North Petherwin 2 - 7 Torpoint Athletic

Torpoint goal scorers: Easterbrook x3, Westall x2, Ross & Taylor.

What a difference a week can make. Same opponents a weekend apart and a disappointing loss last week to joyous in the Intermediate Cup today. An aggregate score of 6-8.

Same squad available as last weekend except losing Sidey in goal to deputise for our 1st Team where he kept a clean sheet at home vs Buckland. So Matt Westall stepped in for today's game. For the 10 outfielders who remained unchanged, the chance for redemption. And boy did they get it.

The advantage we had over our hosts was that we had a few lessons identified from last weekend to address and try to nullify, i.e.. the pace in behind from Sharpe. So today we defended slightly deeper and any loss of possession our centre halves were asked to retreat and really decrease the distance between them and Westall in goal. No space behind = no threat. Simple. North Petherwin however had no such advantage, as we were so impotent last weekend they only had hope we'd be as poor again. Notably, they were also missing Gyamfi and their colossus at left back from last week. 

But it wasn't to be for the home side and we had an immediate reaction and were 0-3 within 25mins. Cam Ross on his 3rd start for us from the 3rd team opened the scoring around 8mins in when stepping inside the box on the left hand side to smash low into the corner, then became provider. A goal of everything we discussed pre-game, he was slid in down the right wing to the byline and his delicious low cross was slotted home by Easterbrook in the 6 yard box. Westall then made it 3 skipping past a tackle 12yds out before firing home. A number of corners created problems but didn't add to our tally just yet. Petherwin weren't done though, and on 39mins a lofted free kick from inside halfway to the back post was headed home by skipper Reeve, who is excellent in the air. But the comeback was squashed quickly as we restored our 3 goal lead before the break with Jimi Taylor adding a 4th from 18yds out after Westall had neatly laid the ball back. 1-4 HT.

A halftime break discussing what we did right, to expect a reaction and some pressure, and deal with it. But 3mins from the restart we scored again which is more than we could've asked for. Westall broke free down the right evading the keeper and with loads of time and space crossed the ball to the back post for Easterbrook to volley home under pressure. By 55mins he had his hat trick, Ross again the creator. With the first of the subs introduced, we made it 1-7 before 70mins with Copp racing round Easterbrook on the overlap to whip in for Westall to get his 2nd. Their 2nd linkup in 2wks, albeit very different. With all 5 subs on it remained 1-7 until late on when Petherwin pulled one back with a few mins remaining. 

With a few results in the league going our way as well it was a good day all round for us, and a performance we knew we were capable of and want to see every game. But that's football. Onto the Cup 1/4 final now where we hope for our first home draw of the season or a coach worthy away trip. But first we have 3 league fixtures beginning away at Sticker next weekend. All the best to the Badger and North Petherwin for the rest of their season.

What a difference a week makes. Last week we were excellent but Saturday absolutely rubbish, worst performance I've had from the lads in the 2.5 years i have been at Petherwin.  You fully deserved the win Cal, well done and good luck in the next round.
