Pitbulls muzzled
League campaign rounded off with a 6-0 win
Streatham ended their league campaign in style with a convincing 6-0 win over third placed Bristol Pitbulls.
Despite the first period ending in a 0-0 stalemate the rest of the game yielded plenty of goals for the hosts with Josh Ealey-Newman ending Pitbulls goalie Tyler Perre’s hopes of a shut out on 29 minutes. Scott Bailey scored twice before the buzzer sounded giving Streatham a 3-0 lead going into the third.
Ealey-Newman bagged his second five minutes from the restart, before league top scorer Vanya Antonov finished a shorthanded breakaway to make it 5-0.
A pleasing evening for the home crowd ended in style, as former Pitbulls blueliner James Warman popped up late on to make it 6-0 and give the home fans one final celebration.
The win ends a brilliant league campaign for Michael Farn’s men in which they’ve lifted the championship and two cups so far.
The team now prepare for the post season Play-Offs this coming weekend with back to back games against Oxford City Stars. Should we advance we then compete in the Play Off finals weekend in Milton Keynes on 23rd and 24th April.
