A much better performance last night, first half especially we were electric at times and Murphy had 15/20 minutes where he was completely unplayable, although I'd like him to try and stay on his feet more. He got a couple of soft fouls but was throwing himself to the ground for the potential penalty when it looked like he could have carried on. The first goal had class running right through it and it was all done at pace which was great to see. Bate was excellent, Long had a tough time against Stockley and although he didn't win much in the air he made it too hard for Stockley to win anything cleanly as well as some nice touches going forwards. When we were messing around with 5 at the back I'm surprised he didn't get many goes as the rampaging third centre back as it's in his locker.
Saying all this though I'm certainly pleased Rak-Sakyi and Leaburn didn't appear until the second half, Rak-Sakyi in particular was causing all sorts of havoc down his side. I've been critical of McGinty previously but he could do nothing for the goal and made a great save from Leaburn to keep us ahead.
