York 1 – 5 Rotherham
Game of 2 halves.
We spoke to the lads before the game about how we want to relentless and ruthless this season as too many times last season we were guilty of not finishing teams off.
2 minutes in 1-0 down, rest of half saw us missing chance after chance and we went in at H/T 1-0 down ????????????
2nd half a slight tweak in positions and it started as the first one. Then around 10 minutes into half a driving run by Tyger into the box and just as he was about to cross he spotted a gap at the near post 1-1.
5 minutes later we won a free kick to the right of penalty box up steps Harry Ox who lofts one into top corner dipping late leaving keeper with no chance.
Game went into last 5 minutes with us in control but still game not won. A short corner to Max H who lifted a pinpoint cross straight onto the head of Archie who’s bullet header landed in top corner
Two further headed goals from Ted and Joey capped off a good performance. Score line reflects our dominance but could have easily made it simpler
