Pentwyn Dynamos 4 - 2  AFC Rumney Juniors
Willis
Swabey (2)
Foulkes

No real problems this week as we produced a '3rd Gear' performance, doing just what was required to win the match. We started the game well, controlling the early possesion and looking as 3 mins later the ball dropped to Sam Willis on the penalty spot and he drilled a shot into the corner and claim his 8th goal of the season - 1-1. Despite continuing to control the game we went in at half time level.

A couple of changes at half time saw Sam Azu make way for debutant Will Fry and Josh Harvey continued his comeback from injury replacing Owen Evans. 

Will Fry was to prove pivotal in all that was good about our 2nd half performance, seeking out the ball and using his passing ability and excellent ball control to great effect. Within 10 mins of his arrival we were in the lead. He picked up the ball on the half way line and cut outside his man sending a searching ball down the line to Daniel Swabey, he quickly passed inside to Sam Willis, who returned the favour as he made his run through on goal - Swabey cooly slotted the ball home as the 'keeper advanced, 2-1.


Next, a fine solo run from Christopher Viney coming over from his wide right berth to the left, came ever so close to a great goal sadly his cross-cum-shot went inches wide.

The next goal was the move of the match. Caine Morse played a ball up to Daniel Gibbins on the halfway line, he cut inside and laid it off to Charlie Foulkes. Foulkes played the ball out left to Will Fry, Fry went past his man to the edge of the box, shimmied and weighted a perfect pass into Foulkes who had continued his run and made no mistake as he hit the ball across the 'keeper into the net, a 5 pass move to make it 3-1!

Goal number 4 came again from good work from Will Fry, probing down the left exchanging passes with Charlie Foulkes, receiving the ball back as Daniel Swabey made a great run off the shoulder of the last man - as the keeper came out Swabey poked the ball home, 4-1 and we were buzzing now. 

Minutes later Daniel Gibbins skipped past his marker and teed up Charlie Foulkes for a 20 yard screamer - only for the 'keeper to tip over - a fine save.

We took our foot off the gas as the minutes ticked down and allowed Rumney to get a consolation goal - well worked though it was - to end the match 4-2.

Special mentions this week:

Will Fry - An excellent debut - welcome to the club!
Daniel Swabey - 10 goals in 10 games, well done the Swabester!
Callum Patten - just keeps performing every week, well done CB.
