Plate Cup

On the back of the 2-1 defeat against Nippon last weekend the Vikings team wanted to quickly return to the winning ways. The Vikings started in a 3-5-2 with Mr. Clean Sheet – Jesper So and Domino making a comebacks after a few games out. The Vikings team got off to a great start and dominated the first half with quick short-passing and keeping the ball on the ground. Jesper and Leslie had a few big chances before we finally managed to put the ball in the net. Jesper cut through the left side and after a few bounces and the ball ended up with Leslie who easily put it into the net. A few minutes later Leslie shot again – and although it was somewhat a girlie shot – it ended up in the goal, 2-0 Vikings. A few minutes before the half-time and central midfielder captured the ball a few meters outside the Vikings box. Just before the half Viking got the 3-0 lead with an own goal from St. Andrews. Coach Domino used the half-time break to adjust a few tactical aspects and substitute himself. After ten minutes A nicely curved shot with the left foot left Jesper So stunned, 2-1. 20 minutes into the second half the ball ended up in the Vikings penalty box after a St Andrews free kick. Should have been an easy clearance for the defenders but instead St Andrews scored the 3-2 goal and the game was in danger of opening up again. Well deserved MOM’s go to Leslie and Fredrik for their hard work throughout the game. Thank you to St. Andrews, the referees and the supporters for a fair game.
