Wow! That was a real ‘Team Performance’ for a hard fought victory today! The return of Captain Seamus made a big difference providing stability and structure in our midfield, boy was he tired near the end of the match.
The match was end to end early on but the Stanley goal on thirteen minutes was a ‘Superb Team Goal’! A sharp accurate pass from Seamus in the middle to Ross Longelo who skilfully controlled the ball and sent in a swift direct cross for Pressley to sweep onto and thrash the ball into the net…..The old ‘One, Two, Three’ epitomized! After the goal Stanley continued mainly with the upper hand as Longelo was shredding the Shrews defenders apart! We fully deserved the half time lead!
Shrewsbury made two changes at half time and it took Stanley ten minutes or more to adjust to their new shape. Our opponents had more of the ball in the second half but ‘The Jensen Interceptor’ made a series of great saves.
Good to see Clarke getting useful match time too.
Lots of good performances from Stanley players but Ross Longelo deservedly won the MOM award closely followed by Jensen IMHO.
The final whistle interaction between our players and supporters was brilliant!
Hopefully, a turning point in our season.
ON STANLEY ON.
KEEP THE FAITH.
