HENDON 4-3 HAYES & YEADING UTD - Highlights 1 January 2024

[@charliemagri1669]

Any 4-3 result, contains excitement; some errors, and great finishing. This match had it all, plus a very good atmosphere. Hendon's fortunate first seemed to count for nothing, as Hayes took advantage of being gifted two very poor goals to take the lead. Hendon missed the defensive qualities of Matsuzaka, but the ever reliable Ethan Light made a brilliant save off the line at 1-1, so Hayes could've been 3-1 up. Hendon continued to create so much infront of goal, but their shooting always seems to let them down. 7:46 Just watch this: Hendon make it 2-2. The passing was brilliant, but just, when the team run out if ideas on how to actually put the ball into the net, Niko slots the ball home and makes it look easy. That was a great team goal. Nearly every player touched the ball. Hendon then go 3-2 up. Samuel crosses superbly from the right; lobbing the ball over their entire defence, leaving them stranded, and it falls perfectly for Niko to slot home. This shows, if you give Niko chances, he'll always convert. 10:32 Hayes then catch Hendon out with a great equaliser, although one of their players handled in the build up. Hendon's 3 was slightly too late in the challenge, but the shot was then unstoppable. 13:25 Hayes show their frustration through this disgusting challenge on the keeper. Things would get worse. 13:36 Hendon create a great goal scoring chance. It had to be the winner! Injury time: 14:01 A Hayes player loses his footing and Hendon break away. Niko is through, but has work to do, as a defender is closing in fast. The keeper is at the near post, but expecting the shot to go the other side. Niko disguises his shot totally, moving his body in an instant to change the angle. The keeper makes a great effort, but the best ever striker to play for Hendon did it again.
