Queens' 4 Selwyn/Robinson 1

A great performance and start to our cup campaign with a decisive victory against the league winners. The game was tight throughout the 1st half, with Queens' attacking well down the centre and finally getting the lead through Gabriel. Unfortunately, selwyn hit back moments after with a weak goal from a set piece but after that setback, queens' defended much better for the rest of the game, barely giving selwyn a chance.
The game was level 1-1 at half time, and after the rousing team talk from yours truly (modesty is over rated ;-) we began the half much more positively looking to play more directly and pressing the opposition all over the pitch much more effectively. We dominated the 2nd half with goals from Yue, Tom and a brilliant lob from Gabriel and we could have had more as Mark had a great header saved off the line and many of Tom's other shots came close too.
Very pleasing start to cup campaign, and it was very good to get a full strength lineup onto the pitch.
Goals: Gabriel (2), Tom, Yue
Team: Dan, Peter, Andy, Mark, John; Simon, Itzam, Gustavo, Martin; Tom, Gabriel; Yue
