A rollercoaster of a game for our U11Cs today against a strong George Watson’s Bs. A fantastic start from Johnny who passed straight to Stuart in the D to get a shot in the goal. Unfortunately GWC came back quickly with their whole team pushing up and upping the pressure to score back. The maroon side then scored again from a quick turnaround. From then on, every goal we scored was retaliated with another goal back from the opposition. It should be noted on that we kept a clean sheet in the last third!

Seb made some great saves in the final third to keep the team in with a chance of winning.

The final score came up a 4-3 loss. An unfortunate narrow loss but this teaching lesson has given us points to improve. Moving forward, we’ll look to keep the pressure on the ball as well as reacting quicker to the play.

Shoutout to Johnny, David, Stuart and Salman for the great goals, assists and shots on target. Well done to Freddie for constant running, Finlay for his great marking in our half and Max & Honor for their hard work in defence. Congrats to Stuart for Player of the Match, who after being off unwell this week came back to school just in time for passback!
