Garnett turned on the style in the first period of the
Calvert Cup semi-final after going 1-0 down early on.
Manager Pendlebury described the first period as the best Garnett A
have played all season, Garnett started with a hangover from Saturday
BBC Final loss to Newcastle City and went 1-0 down. However, Garnett
then started to pass the ball out from the defence and control possesion
more and soon were level when Young blasted an unstoppable 20 yard drive
into the top corner. Garnett were in control and running the game and
in the process played some lovely stuff. Young made it 2-1 after unselfish
play from Bell, and Bell himself made it 3 just before half-time after
a beautiful ball from Almond.
3-1 at half-time and Garnett were crusing, in the second half Chemfica
pushed 3 up front but Garnett defended well and didn't give away a single
clear cut chance. However, Chemfica did get a goal from a shot from
distance that took a wicked bounce past the injured Harty. Garnett secured
the win when Young finished well after the opposition keeper had spilled
Mercer's shot.
Garnett dream of the double is on.
