Diss Town A travelled to Hingham Athletic for their final Pre Season game
and ran out comfortable winners. The visitors fielded a side with a average
age of 19 and quickly went about dismantling a poor Hingham Team. Diss took
the lead after only 2 minutes when Nathan Ellis released Cameron
Barton and he outpaced the defence and slid the ball into the bottom
corner to make the score 1-0. After only 4 minutes it was 2-0 when Jordan
Balls sent Lloyd Miller clear and he finished well into the
bottom corner with his left foot. The visitors were looking dangerous with
every attack and almost scored again when Nathan Ellis smashed the ball
against the bar from 20 yards. Ellis again came close minutes later when he
smashed the ball towards goal from 25 yards but the keeper palmed it away.
The next to test the keeper was Max Denny who turned his man inside out and
shot at goal but the keeper again saved well. This was turning into shooting
practise for the visitors and Lloyd Miller should have scored again before
Ryan Perry’s scissor kick went inches wide. On 20 minutes Hingham scored
against the run of play when a good cross was swept into the roof of the net
to make the score 2-1. Diss restored their lead almost instantly when a
corner from Nathan Ellis was headed in from 6 yards by Cameron
Barton for his second of the game and to make the score 3-1. The game
was put out of sight in the 30th minute when Diss were awarded a penalty
after Ryan Perry was brought down after a very sharp turn. The
youngster picked himself up and smashed the ball into the roof of the net to
make the score 4-1. Hingham looked down and out and it got worse for the
home side when Max Denny Found Lloyd Miller in the area and he
volleyed the ball into the net for his second of the game and to make the
score 5-1. The first half scoring was complete in the 44th minute and it was
the goal of the game. It came when Jordan Balls fed the ball into Ryan
Perry’s feet and he spun his man and smashed the ball at goal from 20
yards which found the net via the post for his 2nd of the game and to make
the half time score 6-1.

Diss rung the changes in the second half and knew
complacency could be a problem but did continue to find the
net on a regular basis. Within 5 minutes of the restart the
tangerines found the net again. It came when a corner from
Nathan Ellis was headed towards goal by Cameron Barton but
was saved and Lloyd Miller was on hand to
score from close range and complete his hat trick to make
the score 7-1. The game was easy for the visitors who
continued to attack and made it 8-1 when Ben Wilby
strode out of defence and chipped the keeper from 40 yards
for his first goal in 3 years. Diss were playing some nice
stuff in front of a well beaten Hingham side and made it 9-1
when Max Denny latched onto a loose ball in
the area and finished with his left foot. To the home sides
credit they kept trying to play football and scored a good
goal when a nice through ball was finished well by the
striker to make the score 9-2. Diss scored almost
immediately when Nathan Ellis played a inch perfect through
ball for Ben Green to race onto, round the
keeper and finished well into the bottom corner to make the
score 10-2. Chances were coming thick and fast and Diss
could have scored again when a excellent cross from Daniel
Kerry was headed over the bar by Ryan Perry. It was 11-2
when debutant Ronaldo Qoopre was sent through
by Jordan Balls and he finished well into the bottom corner
for his first of the season. Hingham scored another
consolation goal when sloppy defending from Diss saw the
striker get through on goal and finish well to make the
score 11-3. The scoring was complete when a brilliant piece
of skill by Ryan Perry gave him a shooting chance from the
edge of the area but his shot came back off the bar and
Daniel Kerry was on hand to score from close
range to make the final score 12-3. Diss Town A’s man of the
match was 16 year Ryan Perry for a very lively and creative
performance.
