Squirrels Heath V Parsonage Farm Quarter Final Cup Match
On a dark, damp afternoon, the boys turned up at the field to play the quarter finals cup match against Parsonage Farm Junior School. The opposition team kicked off the game however, it wasn't long until the ball came to Harrison who took a long range shot from the half way line that sneaked in between the goalkeeper and his post. But then Parsonage Farm came fighting back and scored a goal against Squirrels. Heads went down and Parsonage Farm scored another three goals.
After a good chat at half time, Ethan, Jack, Alfie L and George came onto the pitch ready to play their hearts out and Sam switched with Christopher in goal. Sadly, we let another goal in but then Harrison scored his second goal! Everyone lifted their heads and they knew they had an opportunity to win the game. The boys were putting their all into their tackles but upsettingly, Alfie L was involved in a hard tackle and hurt his knee!
We won a free kick right outside right outside of the oppositions goal but it hit the post and bounced wide which left Squirrels with no rebound. After this, Harrison scored his third goal which gave him his hattrick. Unfortunately, despite the team playing really well, this wasn't enough to win the game . The finishing score was 5-3 to Parsonage Farm.
Man of the match went to Billy who did some great defending!
