Bella Vista FC

The weekend action started with Fuego and Bonte at Sacks at high noon.  Fuego, armed with everyone sans Keith “sunshine”, controlled much of the midfield.  Bonte played with 9 in the first half, and 10 in the second half.  The strategy for Bonte was counter attack and set plays.  Early opportunities fell for the burritos with some fabulous through balls which barely missed the target.  Eventually, a counter attack gave Andy a freekick which ended in the net.  It was 1-0 Bonte at the half.  Fuego came out strong as habanero, inclined bring the score level.  One obvious chance was Elana’s shot off the post after she was one-on-one with Josh the Bonte Keep.  Bonte’s D played like warriors, with Geoff, Leah, Daniel, Adam and Steffen proving to be a solid wall against the maestros Riqui and Zach.  The addition of Glenn for Bonte proved valuable when he put a second one in from 25 yards.  The score was 2-0 Bonte.  Nachman, the Israeli international, was a thorn in the Fuego side playing through balls and creating chances.  Thank you Conrad for great reffing.

At 2pm, Vesuvio defeated an undermanned Brauhaus squad yesterday by a score of 5-0. Goals were scored by Mike Geller (2), Scott H, James and Marcus. Thanks to Conrad for reffing.  No further details of the game are available.

In an entertaining and well played game on Sunday, Race Street came away with a 5-1 victory over BVFC.  Race Street took an early lead with Heri Ali scoring on a breakaway following a through ball from Cullen Meade.  Moments later, Race Street made it 2-0, when Heri set up Vatche Manoukian all alone in front of the net.  BVFC, to their credit, continued to work hard at creating chances, but the Heri-Vatche connection proved to be too much, as the strikers worked well together, each adding a second goal.  Cullen rounded out the scoring for Race Street.  Anthony Williams scored for BVFC off a low, well struck corner from Q.   Thanks to Jerry for referring, and thanks to all the players for a clean and well played game.  Q commented: “Good summary for a well played game by Race!  Despite the continued losses, BV still manages to get players to show up and work hard.  Gandhi once said, Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.  For better or worse, this quote nicely covers both our poor performances and excellent effort.”
