Westwood Dolphins 7 - 2 Silsden B
Sunday 2nd March 2008
The Dolphins got back on track with this emphatic victory. Ben Craig moved forward to provide a goalscoring focus for the team who responded with great passing from first Callum Armitage then Tyler Fletcher to get the ball up for Ben's first goal. Silsden had started brightly and got the better of the initial sparring but three more quick goals from Ben turned the match in the Dolphins' favour. The threat he posed up front was rewarded with a second. He stole a loose ball from the keeper's grasp for his third then finished from a tight angle for the fourth. At the other end, Josh Harding was a more than capable replacement in goal, pulling off a series of saves like a regular keeper.
Silsden pulled a couple back but straight after the second restart the Dolphins quickly moved the ball through the centre for Tyler Fletcher to finish. Tyler added a final goal to the tally but man of the match had to be Ben, whose consistent hard work inspired the rest of the team.
