The game was fairly evenly matched early on, a mistake at the back gifted Reddish a goal 0-1. Midway through the first half a cross from the left was nodded back across the keeper for 2-0. Following some intense pressing up the pitch by Rovers one long ball over the top set their forward on goal (at least 2 yards offside) for 0-3. Rovers had a steep climb. Despite appearances Rovers created a few clear cut chances that weren't put away.
At half-time the main difference between the sides was clinical finishing. G asked us to win the second half.
Rovers went after Reddish in the second half though Reddish were still looking to kill the game off themselves. A great save from Priceys effort came from their keeper. Miguel curled a superb freekick to the top corner that was spectacularly saved by their keeper. A header from a corner hit the bar and then their players arm, Pricey smashed home the penalty 1-3. With seconds remaining Owens spectacular overhead kick went straight across goal.
Another painful Sunday for Rovers, however the second half performance gave big glimpses of the Rovers of last season: stubborn resistance at the back and always looking to tear teams apart going forward. If we start defending from the front as a unit like we did today, improve communication and start being clinical in front of goal there's no reason we can't go on a winning run.
