----------------------

NOMINATIONS
Scott Waissel (AM) - pace and trickery was difficult for Catford to handle. Waissel continues to impress in the famous Orange
Alex Elf (ST) - shame he only had just the one goal to show for his efforts. Defence couldn't handle his movement and general link up play with Waissel.
Jake Yudelowitz (CB) - his first start in 13 months, but you wouldn't know it. Jake was near faultless at the back as he resumed his partnership with Adam Leveson, and he still feels there's loads more to come
David Domb (M) - in a drab NLR C performance, manager David Domb led by example in the first half with a moment of magic that the late Johan Cruyff would have been proud of. Domb turned his defender, leaving him for dead before putting an inch-perfect cross into the box which deserved a better finish

----------------------

NORTH LONDON RAIDERS A
Liron Mannie (S) - clinical centre forward display with a hat-trick in the first half. Clever movement and a handful throughout
Ricky Engleman (CM) - dominant central midfield display. Hugely influential figure in a very good side will be pushing hard for the coveted MSFL player of the season
Jonny Kay (CM) - reads the game expertly, shields the defence but also starts most attacks for NLR. Has been superb for a number of weeks now and was especially so against Redbridge

----------------------

L'EQUIPE
Mark Glucksman (GK) - had an incredible first half, kept us in it with two fantastic saves, one where he tipped the ball over the bar from a fantastic shot. John Lukic would have been proud!
