With Academy MD1 in the books one match to talk about was Port Royal vs Sydney. In a thrilling 6 goal game Port Royal came out on top with a brace from Barry McGlynn, one from Reece Munro and one from Sadie Black leading to a 4-2 victory. Honorable mentions to Chris Walker VI who scored for Sydney City early in to the second half to bring them back to a 2 goal deficit only a few minutes after they conceded. One player who appeared to have a quiet day on the pitch was Jimothy Erickson who finished out the game at a 6.9 rating and arguably the reason for the goal scored by Chris Walker VI in a post match interview Jimothy had this to say, "It was a good team win and I would like to thank my team for putting in 110% effort for the full 90. There was a lot I learned from this game and am striving to get better, and need to get better. There were a few balls into the box from set pieces that I needed to get my head on that I couldn't seem to. I also need to make sure I am attentive in my defensive duties, I still am learning to play as a central defender but with time I am positive I can become one of the best in the league!"
Bold words from Jimothy Erickson will he be able to back up his words? Port Royal's next opponents are Stockholm IK who in their match against Victoria Falls won 4-2. Jimothy when asked about this future match had this to say "They are going to be a tough opponent to play against, but I am confident that me and the team will be able to come out on top after the performance I saw from us today, I mean did you see Barry's second goal, the control and skill you need to hit that with such accuracy! I know its early but that might very well be my goal of the season but I am excited to be proved wrong!"
Port Royal and Stockholm IK are currently tied for 1st in the academy league and with their game being the last on MD2 it is anyone's guess for who will be at the top of the table come then.
