A double from Shoichi Kishimizu has guided
Sunshine Coast FC to a 31
win against
Northern Fury at Kawana Sports Reserve Fire's
first of the season.
The hosts struck twice in the opening ten minutes to leave Fury shellshocked
Kishimizu’s
opener
complemented by a goal to new recruit Paul Mikula on debut.
Benjamin Stanley pulled a goal back for Fury in his first start of the campaign shortly after halftime
as the
visitors flirted with a comeback, however they proved unable to reel in the hosts.
The result marks a first ever PlayStation 4 National Premier Leagues win for new Fire coach Sam Saif on his
first matchday
in charge of the squad.
It also sees Fury remain at the bottom of the standings as the sole team without a competition point after three
rounds.
Key Moments
3’ – GOAL FOR FIRE – James Verdin delivers a low cross which is duly converted by Shoichi Kishimizu from
15 yards
8’ – GOAL FOR FIRE – Paul Mikula converts with a headed effort off the post from Grant De Chastel’s freekick
19’ – CHANCE FOR FURY – Jae Eurell chances his hand from 25 yards but Fire goalkeeper Samuel Nickolls is
up to task to palm the ball over the crossbar
46’ – CHANCE FOR FIRE – A goalmouth scramble results in James Verdin taking a stab at goal but he skies
his attempt from close range
56’ – CHANCE FOR FURY – Michael Eisenhut strikes from distance and an awkward bounce nearly catches out
Samuel Nickolls, but the goalkeeper makes the stop with his dead
63’ – GOAL FOR FURY – After being released by a through ball Michael Eisenhut cuts back to Benjamin
Stanley, who converts from close range
81’ – CHANCE FOR FURY – Benjamin Stanley looks to level terms from distance but despite some late swerve
Samuel Nickolls has it covered
84’ – GOAL FOR FIRE – Chris Jancevski delivers a low cross into Schoichi Kishimizu who guides it home to
seal the points and his brace
What They Said
“(The win) gives us a little bit of confidence. We’ve got a long way to go obviously with a new coach coming in
and players still getting used to each other. It’s a challenge for us and we are all relishing it and looking forward
to the rest of the season.“ – Matthew Lyell, Sunshine Coast FC

“I think that we started off pretty slow and gave away two pretty soft early goals. But I think after the first ten to
fifteen minutes we dominated the rest of the game but didn’t put away our chances. I think in the second half
(Fire) had one shot and scored, and we couldn’t make our chances count. “ – George Dalton, Northern Fury FC

Spot on about Cairns and no they haven't even sent that shit out yet, let alone even posted it on Facebook.

Club is run like a fucking amateur bingo hall.

-PB

So if not from the membership where are they getting their money from?

So no membership, no merchandise for sale and poor results/attendances . Who would of thought things would of gotten worse under the current clowns. But yet as bad as they were three years ago it appears it's appalling now. We said watch the chairman run it into the ground and he's doing exactly that.

Qualification for the FFA Cup could make a difference.

And the qualification path couldn't be much easier. It's basically a playoff against FNQ every year. Not that it's helped last last two years :?

How can you not sell fucking memberships or merch. Jesus.

Fury 1 - Pride 3

Embarrassing. Crowd numbers hit double figures?

someone must have a plan?
Hope we can dig deep next week against cairns.

THE Northern Fury have been left to rue what might have been as they slumped to their fourth-straight defeat with Saturday night’s 3-1 loss to the Western Pride Townsville Sports Reserve.

The Fury produced their best first-half performance of the season against the Ipswich-based Pride, but they couldn’t convert that run of possession into a breakthrough victory.

The Fury have developed a bad habit of conceding early goals, but they were anything but slow starters in front of their home crowd, creating three genuine chances in the first 20 minutes.

However, luck wasn’t on their side as Joseph Thornton’s shot hit the back post before Pride goalkeeper Duncan Short made two sharp saves to deny Benjamin Stanley and Corey Waples.

The visitors then cashed in from a free kick on the half-hour as Corey Lucas curled a pinpoint strike into the top corner of the goal to give his side a 1-0 advantage at halftime.

Joseph Duckworth extended the Pride’s lead early in the second half before the Fury pegged one back as Stanley and Jonathon Bagley combined in the middle before releasing Thornton who calmly converted.

However, their joy was short-lived as the Pride responded through Joseph Duckworth just minutes later to seal their first win of the season and consign the Fury to last place on the ladder.

Fury coach Ian Ferguson conceded his side had not made the most of their attacking opportunities in the first half before letting the game slip away in the second.

“It’s a disappointing second half performance,” Ferguson said.

“First half, we were well in there with chances hitting the post and then we concede from a free-kick just before halftime and it changed the way things were going,” Ferguson said.

“I thought we were in control and moving the ball well and keeping possession well and had the better chances.”

The NPL has a general bye for the Easter weekend before the Fury make the trip up to Barlow Park to take on North Queensland rivals the FNQ Heat.

3 goals in 10 minutes in the first half. A club that should be aiming for the finals looks like one that will be lucky to win a game this season.

5 GAMES, 0 POINTS ... LESSONS FOR ALL OF US

9/4/2016 0 COMMENTS

“Five games, zero points. What are you going to do?” I was asked by someone earlier this week.

I think my response surprised him.

Despite the results so far, there are some positives to the way we’re playing. For those of you have seen us play – and we’ve only had one game at home so far – we’re doing reasonably well up to a certain point.

What I have noted is that when we lose the first goal, we’re very vulnerable in the next 15 minutes. Other goals come quickly.

So what we need to do is, beyond stopping that first goal in the first place, is to work extra hard to plug the gaps so more goals are not scored.

The other aspect that has been pleasing is that the players have not put their heads down. When we have a chance to talk to them at half-time, and work on some tactical matters in the game, they work hard, they focus on their job, they work to instruction and do as well as possible.

We also have to understand as a football community that we don’t have a player pool to choose from that is as big as most other NPL clubs.

So, yes, results are important. No-one likes to lose their first five games of the season. Just ask Adelaide United who lost their first eight games of the current A-League season and could be Premiers by the end of this weekend.

However, our primary aim is to educate players so they become better players, week-in, week-out.

I like to see individual improvement in each player every week. As an example, Sam Herlihy came off the bench last week against FNQ Heat in Cairns. He changed the game. Not only did he score a goal, but he understood his role, kept his width, tracked back into defence and didn’t stop working. It was a great reaction to being benched, and he approached the game with entirely the right attitude and focus.

A lesson for all of us. The right attitude. Focussed on our own job. Keeping shape.

Hope to see you at Townsville Sports Reserve on Saturday when we meet Gold Coast City. Kick-off is at 7pm with earlier games starting at 3pm.

Ian Ferguson

Ian Ferguson isn't the right fit for the Fury. He wasn't that great for them in the A-League when he had more resources at his disposal and he's not great for them now.

North Queensland 2 - 3    Gold Coast City

Key Moments

10’ - GOAL FOR ROAR - Joe Caletti splits the defenders with a beautiful through ball which finds Jayden Prasad who finesses his low shot inside the right post

18’ - CHANCE FOR ROAR - Prasad finds Nathan Konstandopoulos on the right wing who in turn picks out Nicholas D’Agostino in the middle but the striker’s shot flies just over the bar

19’ - GOAL FOR ROAR - Joseph Champness finds himself in behind the defence and finishes calmly past Luke McDonald

23’ - CHANCE FOR ROAR - Prasad latches onto a through ball from Jesse Daley but can’t quite curl his shot inside the near post

30’ - CHANCE FOR ROAR - D’Agostino’s side-footed attempt hits the base on the right upright and the rebound is cleared for a corner

50’ - GOAL FOR ROAR - Prasad is in behind the Fury defence again and this time finishes coolly from close range

54’ - GOAL FOR ROAR - Champness crosses to D’Agostino whose shot hits the right upright and then the left upright before falling to Daley who finally finishes

66’ - GOAL FOR ROAR - Dane Ingham’s cross from the right wing finds D’Agostino in the centre behind the last defender and the striker finishes with the inside of his right boot

69’ - CHANCE FOR FURY - Corey Waples splits two Roar defenders and finds Hamish Cassidy who breaks into the area but can’t find the target with the shot

74’ - GOAL FOR ROAR - An exquisite cross from Ingham lands on the head of D’Agostino whose powerful header finds the top corner from inside the six-yard box.

80’ - CHANCE FOR ROAR - D’Agostino’s low cross finds Ingham in the centre of the area but the substitute has to stretch behind him to reach the ball and his shot goes narrowly wide

82’ - CHANCE FOR ROAR - D’Agostino slips in behind at the back post and latches onto a cross from Ingham but the balls bobbles as the striker prepares to shoot and goes wide of the target


“I think it really showed our boys how football should be played. I thought the Roar moved the ball really well. They dragged us all over the place and the movement was fantastic. It’s a learning lesson for the boys. If they want to aspire to be anywhere, that’s the level they have to be at in the NPL.” – Ian Ferguson, Northern Fury FC coach
