He came into the Grove technical area and was asked to leave for some calm, but like the great man he is persisted to stay and at one point got in the Grove's coaches face and had to be pulled away.
Oh but it doesn't end there, after the game while grove players are walking off he goes on the pitch and has another crack -- Acted like a moron, looked like a moron put a dampener on Pontians win. Some people just cant let go I spose.
Why not post a report about the game??? anyone from Grove want to talk about that??? Two post or three posts, 4 great saves from your keeper and a missed penalty??? Oh thats right not worth talking about the reason we were there...
Here you go then.
Elizabeth Grove vs Pontian Eagles
PONTIAN Eagles have ended a four game winless run with a 2-1 win over Elizabeth Grove at Dauntsey Rd.
Both sides came into the game searching for their first win since round one and it was Pontian who started the better taking the lead on 15 minutes when Novica Mimic collected the ball at the back post before making some room for himself and firing the visitors 1-0 up.
The lead was doubled on 25 minutes when a cross was only semi cleared and Mimic was on hand to finish from 18 yards and collect his 2nd brace in as many weeks.
Pontian were on top and when striker Anthony Matteo’s shot rattled the cross bar the Peckers were trying to hang on.
After the break Pontian continued their dominance but couldn’t put the home team away.
On 80 minutes Pontian won a penalty when Matteo was taken down in the box but Matteo’s spot kick was kept out by Anthony Hulls.
The Grove were sparked into life by substitute Nathan Pettit and when he whipped in a ball from out wide Lindsay Cooper’s shot was blocked by the keeper but Cooper reacted quickest to give the Peckers a life line.
It was a nervy last few minutes for Pontian who had given away a three goal lead the previous week but they held on to collect what may prove a vital three points at the end of the season.
Pontian coach George Kargiotis “We are showing at the start of games that we are switched on but we need to continue that into 2nd halves. I’m very pleased with the win”.
Elizabeth Groves Shane Ferdinand “The whole club is really disappointed with the result we push on to Elizabeth Vale next week”.
And by the way the Pontian supporter was a disgrace and your marshall should realise he is representing your club when he puts on that vest.
