E-mail And Match Report From Taplow United
Roger, What a fantastic game!Good luck for the rest of the season.John Murphy
Real Milan 2 Taplow United 5
'New look' Taplow eventually won through against a quality Real Milan side but were made to work hard all the way. The match was everything a great game of football should be, the quality and ferocity of tackes from both sides was tremendous yet only one free kick was awarded the whole game, a credit to the sportsmanship and commitment of both sets of players.
Taplow 'came out of the blocks' quickly and enjoyed early pressure opening the scoring after just five minutes through Dan Fleet who just a minute later sent a 20 yard screamer just wide of the post. Milan fought back superbly levelling the score from long range and after a good spell during which they had Taplow hemmed in,took the lead just before half time.
Taplow keeper James Brooker had no chance with either goal.
The restart saw a rampant Taplow equalise through a Dan Fleet lob and take the lead when Ben Nathan capped a fine debut with a quality finish, all within a couple of minutes of the restart.Milan had little choice but to come out, the subsequent gaps at the back were exposed ruthlessly with Dan Fleet scoring two more fine goals, four goals inside 35 minutes!.
Not enough to win him man of the match though, that honour went to the magnificent Suki Bains who alongside Nathan Tate, Joe Chomiak and Josh Terry stood firm against everything Milan could throw at them.Taplow skipper Aaron Stanmore refused to sulk at being put on the bench and when he came on gave a performance to present the manager with yet another selection headache. This was the case also with Diddy Doyle and Ryan Davies who waited their turn came and as players tired and were magnificent.A great TEAM effort!!
