Wankas Fade Late

WFC once again rued early missed opportunities and failed to take maximum points. Starting the first half with a very strong wind at their backs, WFC attacked non-stop for the opening 45 minutes. WFC saw many opportunities go begging, as their sharpness in front of goal remains to be found. 0-0 at the break.

WFC picked up the 2nd half where they ended the first and began to create more opportunities. Good passing and movement up the left flank saw Ross Kenyon collect the ball 40 yards from goal, beat a couple defenders, and then slot home. Not long after, a similar play on the right side saw Ross Kenyon get to the byline before sliding a ball across the 6 yard box, which Ross Klippel side-footed in. Unfortunately, a 2-0 lead is dangerous for WFC. A counter-attack saw AmaZulu's best attacking threat isolated on the left wing. Matt Collins seemingly did enough to slow his progress, but the attacker unleashed a 35-yard rocket that was simply unstoppable. This goal galvanized the Zulus, while undermining the confidence of the WFC goalie and defense. The midfield failed to possess the ball, causing more chaos at the back. A tying goal was inevitable as bickering and general malaise crept into the yellow shirts. Failing to keep their composure, WFC were forced to hold on near the end in order to keep a point instead of claiming all 3 deservedly. Final: 2-2

Scoring: Ross Kenyon (unassisted), Ross Klippel (Ross Kenyon)
