However they clawed it back to equalise the game at <strong>2-2<\/strong>, with brilliant attacking and defending performances being put in at both ends of the court. As half time drew closer, Max scored a neat \u2018Paul-Shields\u2019 from the back corner of his division, only for Coach Gav to score a very similar shot at the other end, this time with a collect!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/korfball.eusu.ed.ac.uk\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/next2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1205\" title=\"next2\" src=\"https:\/\/korfball.eusu.ed.ac.uk\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/next2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"195\" \/><\/a>Half time and it was <strong>3-3<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The second half continued as the first had finished with great performances all round. Communication was good throughout and was extremely effective in shutting down City\u2019s attack when we remembered to use it. Unfortunately, as the games wore on and concentration started to slip slightly, more penalties were given. City scored 3 penalties and combined with another score from either side, the final result was <strong>City 7 \u2013 4 Uni<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1203\" title=\"next\" src=\"https:\/\/korfball.eusu.ed.ac.uk\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/next.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"274\" height=\"195\" \/>Generally everyone was happy with the performance, but as with any game, there are always opportunities for improvements to be made. As we\u2019ve always known, intelligent play is the key to success. Combine that with good communication, knowing your team members well and exercising a little more constraint in defence and we\u2019ve got a winning team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Next up: Sunday 11<sup>th<\/sup> Nov &#8211; Dundee + Glasgow 2<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday 28th October 2012 \u2013 St Leonards With St Andrews unfortunately pulling out of this weekend\u2019s games, focus was purely on the game against Edinburgh City.
