Year 9 in the spotlight

Tonight the Year 9 Floodlit football tournament got under way. Conditions were not great, a light drizzle and cold winds meant slippy conditions underfoot. Despite this the first game against Skipwith was an entertaining affair, solid defence combined with good passing and plenty of work off the ball resulted in a 4-0 win. The second game against Welsh was end to end stuff, Welsh took an early lead, but we soon levelled the score, Welsh went 3 - 1 up with a dubious goal that didn't appear to cross the line. we fought back well and scored another goal, but unfortunately the final whistle went as we pressed for an equaliser. All 8 players contributed to a great team effort, but leading by example Captain Markus Grun scored 4 goals, Anthony Miarli 2 and Max Chandler a thumping penalty that the keeper had no hope of saving.
