MATCH EPORT - CUP GAME 1 - SAT 16 DECEMBER

ROCKETS 2 - 6 JETS

Our Jets inflicted our first defeat on the season as they took the game away from us in the second quarter, scoring 4 quick fire goals.

At 1-1, after scoring first through Rory, then game was fairly even although Jets were showing the same passing composure we'd seen playing Ellesmere Port.

In the second quarter we lost our midfield and defensive shape and organisationally we left too much space. Jets scored 4 goals, including 1 from the half-way line which no-one can defend.

Once we had reorganised the game had already gone but we scored again through Harry and will have learned a lot today about positions, tracking back and keeping our shape. Also Paul commented that we need to consider which player partnerships work and which don't as if we go too attacking we leave too much space at times.

So overall a disappointing result but plenty of lessons learnt hopefully and we will look to improve the score line in the reverse fixture later in the season.
