Central City 8 (2) v Crediton 0 (0)

City cruised into the final of the Plate Trophy with a comfortable win over Third Division Crediton. After a slow scrappy start, the midfield was juggled around with Sam, Dan, Charlie and Joey being charged with getting City on the front foot. The changes did the trick and it wasn't long before Lucas controlled the ball and tucked it in at the near post. Within two minutes they had doubled their lead with Dylan turning sharply on the edge of the six-yard box and smacking the ball home. 2-0 up at the break, but with Charlie suffering from a cold and Cameron with a sore back it was time to make more changes and bring on Pacey and Max. The second half started with Central's first lucky break of the season, as Dylan's week effort bobbled over the defender's foot and rolled into the Crediton goal. City were 3-0 up and for the first time this season the players relaxed on the ball and showed what ability they all had. It wasn't long before Dylan completed his hattrick and the game was in the bag. Lucas scored the next two goals, the first following up on Tom D's superb long range effort that came back off the crossbar, and his hattrick was complete with a 20yd strike that dipped in over the keepers head. In the final two minutes, Tom D made it 7 and Joey completed the scoring, ending a morale boosting performance from the team. With 4 subs available the team rotation worked really well and let's hope for good squad attendance in the remaining games this season. Wembley here we come, or is it Wembury.
