Cup kings from Mill Hill Dons, HMH and Maccabi London Lions feature prominently in this week's Select XI.
February 26, 2019 11:231. SAM SINGER (Mill Hill Dons) - "unbelievable with the gloves" in the PMT quarter-final against Division One table-toppers Redbridge Jewish Care A, "but it was really his feet that made the crucial difference. In David de Gea-esque style he was a rock at the back and made an all important save in the penalty shoot-out to boot. Absolutely sensational, received high praise from both teams throughout. Made two point-blank reflex saves to keep the score level and commanded his box to perfection throughout"
2. ADAM FREEMAN (Mill Hill Dons) - "read the game extremely well throughout handled the pressure from the wing extremely well, very little got past him throughout the game"
3. JORDAN ASPIS (ML Lions) - "huge performance by the left-back, winning the penalty for our equaliser and then scoring a volley to win the game in extra-time"
4. ED BRAFMAN (ML Lions) - "an imperious performance at the back keeping the dangerous Oli Sade at bay all game, and showing why he captains the Lions"
5. ZAC GARBACZ (Hendon Utd) - "solid game at full back defensively and going forward" against Brady Maccabi
6. DAVID COHEN (FC Team) - star man chipped in with a goal in the big win over title-chasing Redbridge Jewish Care B
7. OLI BROOKS (Los Camden A) - "new to his Camden surroundings stepped in and performed excellently today, Camden need to keep him fit and available."
8. JOSH GORB (Hertswood Vale) - "man-of-the-match against Faithfold Doc MM B. Considering he was without a goal before Christmas, 2019 has been the year of the Gorb with 5 goals in his last 5 games. Was at the heart of everything today. Grabbed us an early lead with the simplest of finishes, before setting up Elio to wrap up the points. Caused Faithfold all kinds of problems throughout"
9. JOSH BHARIER (Oakwood A) - two goals and put in a real shift against HMH. Didn't deserve to be on the losing team
10. ZACK NEIMAN (SPEC FC) - "three goals against a team who look destined for the Prem"
11. ETHAN KRELL (HMH) - hand a big helping hand in both goals in the comeback against Oakwood to keep alive hopes of glory in the Jewish FA Cup. Also showed an ice-cool temperament to score in the shoot-out. Always turns it on in front of the JC cameras!
