Hayden Turner (4), Mark Richards, Tallan Mitchell, HT 4-0
SOUTH WEST PENINSULA LEAGUE PREMIER WEST
TUESDAY 22ND SEPTEMBER 2020
AT TRUNGLE PARC
The Seagulls made it four league wins out of four, with Hayden Turner catching the eye with a four goal haul, but this was a complete team performance full of intensity, speed, passing, movement and a gritty determination to keep and win back the ball.
How it happened – the key moments:
2 mins: GOAL to Mousehole: Hayden Turner’s penalty just eludes keeper Jordan Duffey’s outstretched dive, the spot kick awarded for a last-ditch foul after Turner and Tallan Mitchell break through the visitors’ offside trap.
11mins: Close – Tallan Mitchell shoots wide from 8 yards after a scintillating right-sided move and Hayden Turner’s low cut-back
20 mins: Save – Seagulls’ keeper Dom Angove at the other end goes full length to palm a strong header from Sam Cooper round the post following a corner
22 mins: GOAL to Mousehole, now 2-0: A rare goal for centre back Mark Richards as he prods home from inside the six yard box after a well-worked short corner on the left.
23 mins: Another GOAL, now 3-0: Hayden Turner accelerates between the two centre backs from 40 yards out, rounds the advancing keeper and slots into the empty net
40 mins: GOAL, 4-0: Turner again, this time latches on to a lofted pass for a one-on-one with Duffey and strokes the ball low into the far corner for a well-earned hat-trick
43 mins: Save – Dom Angove is called into action with a flying save from a fierce 10-yard shot by left back Jack Tribble as St Blazey venture upfield
44 mins: Close – Jude Boyd nearly opens his account for the season as he shows great speed to fashion a chance down the middle, but lobs just over the bar as the keeper comes out
Half-time: Mousehole 4-0 St Blazey
48 mins: GOAL, 5-0: Tallan Mitchell drives into the top corner from the centre of the box as Kieran Toland and Josh Magin skilfully open up the defence on the right hand side
57 mins: Close – Jude Boyd’s run and shot is matched by Jordan Duffey who tips it over the bar
59 mins: Close again – Duffey goes full length to keep out Hayden Turner’s 18-yard left-footer
60 mins: Close once more – Kieran Toland is eager to get in on the goal action and his dipping swerving shot just clears the crossbar
62 mins: GOAL, 6-0: Hayden Turner’s timing, movement and pace earn him an opening past the covering defender and his low drive just inside the far post from 15 yards brings him his fourth goal on the night
63 mins: Mousehole substitution – Josh Magin is replaced by Kian Burns
69 mins: Mousehole substitution – Hayden Turner is replaced by Gerens James
76 mins: Mousehole substitution – Jude Boyd is replaced by Tom Hands, with Josh Otto moving from left back to right wing
