| FLIXTON 2-5 FC UNITED It was coming, and on tuesday night in the kind of place FCUM are gonna get used to it finnally came. The first goal in the clubs history and hopefully the first of many wins. Another great following somehow found their way to the little ground of Flixton's and were once again in fine voice a with plenty of banter. United kicked off the game as they were meaning to go on getting at Flixtons defence quickly, and within 10 minutes the deadlock was broken. The man who people are gonna remember is Steve Torpey, and what a first goal it was a 25 yard left footer lashed right across goal giving keeper swanson no chance! And Torpey wasn't waiting around to be on for his hatrick within about 5 minutes he'd duly slotted home number two from the penalty spot. Jonathan Mitten broke clear and thought he'd made it 3-0 only to be dubiouslly called offside. A mix up by keeper Priestley allowed Flixton an easy tap into an empty net before the break, but United came out of the blocks in the second half flying. Every loose ball, every tackle had the reds running there hearts out to make it, especially Torpey who was just giving his all till being subbed. United made it 3-1 when midfielder Steve Spencer headed home from close range and ended up in the back off the net too, and mobbed by the many ecstatic reds behind the goal. Adie Orr made it 4-1 when some dodgy Flixton defending left Adie with an easy finish for his first for the club. Flixton managed to pull another back through a cool finish by Chris Denham. The scoring was rounded up when a by then tired Flixton defence where at sixes and sevens leaving substitute Greg Randles an easy tap in. A fantastic performance by the lads and great show of how well they can do in their first season, bring on Leek CSOB!! and the NWCL2!! |
