Oh my what a game boys. Arlesey did not have a shot on goal in the entire match; no corners, no goal kicks with Bradley touching the ball just 3 times - once for a penalty and 2 from long balls through. Even with many of their first team back on the pitch for the second half, they barely managed to get outside their half.
Louis and John collected the ball and played it wide for many many attacks and we could of had 20. Hat trick number 2 for Marley with goals for George, Callum and Bradley and Ryan toying with their defence - it was a true all round performance with every player involved in super attacking football.
