REACTION | Kyle Hammond Post Match Interview | Needham Market v Southport| 17.08.2024

Goalscorer Kyle Hammond reflects on today's game. 


DK: First of all, what did you make of today?

KH: I thought we were well within the game. I thought we played really well for everyone to a man. We matched them really and just a couple of little mistakes which we haven't been doing.

Like last year we didn't really have many of them and it's just, we've just had, you know, Marco doesn't do that ever and it's just unfortunate, you know, and probably if that doesn't happen then we probably could go on or we have to take the draw. 


DK: Talk us through your goal, well struck. 

KH: Yeah, me and Tev were having a little bit of a who's going to take it and I just said can't please Tev and then he weren't going to and then in the end he just goes, oh go on then. I just tried to aim for the back post, just someone get across it and then, I don't know, just went in really. Oh no, I went for goal but I was aiming for the back post just and if anyone gets across it and heads it in doesn't matter but if not it misses everyone and it should go in and I think to be fair I don't think the keeper really, yeah it wasn't right in the top corner. I think he flapped out a little bit so yeah.


DK: But it must feel nice to be our first ever National League North goal scorer? 

KH: Oh yeah, it's nice I suppose, yeah it is nice but I know it sounds a bit silly but it doesn't really mean anything to me to be fair. I suppose it's a good thing that I was supposed to be in history that I'm the first goal scorer but to be honest with you, it doesn't really bother me.


DK: Yeah, it's been two kind of tough results to take after being well in the game and then coming out on the wrong end.


KH: Yeah, I don't think last week we were really ourselves to be honest. Going away from home, just little things like that, I just don't think we were really ourselves and gave a good account of ourselves last week. I think today we really have and I think if we play like that we'll be fine.


DK: And moving on to Tuesday, another big game against Scunthorpe?

KH: Well yeah, they're all big games aren't they now? Not just now because we've lost our first two but every game's a big game. I think if you play football and you don't think every game's a big game then a bit silly really. So we'll go into that, we'll dust ourselves down, recover well and give it another go on Tuesday.


DK: We're still, like we say, we're showing that we can compete with these big sides? 

KH: Yeah of course and I don't think we have any doubt about that within our group. Players, management, everyone else, I don't think we have any doubts about that. Obviously it'll be nice to get some points on the board in our first two games but we'll give it a good go on Tuesday.
