Reserves lose narrowly at Vulcan

We started off really well after a good warm up and going 1-0 up within 15 minutes though a Jaime Alty goal.
However at 1-0 up Vulcan started to get in our players’ heads, leaving the leg in on tackles and with their first team staying to watch there was no shortage of encouragement for their mates.
First goal, and our movement to screen the through-ball was poor and they played a 40-yard pass along the floor and won a corner from which they scored as we didn't pick up.
Then our heads fell off and we once again tried to call an offside and stood there whilst they continued to attack and scored. for their second goal meaning we went into the break 2-1 down.
Second-Half we start brightly and Fitzy scores a worldly to make it 2-2.
We then made subs but again all got involved with the shenanigans on the pitch rather than play their normal game which eventually resulted in Vulcan hitting another 30-yard through-ball to their striker who finished to win the game.
All-in-all it was another learning curb for the lads but at the end of the day, they need to listen to what the management is saying as there is a real gd team in there that when we get that right will be fighting at the top of the table.
Vulcan rewarded the man of the match to Billinge’s striker to  
Junior Siyakholwa.
