-- SIX Woking players are named to the team of the week... Nikolaou, Taylor, Ogogo, Colin, N'Guessan, and Constantino.

January 18th, 2017

Rotherham(9-7-11, 17th) @ Woking (14-9-4, 2nd)

Rotherham are favored at our place today, 5:4 vs our 7:4. The bookmakers just keep expecting us to fall. We tied 1:1 on the road back in August.

GK: Lynch
D: Nikolaou/Taylor/Chester/Ogogo
MC: Upson/Cook
AM: Colin/Zatara
FC: Harsanyi/Constantino

Chester in for the Injured Marc and Smith. Upson in for Paulo at MC, Zatara starts at AMR. We attack at home.

3': We have a throwin in their half of the field, its taken and passed to Cook, Harsanyi is offsides and slow to get back, if he's onsides I think we have an easy through ball, instead Cook beats a man, gets to the penalty area and fires a shot... inches wide, really nice play though.

17': Tons of woking offense, but not a lot coming of it, We just earned a corner after Cook plays a nice pass to Zatara but his shot is saved. Corner is cleared easily.

20': Our first clear cut chance as Cook plays a beautiful pass into the area to Colin, but he can't finish from 15 yards out, its saved...

26': We intercept a pass in our defensive end and are on the run. Cook with a long run, a ball ahead to constantino, Cook sprints ahead and gets the ball back, he draws two defenders as he's charging into the area with speed previously only seen by Constantino, and just like a great passer, he pulls up and plays a ball between the defenders to a wide open Harsanyi who puts it into the net. Very pretty play and that's really the first time i've seen the combined speed of Cook nd Constantino and that was just devastating. 1-0

30': Midfielder Law with a yellow tackling Harsanyi way out wide left. Free kick comes to nothing.

44': Ogogo with a yellow for a tackle about 2 inches outside the box on an attacker. I was really afraid that might be red. They shoot it over on their free kick... first shot of the game for Rotherham.

HALF: This a game where we should have a 3 or 4 goal lead. Its 1-0, but we have a 55:45 possession edge, 72%-54% passing edge, 33%-7% on crosses, 88-76 on tackling, 71-47 on headers. We shoot 12 times to their 1. 8 shots on target to 0. 3 clear cut chances to 0. Colin had 2 of the 3 and has a history of struggling to finish those. We need to get more out of this. We're controling everything, Cook is having a much much bigger impact today than our first game.

47': Cook passes it ahead to Constantino, Constantino runs around trying to get an opening, eventually finds a small hole and shoots from 18 yards out. The keeper is there, but doesn't hold it cleanly. The ball slips away from him and into the net. Its actually credited as an own goal, i guess he totally had it, oops! 2-0

57': We give up a corner, they take it to the far post, its headed... over Lynch.. it hits the underside of the crossbar, Lynch had dove to try to get the ball and isn't there and they have a man to poke it into the empty net... 2-1

60': midfielder Laird with a yellow, bout damn time, I think that's his 4th foul I've seen.

71': Alcock in for Ogogo.

76': Paterson in for Harsanyi, N'Guessan in for Colin, N'Guessan moves to AMR, Zatara AML.

84': We're unable to clear the ball out of the defensive end and they build up some possesion, a pass to a foward, their man Laird makes a quick run on a give and go and Taylor went to doubleteam the foward, leaving a hole open, Laird fills it, receives the pass and beats Lynch... 2-2 We've got a few minutes to make something happen.

87': We control it on offense, Cook with a great ball itno the area, N'Guessan runs onto it, its a tough angle, and its saved, turned back for a corner. Corner is cleared away.

96': They have a goal kick, we win the ball, Upson plays it to Cook, Cook is about 30 yards out, Cook with a through ball, N'Guessan is behind their defense, its a better angle this time, he shoots near post, the keeper dives, GOALLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!! 3-2

Woking 3 : 2 Rotherham

There were 4 minutes of injury time scheduled, and one injury occured during injury time that delayed it a bit more. Our goal came at the 95:12 mark and time was called seconds after kickoff.

We should have crushed them, but we'll be happy to sneak out with a win and move on. We shot 20 times, putting a ridiculous 15 on target. They have 5 shots, 2 on target, 2 goals...

Man of the Match: Sam Cook (9.0)
Goals: Harsanyi (7.4), N'Guessan (7.3), one own goal by their keeper
Assists: Cook 2, Constantino (8.1)
Notables: Nikolaou (7.0), Upson (7.0)

Cook was just everywhere today, he totally won that for us. He has a 9.0 rating, Constantino 8.1, no one else above a 7.4, that's how much better Cook was than everyone else in his second match for Woking.
