// Vicious Slinkies FC 0-1 Decepticons | Match Day Report//
from the dhChornicles | VSFC Soccer Blog by D.R. Higgington
It came down to the last minute in last Wednesday’s 80’s Toy Derby - featuring the Vicious Slinkies and Decepticons. It was a heart breaking goal in the last minutes of the game that undid the Slinkies this time - in what had been a back and forth very offensive match.
The heat came from both sides through the game - each pushing towards the other end. The first half came to an end dead even at nil-nil, in a match that really could have gone either way.
However - with the clock running down - the Decepticons took a determined grip on the game. It was nearly done when an accidentally flubbed goal kick by the usually reliable C. Larson - nearly rolled into his own goal.
The goal did come - moments later when a Decepticon put a powerful shot past Larson at a tough angle. And - while the VSFC pushed back hard - it did not seem to be their night. Larson even came up during the last corner kick of the evening and nearly it off a half volley.
Next week - is a new game however, and the Slinkies will be looking to get back to their winning ways. Next week’s match is at 6:20. The VSFC take on Romance Explosion!
