ENTERTAINING FOOTBALL ON SHOW AS MOUSEHOLE AND PARKWAY STEP UP PRE-SEASON PREPARATIONS

Mousehole 3-5 Plymouth Parkway

Pre-Season Friendly

Saturday 16th July 2022

At Trungle Parc

 

In the first home match in their pre-season preparations, Mousehole faced opposition from two leagues above, the classy visitors sailing into a 5-0 lead before The Seagulls mounted a stirring comeback to narrow the scoreline thanks to a Hayden Turner hat-trick – an enthralling afternoon for the 132 spectators in cooler conditions than recently.

The goals:

3 minutes:  Parkway’s BILLY PALFREY strikes an immaculate 20-yard free kick into the top left corner

11 minutes:  Jack Crago outpaces everyone on the left to provide a low cross from the byeline which RIO GARSIDE converts with a low shot inside the six-yard box

21 minutes:  The same approach play this time by Ryan Lane creates an unmissable chance for the perfectly positioned RIO GARSIDE.

31 minutes:  Parkway are physical, fast and sharp – RYAN LANE dispossesses Mousehole in midfield and drives deep into defensive territory before placing a low left-foot shot past keeper Ollie Chenoweth for a 4-0 lead.

36 minutes:  Recent signing from Exeter City Ben Seymour speeds into the penalty area on the left and his dangerous low cross bounces into the net off MAX HILL for an unfortunate own goal.

45+3 minutes:  Mousehole reduce the deficit with the last action of the first half:  Tallan Mitchell delivers a low free kick from the left and HAYDEN TURNER scoops the ball left-footed into the net via a defender’s deflection.

Half-time score:  Mousehole 1-5 Plymouth Parkway

49 minutes:  Mousehole get an early goal with a well worked move – Callam Mconie’s lofted cross to the edge of the box is headed on by Reece Thomson for Andy Watkins to supply a low cross from the right and HAYDEN TURNER finishes it off from six yards.  Scoreline now 2-5.

70 minutes:  It’s now 3-5 as HAYDEN TURNER completes a hat-trick, using his pace to intercept a back pass, take the ball round keeper Kyle Moore and coolly slot home from a narrow angle on the right.

Full time score:  Mousehole 3-5 Plymouth Parkway.  The hosts have given their Step 3 Southern League Premier guests a run for their money in this eight-goal football exhibition, and can take many positives from this performance.
