Red Star 45s vs Recliners FC
Match Reports
A terrific game at Saltford between two well matched sides saw RedStar triumph thanks to clinical finishing. Recliners took the lead with an excellent goal on the break, Gaffers crossing for Miguel, who tucked in the rebound after his first attempt was saved brilliantly by the keeper. RedStar equalized after the Recliners defence was slow to clear and they then took the lead with a firm header from a perfectly executed corner. Recliners took the game to RedStar in the second half, hitting the woodwork twice and drawing 3 more excellent saves from the keeper, but RedStar extended their lead with another bullet header from another top class corner. A full blooded game but played in very good spirit, good luck to RedStar for the rest of the season.
RED STAR MATCH REPORT
A quality exhibition of high level football from two fluorescent teams. Recliners took the lead whilst Red Star were still admiring the first of several worldies from their own keeper. It felt like the visitors might take a firm grip on the game, but Red Star grabbed an equaliser when Gareth tidied up some penalty box ping pong, injecting a surge of confidence back into the home team. Red Star then deployed their secret weapon, hidden for many years, an ability to score great goals from corners. Cammy put them ahead before half time, connecting with Waj’s precision delivery, and then T planted a proverbial bullet into the corner of the net early in the second to put Red Star 3-1 up. A dubious offside call denied them a further cushion, but they also had to ride their luck, with top drawer saves, a bit of woodwork and two utterly heroic (if largely unnoticed) clearances off the line.
A really accomplished performance from Red Star against a very capable Recliners team. Great game played in good Corinthian spirit, well done all.
