[Sat 12th Sep] Cup Semi v Pembroke

Scotch A 3 – 2 Pembroke A Goals: Dave 2, Toby A hot and windy day greated us for our semi final encounter with Pembroke. The previous few days had seen us lose our two first choice wingers, but saw the return of our defensive rock Dunsy. Thankfully, it looked like Pembroke had muzzled the one or two morons who had commentated so colourfully on our previous encounter. With the wind blowing directly from end to end it was always going to be a big factor. Ferg did the right thing and won the toss, giving us this early advantage. Despite us having the wind, Pembroke had the bulk of the possession for the start of the first half. It took an inspired formational change from Rev to bring us back into the game, with Dave scoring a cracker from a flicked on ball from Toby. For the remainder of the first half we played well, with few clear chances either way. The second half started in the best possible fashion, with a crossed ball to Chris coming free. Toby somehow managed to latch on to the errant ball, curly it into the top corner from the edge of the box. From that point on, Pembroke lifted a gear and started coming hard at us. The third goal of the game was another cracker, coming from a Pembroke midfielder. Al could do nothing but watch it sail into the top corner. Shortly after, Pembroke grabbed another, with a low shot beating Al at the near post. At the end of regular time it was 2-2 and the Scotchie boys had dropped their heads. Ferg once again won the toss and Pembroke looked the most likely in the first half of extra time. The second half saw some very tired Scotchies take the pitch, with Pembrokes fitness showing through. From nothing, a long ball was flicked on by Chris to find Toby running up the middle. A slide tackle from behind by Case saw us gain a free-kick on the very edge of the box. Dave stepped up and made no mistake with the free-kick. 3-2 Scotch, against the run of play. The last few minutes produced a few anxious moments for the Scotchies, with a seemingly legitimate penalty claim thankfully turned down by the ref. A great win, getting us into our second consecutive cup final. Thanks to all the players who all put in a massive effort, most of them for 120 minutes.
