Stormy conditions overhead, and treacherous conditions underfoot made Currie Stars game this morning away against EastHouse difficult to say the least.
Especially given a couple of the lads had forgotten their boots so had to play in their astros and consequently spent a fair chunk of the game on their butt's.
After a dodgy start to the game where an avoidable early goal was lost, Currie regrouped and pushed hard for the equaliser, this came midway through the first half. The Star then went on to control the possession and territory in that half and were unlucky to see the interval at 1 - 1 and not a goal or two to the good.
The second half brought a change in fortunes, maybe the switch of sides benefitted the home team, the wind seemed to be blustering right across the pitch though. In any case Easthouse hit Currie Star with two quick goals to take the game by the scruff of the neck at 3 - 1. To their credit the Currie lads stuck to their task and got themselves back into the game with a goal born out of pressure leading to forced errors, 3 - 2. After that the game flowed between pressure to get the equaliser and dangerous looking breaks by Easthouse. No more scores to be had however as the game finished 3 - 2 to the home side. Well done to them ( i believe that was their first win of the season ) and well done to Currie Star for good work and some decent stuff in harsh conditions - It will build up the stamina in their legs if nothing else.
