Wow! What a thrilling game! Real end to end stuff and the kids were pretty unlucky not to snatch a victory from what looked like the jaws of defeat.
1-1 at half time quickly turned to 4-1 down vs 'The Avengers' as the kids were just loosing their puff (one interchange was just not enough in the fast paced game tonight!).
Luckily Kieron appeared out of the shadows, better late than never, and they regained their momentum and fought back very bravely to finish 4-4.
We are all very proud of the way the kids fought back tonight - very gritty stuff and it showed some real fighting spirit.
If there was a highlight of the night (and, to be honest, the whole game was pretty exciting) it would have to be Geordi's brave block from the free kick taken by the "under 19" kid on the other team (how tall is that kid?). With 30 seconds to go that could have been the game lost but Geordi put his body on the line.
Fortunately, the hexagon shaped welts on his back have subsided. Gutsy stuff - and it pretty much mirrors the entire teams efforts tonight.
But we are still at the top of the ladder thanks to the overwhelming goal difference!
