Waterhall

Fairwater 2 - 3 Pentwyn Dynamos
                                       Gibbins
                                       Willis
                                       Swabey


A hard fought game saw us 1 nil down to a debatable penalty inside 15 mins. We rallied and began to play the Dynamos way - passing & moving - and began to take a foothold. A combination of good defending and great goalkeeping from Fairwater kept the score at 1-0 at halftime. We came out cold for the second half and quickly found ourselves 2 nil down against a team really finding their rhythm, but weathered the storm and began to fight back.

A solo effort from Daniel Gibbins, taking on 3 defenders and cooly slotting home had us back in it with 20 mins to go - but could we mount an unlikely comeback?
Yes we could! With 15 mins remaining we really started to dominate, Fairwater put 5 across the midfield and battled to hold on, but Gibbins picked out a great run from Sam Willis with a ball over the top. Willis still had it all to do as the ball dropped 25 yards out - but hammered a stunning volley into the roof of the net - 2-2!
We were really in control now as Fairwater heads dropped and kept piling on the pressure and with minutes reamaining, they failed to clear and the ball dropped to Daniel Swabey - he made no mistake and secured all 3 points.
