Plashet 1 Vs Chelmsford 3



4 - 1

Confident from the previous week, Plashet came into this game searching for their first home win of the new season.

The game started with Plashet's usual slow start, moving the ball around with ease, getting their flow together. Chances came and went, but Plashet were unable to capitalize. Against the run of play, Chelmsford broke on a quick counter attack and punished Plashet for their missed chances by taking the lead. Plashet was awarded a penalty flick not long after, and Indie could only helplessly watch as his flick came back off the post. The first half ended with Plashet 1-0 down.

Plashet had to up the tempo in the 2nd half, and they did just that 5minutes in. Sukhvinder saw his short corner effort saved by the keeper, but Sandeep was quickest to react, putting the ball into the net to equalize. Plashet's confidence increased, and their game started to open up. Plashet scored a 2nd goal no long after through a wonderful strike from Indie, after beating two players with some lovely skill. 

Sukhvinder added to Plashet's tally after a straight forward strike on goal from a short corner, adding to Chelmsford's misery. Chelmsford continued to work hard, with some great passing movement around Plashet's 25. Their final pass was letting them down, and their frustration lead to a few more mistakes at the back. Plashet capitalized on one of these moments, and stringed together a few good passes, which presented Himmat with his first goal of the season, and Plashet's fourth of the day.
