put together only last April Kevin Carlile and Steve scored for United as Georgetown recorded Its sixth consecutive vie tory in the provincial senior touma United had achieved a spot in the Sunday semi final with after dispatching of Sudbury by a 10 count two weeks ago in Georgetown On Sunday United employed the same aggressive counter attacking style that has proved so successful for the club this season Carlile broke a deadlock at the mark of the first halt when he car ried the ball up the right side of the pitch from his defensive position n the Georgetown back eld and a low hard shot past a diving goalkeeper into the left side of the Samla net He really got hold of It said In glis of pin point shot It probably cleared lust six inches In side the left post He really surprised them Inglis said caught Samla off guard by taking the ball upfield from the United It was like someone scoring a goal who t hove said Inttlls Georgetown held the i0 lead for the remainder of the f rst half with veteran goalkeeper Ray Ellis com ing up with a pair of outstanding saves to keep Samia off the board Inglis cited the standout play of cen tral defenders Dean Nelson and Lee Stephens as being tantamount to United winning effort Dean and Lee played a tremendous game Georgetown backfield again stood out in the second half as the United defence repelled several attacks Georgetown off side trap strategy worked to a tec and tie counted as having been called off side 14 times They t fathom our off side trap explained Inglis When we beat them on the off side once I knew we could beat them again Georgetown successful defen maneuver worked with defenders moving at precise moments to put Samla attackers In an off side position As soon as the ball comes to the attacker he Is hung out to dry said Samia out how to relying on the powerful boot of Its goalkeeper to provide good attacking ball kept up its assault throughout the second half but failed time and again to effec tively penetrate the United When Samia did on occasion get clear for a shot Ellis was there to make the stop Perhaps the toughest save Ellis SOCCER was called upon to make In the final minutes came off the boot of his own man Defender Dean Nelson made a nonchalant pass back to Ellis which almost eluded the stalwart keeper for a Samia goal That play left Inglis wincing That was a bit too nonchalant for my Ilk he said Georgetown wrapped up the win late In the second naif with Sarnia caught well up in attack in a desperate attempt to equalize Steve took a perfectly timed pass from Martin Barron and beat a pair of Samia defenders to lob a well placed shot up and the out stretched hands of the advancing keeper That was the icing on the cafe said Inglis It was a cracker shot Sarnia pressed again with only seven minutes remaining to play but was again repulsed by a constantly hustling Georgetown side The match ended on a rather sour note when a frustrated Bluewater player kicked Tony in the face as full time was called The player showed a lack of discipline on the play said glis It was simply frustration Our showed their maturity by not retaliating was unin- attributed the win to United
