Ouzo F.C

SOCCER CITY - ETOBICOKE:  Entering our next game Ouzo brought in a respectable unbeaten record and a strong goal difference with all facets of the team contributing equally. A little apprehensive to begin, Ouzo wanted to continue the high level of football they have been accustom to. Having controlled the game for the first ten minutes without really putting Freedom under pressure, Ouzo went a goal down due to our soft play.

I can only put this down to the Friday night scheduling of the game. A fact the team only realized later in the bar after few pints with Anderson's stunning realization that "it was Friday but felt like Sunday’. Why it took us this long to work out, I am unsure!

However, this was to be the turning point. With our mantra of 'beers and wings' being repeated on the sidelines Ouzo confidently stepped up the pace. Stronger tackling in the D, better possession in the middle and a cool finishing touch up front with Rusnov, our new resident goal poacher/hog, even pulling out a schinitzelhawkesque  toe-poke. By half time we were in a convincing position and ended up running out 10-1 come from behind winners. 3 pint (sorry point) nights for Di-laney, Rusnov and Behn. 

Special mentions goes to Sac for his second goal in 3 weeks and 3rd in 5 years after a classic wing back run straight into the post where the ball would hit him and go in and Di-laney phantom assisted goal who everyone would claim but no-one could/would confirm!!!!

All that was left was to go celebrate our victory at Wingers. Our mantra had seen us through but it was soon noted that we were two shy!!  Had Stu and Phil defected to the bulls? As painful as it was to watch and no matter how bad the shirt they wore, we still supported them.........and management accordingly fined them penalty pitchers!!! That just Proves we are Ouzo for life (TM)

The bar was closed down with final 4 of Rob, Rusnov, Spence and some guy called Pete Tong.

We now go on to a top of the table clash with Mirage on Sunday....
