Barnesalona Cup
Barnes FC 3 v Lokomotiv Londres FC 5
Barnes Battered By Butler Hat-Trick
A great performance by the lads ensured that Loko's lead at the top of our Cup Group was increased over Barnes. The day got better when news filtered through that Uncle Bob's in third place slipped up and lost at bottom of the table Ladbroke Groovers 6-2.
The game didn't start as Loko planned with Barnes grabbing an early lead from a set-piece. Stefan (pictured below) scored to equalise and then scored again with a volley from a corner to give the away side some joy.
Arguably the games best goal followed and after Peggy had evaded three tackles he made a defence splitting pass in behind the defence for Dave H to latch onto, come inside the defender on the edge of the box and hit the ball with the outside of his foot into the bottom corner.
Half-Time Barnes FC 1 v Loko 3
The second half again started poorly for Loko with a simple looking ball over the top catching the defence unawares and the forward ran through and cooly finished past Julian. Roger then came off injured, and Ismail replaced Julian in goal with the latter taking Rogers place up front.
The equaliser came five minutes later when an air shot by a Loko defender failed to even make contact with the ball and it ran into the path of the attacker to score what would probably be the easiest goal of his Barnesalona career.
Loko then took the lead again with twenty minutes remaining through Stefan who hit the ball sweetly from the penalty spot over the advancing keeper to give him a well deserved hat-trick. The fifth arrived when Julian ran down the left and played the ball into Stefan who laid it off for Peggy to hit it into the keepers top left hand corner.
The boys throughly deserved the points and special praise to Stefan who not only scored the three goals but put in a performance of non-stop effort, and deservidly gets this blogs award of man of the match.
