Ready for Aioli !

Unbeaten since November 2016, OG was eager to win this game to prepare our clash against Aioli next week, and keep the battle for the 4th position open. We knew that Nippon will cause us a lot of trouble and that despite their position in the league table they remain a dangerous team to play against. Therefor the players started to game focused in order to avoid what we have done in our last 4 games against them; chasing the score. Game was even during the first half with both team having their moment. However OG was more accurate in the last pass allowing Ouss and after Hugo to give us the lead. The first goal came from a good work on the right wing, finding Sam who manage to get into the box and found Ouss via a strong low cross. Ouss cut the ball in front of the defender to beat the keeper from close range. Second goal came from a long ball from Mab and after a solo effort, Hugo found the opposite bottom corner to make it 2-0 at HT. Second half was the same story. An even game despite Nippon holding most of the ball but leaving space in counter attacks which we converted into a 3rd goal. A good work on the left wing that released Ali in the channel. He manage to be quicker than the keeper to beat him from just outside the box. Nippon game back into the game and after a few alert and good save from Yohan, they got a goal they deserved to come back into the game with 20 to go. Fortunately we did not let them hope fr long when Remi manage to release Iliass with a ball into the back of the defense. Again Ilias was faster than the running keeper and just touched the ball enough to convert the chance to make it 4-1. Nippon did not give up and scored a 2nd one to smooth the defeat. Overall a deserved win. We manage to increase the peace when needed and control the remaining of the game and exploit the spaces in 2nd half to kill the game. A good and fair game from both team and the ref, despite a clear penalty not whistled for handball at 3-0. Hopefully it had no impact on the final result. MOM OG: Yohan in goal who did well to clear a few chances and we thanks him to come over with a 1 hour notice. MOM Nippon: Their striker who came in in second half. His speed caused us a lot of trouble as the goal scorer sheet can show.
