Colony Park  0 - 8   Dyce Boys Club FC

Sunday 5th October 2008

at Port Park, Port Elphinstone

The first five minutes were quite tight with both sides sizing each other up and most of the play being confined to midfield.  Colony were first to break and Archie Mair, in goals, was glad to see a good Colony effort go past his right hand post.  Dyce broke to the other end and Craig Robb brought out a fine save from the Colony stopper with a long range shot.  Jamie Massie made a good run down the left hand side beating a couple of players before the ball was played out for a corner.  Lee McAllister and James Morrison worked a short corner kick routine but Lee's shot was mis-hit and eventually cleared.
 
Lee McAllister played the ball up the line to James Morrison who flashed a cross into the Colony box but after a scramble the danger was cleared.  Innes Copeland won a strong challenge and passed the ball to Jamie Massie on the left who fired in a powerful shot which forced the keeper into another good save.  Dyce were now controlling the midfield and Jamie Massie once again tried his luck from long distance only to see the keeper make another fine stop.  Dyce won a corner and when it was played into the box by James Morrison it was only half cleared and Owen Murison pounced on the loose ball to lash home the rebound.
 
Dyce were now playing some good football pegging Colony Park in their own half.  Intercepting a clearance, Craig Robb drove forward and powerfully shot home.  Jamie Massie made another good run up the left hand side before crossing into the box but the Colony defence coped well and cleared their lines.  Taking a crossfield ball from Owen Murison, Jamie Massie drove forward but once again the Colony keeper saved his shot.  Innes Copeland had to look sharp at the back to stop a quick break away attack from Colony Park.  Owen Murison went on a good run down the right and crossed into the box where Craig Robb was on hand to fire home with his left foot.
 
Lee McAllister was played in from a corner kick and his long range effort found the bottom corner of the net.  Craig Robb was unlucky when his fierce shot beat the keeper but rebounded into play where Lee McAllister was first to the loose ball to prod home from close range.  Liam Murray and Brian Mair, who had just come off the bench, worked a great one-two which saw Liam through on goals and he showed good composure to slip the ball past the advancing keeper.  Nearing the end of the first 25 minute period Jamie Massie at last got his name on the score sheet with a blistering left foot shot which hit the top corner of the net giving the Colony keeper no chance.
 
Half Time:  0  -  7
 
Dyce started the second half on the front foot and Brian Mair tested the Colony keeper with a right foot shot which was saved at the expense of a corner.  Dyce introduced two more substitutes in Josh Low and Harry Ogilvie and a good one-two between Brian Mair and Josh Low saw Brian's shot go narrowly past the post.  Picking the ball up on the left hand side Harry Ogilvie beat his marker before crossing into the box but there were no Dyce takers.  Owen Murison showed great awareness snuffing out a quick break away Colony attack.
 
Winning a strong challenge at the back, Craig Robb drove forward and although his 20 yard shot hit the target the Colony keeper saved.  Jamie Massie took over in goals and allowed Archie Mair to play the final 15 minutes outfield.  A good passing move involving Lee McAllister, Archie Mair and Harry Ogilvie saw the ball played through to Josh Low but his shot was blocked at the expense of a corner.  Brian Mair played the corner to the back post where Harry Ogilvie was on hand to score from close range.
 
Full Time:  0  -  8
 
This was a much improved performance on last week's game.
Well done boys
