BK Volvox - MBFF
by Alex Peters
The warriors of Valby Idrætspark 👏
Too many things to mention -
Reduced to 9 players before kickoff, with Owen and Jack battling through injuries.
They scored at the beginning and started pumping the tunes, and the Volvox was 2-0 down at half time. This despite James sending HBFF's Legolas to the shadow realm with a CLEAN tackle. Alex chose not to use this opportunity to remind him of the penalty he saved against him at the mbete Cup.
But did volvox heads drop? Did they ever! Spurred on by Jack's incessant running (who knows what position he's supposed to be playing), Magnus deft touch and Jannik doing his best Luka impression, Volvox began to get back into the game. First, a vicous strike by Sami made it 2-1, and silenced the home crowd.
Then, Volvox produced a perfect replica of prime Barcelona 2008, including (allegedly) an amazing dummy by Jack.
With the scores level, the best was yet to come. The ball fell to the Volvox number 9, and with everybody's hearts in their mouths, Hansen produced a rip-roaring strike with the outside of his boot to send the Volvox players delirious. MBFF players shook their heads, presumably not in the knowledge that they had been bested by a player roughly 30 years their senior.
After what felt like an eternal amount of injury time, the referee blew for full time. Shields celebrated like Scotland had just declared independence, which was still less than the reaction MBFF had to going 1-0 up after 5 minutes.
The warriors of Valby Idrætspark had done it. They were called a scratch team, even Casuals. However, they had pulled off a famous victory. Heroes to a man 🦸♂️💪
Man of the match: Sami
