Match Report
U12A National Cup Round 1
After a 50-minute drive to Grey Court, we had finally arrived. Although it was unfavourable conditions, we knew it was a must win game. After a short warmup, we kicked off. Niven had our first opportunity but unfortunately missed but we were already showing sparks of talent. However, not long after Niven took on 2 players and confidently slotted in home. 1-0. After our spirits had been fired up, Richard was played through on goal but missed. But not long after they had equalised-1-1. Although they had just scored, we put our heads down and Niven scored again. 2-1 and it was half time.
Not long after, a freekick was swung in from Ezra and Richard tapped it in back post and it was now 3-1. It was now the final stretch, and we were constantly defending, and they’d won a penalty. Even though Suvir had gotten a hand, it still went in, and it was now 3-2. With 10-minutes left, Richard played Niven in, and he faked the goalkeeper and scored, 4-2. In the final minutes, our defence of Akshat, Leon and Aadam held up and before long it was full time.
Final Score: Wilson’s 4 vs 2 Grey Court
