Kingstonian
vs Dulwich Hamlet
Following their loss against Tottenham Hotspur;
Kingstonian were looking for a win against Dulwich Hamlet in the Geoff Harvey
Memorial Vase final. They wanted to win this badly so they believed that
consistent attacking would give them a win. In this case that is what happened
and Kingstonian won against a less able Dulwich Hamlet side.
The game happened with the first attack
turning to be a goal. The Dulwich keeper came outside the box to clear the ball
but the Kingstonian player got the ball from the goalie and chipped the ball
above the goalie’s head into goal. So the 1st goal was scored by
Alex Mclean. After this Dulwich tried hard to equalize but the Kingstonian
goalie saved most of their chances. Dulwich tried to attack but the Kingstonian
player retained possession and the ball went to the Kingstonian winger. He ran
down the wing and passed to Alex Mclean who took a clean first touch and the
ball went to the back of the net. Straight afterwards Kingstonian gained a
throw-in in the Dulwich’s half. It was a short throw to a nearby player who
crossed the ball into the box. Alex Mclean flew in and scored a volley, this
was his hattrick which took only 26 minutes to do. From this point onwards both
teams wanted to score some goals. Brilliant dribbling and attacking brought
chances for both teams but both teams were not able to finish as well as they
could do.
During the second half Kingstonian had a
chance where a player had a shot but the goalkeeper saved it. The ball was
still in play and a Kingstonian striker came and scored the rebound but the
goal was disallowed since the player was offside. Then there was a big pile-up
as many players came to get the ball, soon the ball fell to a Kingstonian
player who had a clear shot at goal, but the Dulwich goalie came forward and
saved the ball. But then the saved ball came to Andre McCollin and he shot at an
open goal and scored. The score now was 4-0 to Kingstonian. Dulwich had no
chance. Later in the second half Dulwich had a throw in, it was taken short and
a great cross was put in the box. The
ball fell to Junior James and he scored with a simple finish. This was a great
goal to watch. Later more attacking came but no goals were score. The full time
whistle was blown the score Kingstonian 4 Dulwich 1. Congratulations
Kingstonian- Geoff Harvey Memorial Vase Champions 2013.
