MOTOROA AFC (1) V FDMC CENTRAL FINANCE (2)
FDMC recorded an early pre season victory against Motoroa AFC with a very controlled and mature performance that saw them take a 2-0 lead, both goals coming from the boot of Stephen KIBBY. The first a clinical strike following a goal mouth scramble and a second was quickly added with a well taken penalty.
FDMC contained their opponents well and restricted them to few real chances whilst continuing to create a number of good goal scoring opportunities at the other end - the pace and power of forwards Morgan HALL and Tomas MOSQUERA a constant threat. However, Motoroa struck back just before half time with Team Taranaki Captain, Jared McElhannan grabbing a spectacular goal against the run of play with a long range strike from just outside the box.
Motoroa enjoyed more posession early in the second half but dogged defensive work and two fine saves from keeper Stefan WALSH preserved the one goal advantage. As the second half developed, both HALL and MOSQUERA continued to threaten the Motoroa defence at will and both players were unfortunate not to extend the lead on a number of occassions as FDMC finished strongly to record a well deserved and historic win.
