Under 10s – RFYL
The Mighty Red and Blacks played against Washington AFC Pumas today. Only having 7 lads, so no subs, they played brilliantly. Oliver M came in to help make the numbers up and helped himself to a goal, however he should have had 2 goals after a quality strike from distance clearly crossed the line only for the ref to rule it out. Running out 4-2 winners the lads made sure they kept up their current good form. Goals scored by Preston, Oliver M, Oliver C and Coleby. MoM went to both Preston and Daniel. Preston played part of the match in goal and made a couple of very crucial saves and even saved a penalty. Daniel never stopped running the entire match, always looking to take his man on and was a constant threat. Massive well done to all the lads and its a great way to finish 2019 with another win.
