The Spring 2012 season kicked off as planned on April 1st against Needham United. The team came out on a slow pace @ the start which caused a key mishap in the defense between "Damian" & "Desi". This key mistake gave Needham an early 1-0 lead. The goal made our team more aware of Needham's intensity & gave us more confidence to get settled in the game & get a goal before the half.
Needham kept the pressure going with a well organised build up from their defense & midfield play. Allstars F.C. made key adjustments after the goal to deal with Needham's midfield play, a speedy forward & their aggressive style.
With that key adjustment, Allstars F.C. midfield player "Dexter" made an impressive run down the wing & crossed a beautiful ball to "St. John" in the 18 yard box, who's 1st touch was phenomenal & enabled him to spank the ball with placement & power to tie the game @ 1-1.
With the game tied @ 1-1 both teams play became more intense with Needham making an attempt to score again from a thru pass only to be denied by Allstars goalkeeper "Suppah Don". With that save Allstars goalkeeper made a lovely 40 yards outlet pass to "Vinnie" who then played it to "Bling" then a wall pass to "St. John" who was fouled by the Needham defense @ 35 yards out.
"Bling" stepped up to the plate & nailed a sweet 35 yard free-kick into the top of the 90 degree angle of the goal, which put Allstars F.C. 2-1 @ halftime.
In the second half both teams kept the pressure & aggressive play going; Both teams made key attempts to score but only Allstars F.C. seemed to come very close a few times with shots from "St. John", "Dodger", "Fancy", "Leon", and "Bling". To no avail guys could not put their shots in the back of the net & finished the game with a VERY good win & secure 3 points to kick the season off.
