Match Report
Match Report - 24 Sep 2017, Clapham Rovers Clapham Rovers beat Inter Yamam
Rovers!
Rovers 3 – 1 Inter Yamam
The run continues...again!
I think I can best describe Inter Yamam as Bath Old Boys Light. They are awkward obstinate competitors who make always it difficult for you. We made light work of them in the first 20 minutes and raced into a 3-0 lead before we conceded a flukey goal and spent the rest of the match with one eye on a rear guard action to prevent our lead slipping away.
Bunny, or more accurately, a very hungover, Roy, opened the scoring with a fine looping header over the keeper at the far post from a fine cross from Smud with his first touch of the game on 2 minutes. Smudger then got the 2nd shortly after and Tim Louis opened his Rovers account from a fine looping cross from yours truly which Smud laid into his path. We were absolutely flying.
Inter Yamam then pegged us back from a looping cross from the right hand side which Pybus spilled over his head and into the net. Panic then set in and Inter Yamam were unlucky not to gain a 2nd when they hit the post from just inside the box.
Thus the game continued as such. We would attack and be unlucky not to score but we would be loose in many areas of the pitch and allow Inter Yamam to break and put us under pressure. You could argue that Inter Yamam did not have many clear cut chances but they persisted with long throws into the box which although we dealt with consummately, did not allow us to relax. It was therefore a relief to see the final whistle and 3 more points on the Rovers scoreboard.
MOM: Wrighty for a calming, controlling old pro performance in central midfield.
