Five-Seven Fiasco

Game 5, November 24

YC&AC 5 v Korean Connection 7

This was ridiculous. 3-1 up, 4-2 up, 5-3 up… Then somehow, final quarter, 5-7 down. 5-7! That’s not a football score, it’s the syllable count for the first two lines of a haiku poem. The perfect excuse to keep this short!

The goals:

———-

Who’s that scoring with
A header? Far stick hell bells
It’s Buddy Ferrie!

———-

Fredrik Ljungberg?
Make me laugh. Anders Sjostedt
He’s world class! Two-one.

———-

Dodgy defending
Fancy feet fool the keeper
Marcos Perreira

———-

Alex Hendy times
His run, kills the square ball, jinks
Into the box, shoots

———-

Who got the other?
Let me know. Leave a comment
Before you go. Ta.

UPDATE: Buddy Ferrie got the other.

    didn’t buddy get two?!
    and, technically speaking, to round out the stanzas,

    Own-goals were there too:
    Gary slid it in the net
    And Thor copied him.

    So tell us, Buddy,
    Did you get two? The Golden
    Slipper could be you!
