a fantastic hat trick.

The last competitive game of the season saw Dynamos still holding on to top spot with rivals Whiteknights breathing down their necks. The belief was, before the game, that Dynamos had to win by a few goals to make the goal difference enough to win the league, more on that later!

Dynamos started quickly with wave after wave of attack, an incredible amount of shots rained on the Woodley goal with Ru, Charlie, Felix, Jay and Thomas all coming close. The Woodley goalkeeper was performing heroics keeping them out.

Dynamos defence of Travis, Hayden and Thomas dealt with the few breaks that Woodley made in the first few minutes, their one shot comfortably saved by Jordan. The siege on the Woodley goal continued and it was with great relief that Ru slotted in for the first goal following a great Dynamos attacking move. – Dynamos 1 – Woodley 0.

The relentless Dynamos pressure continued, with several near misses by Felix and Jay followed by a truly fantastic solo run and finish by Felix to put Dynamos two nil up just before half time. It needed something special to beat the keeper and that was it! – Dynamos 2 – Woodley 0.

Charlie had a shot go close before the referee brought the first half to an end with Dynamos well on top but unable to make their domination show on the score line.

The second half started as the first with waves of Dynamos attacks but if anything the Woodley keeper got even better keeping the Dynamos at bay with some amazing saves. During this period Harrison, Jay and Felix all had several efforts on goal.

The confidence seemed to grow from their keeper to the rest of the Woodley team and for the first time they put a couple of attacks together and stretched the Dynamos defence, their second attack of the half saw them pull one back. – Dynamos 2 – Woodley 1.

Dynamos went straight back on the attack with efforts by Felix, Jay and Travis but the Woodley keeper held firm.Then on a quick break the panic set into the Dynamos defence and after some pinball shots around the goal the ball somehow escaped Jordan’s hands and agonisingly crossed over the line. Incredibly the game was level. – Dynamos 2 – Woodley 2.

With only a couple of minutes left Dynamos looked shell shocked for a while, Woodley broke through but a great save by Jordan kept them out.

In the last minute Dynamos tried to push for the winner they deserved, with Woodley camped in their own box it looked like it wasn’t going to happen. Then a corner was forced by Dynamos pressure. The ball was whipped across and with a rocket of a header by Ru, Dynamos regained their lead! Joyous celebrations followed the goal on the pitch and touchline! – Dynamos 3 – Woodley 2.

The referee only just about time to restart before the final whistle went on a truly hard fought victory for Dynamos. Final score – Dynamos 3 – Woodley 2.

Attention then went to the Whiteknights game and some bad news came across that they had won 5 – 2 and it was thought that after all the seasons effort if Whiteknights were to win their next game that would be that and Dynamos would have to settle for runners up. However during the effort medal presentation it became clear that the rules were for teams on equal points the games between those two teams counted rather than overall goal difference, so the two games between Dynamos and whiteknights saw Dynamos come out on top and win the league!

So a massive well done and well played to all 9 players in the Dynamos team who all put in a fantastic effort and showed some great skills and teamwork throughout a season that ended with ...
