Magnificent 7

Tattersall gets another 3

Kettering 2s made it a magnificent 7 wins on the spin as they breezed past an aged Camb City 6ths. The first game at City saw an ugly incident where Two Touch received some very heavy handed treatment and this game also had an underlying edge to it.
Kettering were comfortably in control from the start and, with City's three youngsters up front posing little threat to Kettering's frugal back line it became a question of whether the hosts could break down the visitors. Dwelling on the ball a City defender was pick pocketed by Charlie Hawkins who fed Samuel Tattersall who buried the ball off the bar and into the net. The effervescent Tattersall grabbed his second with a fine reverse stick finish. Mark Hawkins was lucky not to see a card for a breakdown tackle in midfield. Tattersall grabbed a first half hat trick with a close range finish and Kettering spent half time wondering why they hadn't scored a couple more and knew that City were hanging on.
The second half saw Kettering ease off a little and only had a Ben Mills goal to show for their superiority.
Tattersall and Two Touch both took heavy, unpunished, knocks and Hawkins Snr ended the game early having shared a yellow with a City defender.
Tattersall concluded the day with a treble double of MoM and DoD's in his last three games ( to go with his 8 goals).

Kettering are now second in the table and next week travel to Wisbech looking to continue their fine run of form that has brought them fourteen unanswered goals since the midwinter break.
