School Football Team Match Night 1

Yesterday was the first first of the football team's new 'Match Nights'. 3 teams gathered at Oakwood for a set of three matches, Oakwood, Tanner Brook and Shirley Junior.

Oakwood played Tanners Brook in the first game. Oakwood created some very good chances, often 1-1 with the 'keeper, but failed to capitalise and were eventually punished by Tanners Brook who took a 0-1 lead. Oakwood continued to create chances but were unable to find the back of the net meaning the final whistle blew with Oakwood losing 0-1.

In their second game, Oakwood were quick off the mark and dominated the opening 10 minutes but their finishing was wayward and they failed to beat the 'keeper from a string of shots. Shirley actually took the lead against the run of play but were unable to sustain it. Will and Sonny scoring to put Oakwood in the lead. After Shirley equalised to make it 2-2, Oakwood finished with a flourish as both Sonny and Leo scored excellent goals making the final score 4-2.

Well done to the scorers, Sonny(2), Will (1) and Leo (1) as well as Man of the Match, on his debut, Sonny.
