Feeder Soccer 0 - 3 Hampton Whites

The Whites remain third in the table with an impressive away win over a strong Feeder Soccer team. A first half goal from Bradley followed by two more from Cameron and Jamie in the second period saw the Whites move into third - two points behind second, with a game in hand.

The game was not without controversy. With moments remaining in the first-half, the unusually attired referee gave the Whites a penalty kick for a Feeder backpass in the area, before consulting with the Feeder manager and then changing the decision to a direct free-kick, in the box. Whites coach Glen politely registered his protest with the referee from the sidelines to no avail. Nonetheless, Bradley took the free kick and lashed home the rebound. 

In the second-half, Hampton applied plenty of pressure and could have scored more than Cameron's angled drive and Jamie's clever flick past the outmaneuvered Feeder custodian. A couple of goalmouth scrambles got the supporter's hearts racing and the keeper grimacing in Dami-applied stud-induced agony. 

The defence kept it tight with another trusty display from Thomas and Dylan in front of shot-stopper Lucas, who seems to grow with confidence match-by-match. He'll be pleased with another clean sheet. 

Next match is against Yaxley at home on the 4th February. 

The Whites defence close down Feeder's nippy attacker

"IF EVERYBODY DOES AS I SAY ... NO ONE GETS HURT"

Just a little touch on the right and I can get it to balance, look everyone! 

Dylan competes Bradley as back-up

Niftly little throw-in-saving-drag-back-move-skills-action going on here..

Controversial direct free kick time..The ball rebounds off Keeps to give Bradley a second bite of the cherry..

...which he takes. The resulting goal gives the Ref his chance to do his favourite part of the job.. 

SCRAMBLE!!! I hope the defender doesn't have nightmares about football boots flying into his face...

Pick that out! Cameron drives home number two!

Reece being cool on the ball..

Two-tenths of a second separated the keeper from Cameron's boot.

Been there..done that. Jamie's big brother.

A Hampton free kick and Jamie positions himself  right in keepers personal space. Ball comes in - keeper can't get it - Jamie can. 3-0!


Dylan cops a heavy one and his family watch the aftermath. 

Aside from being a top coach, Glen is also the Hampton Emergency Recovery Operative. Or HERO for short. 8, Dami and 4 learn a little bit more about being men as they look on.

On the break with William as Ben directs play. The referee is wearing a coat.

When something hits you that travels as fast as Dami, it is always going to hurt..

Now for some maths .. 1+6+2+4+8+7+5+5 =  goalmouth action!

Chase it, Son!
