Hamilton Parish 0Flanagan’s Onions 1A Keston Lewis penalty was enough to earn Flanagan’s Onions victory against Hamilton Parish at Wellington Oval yesterday.Lewis’ strike in the 51st minute handed Parish their first defeat of the season, and Onions their second win of the campaign.“They have a good side and it was always important for us to get the first goal and see where things went from there,” said Onions skipper Phil Mathews.“Fortunately for us we got the first and only goal so that was pleasing.“Against North Village we conceded two goals in the opening minutes of the second half and we knew we couldn’t do that again and we grinded this win out.”It was a mistake from Parish captain Cal Hansey that gifted the visitors the lead after he was adjudged to have brought down a Onions player in the area.There was confusion surrounding the decision after both referee and linesman had to deliberate on where the foul occurred before the penalty was awarded.Lewis stepped up to take the kick, and was slightly fortunate after keeper Nigel Burgess got a hand to the ball but couldn’t keep it out.Hot Peppers’ Kyle Tannock and Romone Smith both tried to push their side forward from their midfield positions, while Ian Coke and Shayne Hollis both tried their luck with long range efforts late on.“To be honest, I thought we played them off the park and deserved the three points,” added Matthews.“They will take a lot of points off teams this season and to come out on the road and get the win was doubly special. “Apart from a ten minute spell in the second half we were better than them.”Hamilton Parish: N Burgess, C Hansey, R Richardson, T Caines, Q Glasford (C Hill, 65), K Tannock (J Outerbridge, 78), R Smith, L Symonds (T Douglas, 72), S Hollis, I Coke, P RichardsonSubstitutes not used: C Clarke, K CannFlanagan’s Onions: A Hunter, M Greg, J Fox, K Lewis, M Laws, M Ward (K Ronaldson, 59), N Parker (R Overand, 81), P Robey, P Matthews, S Buitler, S GouldSubstitutes not used: B Amaro, D O’Sullivan, S UptonGoals: K Lewis, 51Yellow cards: S Buitler, P MatthewsMan of the Match: P Matthews (Onions)
