Kicked off at 2:00 PM

1-0 long ball from Panashe with Ben off his line he miss judged the ball and the striker scored within seconds.
Starlands then break and Josh back heels but with no one following up it came to nothing.
2-0 break away from half way Darwin slotted home.
Darwin park broke again and crossed but no one there! Praise The Lord!

Marcus then ran down the wing passing back to max who shot over.
Luke and others were playing off side from inside their half ??interesting tactic but it didn't work lol and Darwin were once again Clear away - with a goal making 3-0
4-0 came from another break away attack by Panashe which he slotted tidily.
Panashe then had a shot which was saved by Ben.
Panashe was through and used his hand to control but justice was done with Ben saving from point blank range.
A Through ball to Josh resulted in a snap shot too far out which went wide. He had opportunity to take it much closer.
Then a Darwin corner was volleyed by Panashe which was saved at the near post.
Marcus was then twisting and turning and got a shot away just going wide.
Another break was stopped by Callum who cleared to Max who passed to Kieran to Marcus who had it just taken off his boot at the last minute just as he was about to pull the trigger.
5-0 came with yet another through ball once again to Panashe who slipped it by Ben.
A Break and shot produced a diving save from Ben just pushing it wide with his fingertips.
Starlands then broke with Marcus right up the wing unselfishly crossing to Mason who shot wide. Bless him he had shown great endeavour to get up the field but was just too tired to swing his leg and the ball went agonisingly by him. Relief to Dad who saves £5 goal bonus again!
A Darwin Corner was volleyed and an instinctive save by Ben to his right ! A proper Gordon Banks save !
Panashe made it 6-0 edge of box over Bens head.
Panashe was becoming boring now with 7-0 another individual effort clean through slotted just wide of a despairing dive by Ben.
Panashe through and a low drive hit a divet and bounced up and over Bens out stretched arm to make it 8-0 - very unlucky !
9-0 came from a corner when no one reacted to the ball.
A Kick from Ben and the header was returned by Panashe and a shot by Honey was yet again saved by Ben.
Another 1 on 1 with Ben off his line to save on the edge of the box.
10 was a speculative shot that went out wide and was slipped under Ben whilst in the air from an incoming winger.
11 from another corner - Zak made a good header but again Starlands were second to the ball and the rebound was scored.
Kieran put a big boot up field and Marcus went through on goal shooting from wide and just missing.
Kieran then cleared to Marcus and gorvind who played a one two and Marcus went through on goal only to be blocked by keeper and missed the rebound - He wasjust exhausted and pushed it wide so unlucky ! Deserving of a goal...but that's our luck at the moment.
12-0 another Darwin break Kieran unable to block and it was smashed in the corner.

Starlands were grateful for the final whistle !
Darwin Park Eagles were very much a one man team - and played quite literally with Panache ! Any team would clean up with a kid like that - just a shame we haven't got him !?... Can we get a transfer kitty going??
Oh we'll never mind...
Onwards and upwards boys. BUT be under no illusion IF you are not prepared to work when on that pitch you will lose heavily every week ! You can't leave it all to Callum !! and to stand there with hands on hips , refuse to run , just kick the ball away because it is less effort or talk negatively to team mates THEN DONT BOTHER COMING.
Other than that it was a lovely sunny day on a oversized topsey turvey pitch... With good banter on the sideline as always.
Keep going boys !
