Game 2: XX 4 (Mat x2, Cam x2) : DD 3 (Ed, Josh (OG), Woody)
Game 3: XX 5 (Mat x2, Joshx3) : DD 2 (Spikes x2)
This match was slated for an 11am start but the teams only started lining up at quarter past 12!!!
Game 1: Xing Xang 2 (Josh x2) : Dip Dye 2 (Spikes x2)
Shit loads of standing water on court with DD sitting deep and waiting to hit on the break. The first goal arrived via Spikes when a deflected shot from XX sent him through goal.
The rain was persistent and with DD holding a good defence, XX shots were either saved or just aquaplanted in the puddles! Josh finally got the equaliser with 7 minutes gone.
DD stuck to their plans, just waiting for the ball to break. The next move saw Spikes and Woody changing passes and the former slotting through 2 BBs to put DD up with about 5 minutes to go.
There were lots of shots raining down on DD's goal, but Woody and Ed were both solid in goal while Spikes was using the water well withattempted clearances ending upwithwater on the opponents faceson more than one occasion.
DD could have sealed the game with 3 minutes to go but Ed shot just wide after pushing out from goal. It was XX keeping the ball and drawing players out, it worked and Josh got sloyted in the equaliser with less than a minute on the clock.
