(photo/submitted) Fury break slump EXETER — The Exeter Fury broke out of their offensive slump Sunday in London by scoring four goals in a 4-1 win over Marconi. After only scoring three goals in their first four games of the season the four goal outburst came as a welcome surprise. The Fury got on the board in the first half on a cross from Tom Phouttharath that Pete McAllister deftly headed into the net for his second goal in consecutive games. The Fury extended their lead to two goals on a free kick from Ryan Carroll into the box where Pete Fragiskatos was able to beat the goalie with a header for a 2-0 advan- tage. The home team got on the board on a rare mis- cue from keeper Nathan Holmes which allowed a Marconi player to shoot at an empty net to cut the Fury lead in half. Exeter took the one goal lead into the second half and it was Holmes who made the big saves to maintain the lead for his team while the Fury had some defensive lapses. Holmes' biggest save came as he dove to his left to deflect a high shot just wide of the post. Exeter sealed the win on Tom Phouttharath's first goal of the season as he picked up a loose ball after a deflection by Ben Willis - Leake and beat the Marconi keeper for a 3-1 Fury lead. Phouttharath then notched his second of the half after receiving a pass in the box from Carroll. Phouttharath fired the ball into the corner to round out the scoring. "Our passing was much better today," commented Fury spokesman Jason McFalls. "We worked well as a team and once we learn to remain positive with each other when things don't go our way we are going to be even better," added McFalls. The Fury have a record of 1-2-2 and their next action is Sunday in Simcoe at 5 p.m. away with a 3-0 win. An early penalty shot by Sporting deflated Exeter's confidence and its offence couldn't get on track The officiating was something to be desired resulting in numerous yellow cards with three going Exeter's way. The following week on June 3, saw Exeter play a much better game. The visiting Curinga team was awarded a direct free kick and the resulting goal was the only goal of the game for a 1-0 visitor win. On June 17, Exeter's fifth consecutive home game saw the Masters lose a 3-1 match to London Panhellenic. A strong London squad scored the first three goals with Exeter getting its lone marker off the foot of Van Mierlo. The loss pushed Exeter under .500 for the first time this season. June 11 the Masters entered the Goderich 30 and over tournament where they played three round robin games. In the morning Exeter lost 2-0 to a team from Michigan. at noon the Masters played the host Goderich team, winning 2-0. A well played game by Exeter, and probably their best of the year to date saw Charlie Wise score on a well placed kick outside the 18 -yard box. The last game saw Exeter dominate a Toronto team but the result was a 0-0 tie and Exeter didn't advance in the round robin play. The next game for the Masters is its first away game against Serbia in London June 24 at 7 p.m. The next home game is June 30 at 8 p.m. against Portuguese B.
