Bryan Munich vs Rapid Dementia

Match Reports

Bryan Munich made their debut in the top division against a superb Rapid Dementia side at Shirehampton. It was a splendid, tough-tackling advert for over 45s football with both sides making great chances. Matt Bennett got 2 for Bryan in the first half and Rapid got a penalty given at the start of the second. Then the onslaught began but Bryan managed to just about hold out. Great game of football and we look forward to visiting Rapid late in the season.

Rapid made the trip to Shirehampton to once again find the Portway closed (is it ever open?) despite this we managed to kick off on time. The pitch was lovely, the warm up good and once again we were delighted to be playing against an evenly matched Bryan Munich! With only Jase Curtis semi fit to play up front Rapid made hard work of creating clear cut chances and despite some tidy football, rarely threatened the Bryan goal. A stray pass from Gregory at the back led to the Bryan first goal, and this was quickly followed by a second, a lovely chip from the Bryan striker!

The second half brought a much better performance out of Rapid, an early Penalty set the tone and three superb chances were thwarted by Bryans outstanding Goalie! However it wasn’t to be our day and their goal, like the Portway, remained closed to visitors!

Excellent officiating and good fair opponents contributed to a very enjoyable match and Rapid look forward to hosting (and hopefully gaining some points) in the return fixture!
