BraceYellows strike first
Yellow Bibs took the lead on 24 minutes when Ilyas Coleman finished from a Taylor Payne assist. It was a goal with a twist: a second ball had been kicked onto the pitch, but nobody involved in the play noticed it, so the goal stood and the Yellows led 0–1.
Makan makes his mark
The Blues answered within four minutes. Giulio Mascolo set up Makan Tarjan, who dinked the ball over the goalkeeper in a well-worked goal to make it 1–1. On 35 minutes Makan pounced on a rebound to put the Blues 2–1 up.
Yellow Bibs hit back on 41 minutes, Andrew Whenman finishing from an Av Kanda assist to level at 2–2. Then came a mirror image of the opening controversy. Arash Tarjan teed up Ashkan Tarjan on 47 minutes for 3–2. A second ball bounced on and one Yellow defender dealt with it, but the rest of the team played on, so the goal stood.
A frantic finish
The Yellows were not done. On 51 minutes Mason Armstrong smashed the ball into the goal from a Whenman assist, a great finish that made it 3–3. Just two minutes later, Shaquille James netted from another Arash Tarjan assist to make it 4–3, and that proved to be the winner.
Seven goals, two second-ball talking points and a one-goal margin made for a cracking hour at Bannisters.
