DEA Finally Rights Itself Heading into the Second Half or the Season

Posted by Dale Dubois on May 17 2010 at 05:00PM PDT

From the Captain:

 Can we turn the season around?????Starting the back half of the season DEA wins against a struggling North Reading Cobra team who showed up with 9 players to start and only added another by the half.  After losing to Nashua 2-1 with only 10 DEA players, it was our turn to have numbers.  We clearly dominated play in the first half and quickly got goals from Dave Partridge who scored a quick one, and then about 10 minutes later shot another past the Cobra keeper who was feeling high pressure from the boys in green.  Jim McCall placed the 3rd goal short side to put DEA up 3 – 0 at the half.  Playing at about the same level as their opponents in the second half, we stopped working hard and allowed some opportunities for N. Reading.  They managed to pick up a goal with some lose defensive play as DEA was unable to clear the ball.  Not more than 5 minutes later as Holger came out to the 18 and tried to clear long, only to find a North Reading midfielder who quickly popped a ball over his head into the open net.  With 12 minutes left this brought back memories of an earlier game this season.  DEA then hunkered down and put the nail in the coffin as Mohamad put the 4th goal in as the Cobra keeper could not manage to hold on to the ball. 4 -2 DEA
