Our roving reporter is taking a well earned break this weekend so you will just have to do with this rather sparse report.
Vale started the game in good spirits and quickly created sun very good chances that were spurrned. The first goal came early in the half when some great individual work by Westwood played in Connolly down the right wing who then crossed the ball to Coull who on his second attempt fired the ball low under the goalie. Vale played well for the remainder of the half untill some indesisive goalkeeping by Gardner caused confusion which lead to the striker having the ball laid on a plate with an open goal. Just before the half time whistle Eastvale were awarded a penalty as the ref deemed the goalkeeper to have fouled Connolly inside the box. Andy Kirk dispatched the penalty with some conviction.
Half Time 2-1
Second half continued in the same vain with Eastvale creating great chance after great chance being unable to convert. My apologies for the third goal as i have forgot how it was scored but we scored the third and it was brilliant. The game was wrapped up midway through the half when Beau found some space outside the box, he decided to hit a shot which took a fortunate bounce over the keeper (who had it covered) into the top corner.
Eastvale continued to play the game out in the same manner creating lots of chances but the game ended 4-1.
Full Time 4-1
Eastvale: Gardner, Scone, Haley, Kennedy, Westwood, Connolly, Armitt, Douglas (McLeish), Beaumont, Millar (Coull), Kirk (Kerr).
Hopefully our reporter will be back for Tuesday’s game against Star Hearts.
