Amazingstoke go goal crazy!

02/01/2010 Division One
AMAZINGSTOKE GOONERS 10
DRAKIES DAZZERLERS 3
at Watchyourwallet Arena
-----------------------------------
Records tumbled as Amazingstoke Gooners clinched the Division One league title following a 9 goal riot in the second half in one of the most bizarre games ever seen on Xpert 11.
Amazingstoke went into the game on a high with promotion ensured and their first major trophy clinched on Wednesday night, they knew that a victory would secure the Division One title. The Dazzerlers on the other hand had nothing to play for having already secured an impressive 5th place in their first season at this level.
Most of the punters were predicting a comfortable home win but the hosts were left stunned as the Dazzerlers struck 3 times in the opening 10 minutes! Within 60 seconds of the start Cameron Carmichael played through Elliot MacDill to put the visitors ahead. Any of the Amazingstoke supporters who arrived late missed the second too! This time it was a Stu McCall header that did the damage. Carmichael again the provider. MacDill then made it 3-0 on 10 minutes with a shot from long range.
The hosts were struggling to come to terms with the scoreline but they did pull one pack fon 35 minutes when Wallace Spink scored a long range effort. It remained 3-1 at half time though and what followed must have been a Winston Churchill like team talk from Prallc, the home sides manager.
Goal number 2 arrived 7 minutes after the interval. It was another long range effort - this time from Kieran Sawyer. Just 2 minutes later the hosts were level, Mairthín Stepney with his 14th goal of the season.
As the game entered the final half hour the visitors would have felt they were still in the game at 3-3 but how mistaken they would prove to be. First Tezer Köylüoglu finished off a quick breakaway, then Spink grabbed his second. With 16 minutes to go Kieran Sawyer scored from a Spink conrer before Stepney grabbed his second 2 minutes later from another breakaway. If your starting to lose count, that made it 7-3 in Amazingstoke's favour!
More were to follow in the final 8 minutes too!. First, Köylüoglu completed his brace, then in stoppage time Sawyer completed his hat-trick. Not to be outdone, Köylüoglu completed his hat trick in the 3rd minute of injury time heading in an Elton Miles corner and making Amazingstoke Gooners the first team in Nofolk league history to score 10 goals in a single game!
Immediately after the game, Drakies Dazzerlers manager Drakey left his job.
