Season So Far — GCFA | August Recap

Each week, performances across the GCFA catch our eye — but only a select few make it into the Team of the Week. Built from record nominations by supportive clubs, this line-up shows the talent, graft, and moments of brilliance that shaped the weekend’s action

GOALKEEPER

GK – Finlay Adger – ROSSVALE HUNTERSHILL

Finlay was excellent on Saturday against Kings Park United. The shot stopper saved a penalty kick and then came up trumps with a a big save later in the match.

Big things are expected from Finlay this season and with his early season form he looks to be living up to these high expectations.

DEFENDERS

DEF – Darren Stevenson – PORT GLASGOW BC

DEF – Liam Coyle – CAMBY MILAN

Liam was Solid defensive performance from Coyle who organised his back line well and was also key to the tempo of the game and getting play started from the back! Again another with an incredible range of passing!

Liam isn’t afraid of a challenge and makes excellent use of his size and physical presence.

DEF – Angelo Da Silva – NETHERCRAIGS

Angelo had a great first half at wing back then slotted back to the unfamiliar position of left centre back and hardly put a foot wrong also slotted home his penalty cool as you like. Unlucky to be on the losing side.
