Nomads won for 2 reasons; one their goalie and their 4 defenders all had great games restricting Dan Ede to just 1 goal., Two the Nomads wide players had the Selwyn defenders beaten for pace and skill, supplying any number of crosses, forcing corners each one creating havoc.Nomads first goal was a well placed header from a well placed cross. Nomads 2nd goal was an unstoppable free kick,which the Selwyn keeper never.saw Nomads 3rd goal came from another cross.Nomads were unlucky not to get a 4th goal crashing the ball against the crossbar, again the keeper beaten.
Dan Ede scored a well taken goal early on and he went close several times.but he was forced to shoot from long range If a Nomads player was lucky not to get a 2nd card for a clumsy tackle then a Selwyn player, who had earlier been booked was equally lucky when, beaten for pace once again he held back a goal bound Nomads player. The same Nomads player was kicked from behind well after he had taken a shot, again free kick given but no card.
I like the way Selwyn play and I expected them to win .
Selwyn looked like scoring right up until the end but it just wasn't their day
