The scores tell you everything; this
was a tough competitive night, a credit to the players and match officials.
Breakaways A 8 New Waltham Juniors 2
Both
teams were 100% going into game. N
Waltham knew from Breakaway’s Gradley
League record that this was a tough one. So it proved. Breakaway’s just
had the edge, but New Waltham gave it their best shot and made them work for
the win.
Breakaway’s B 1 Grange Dynamos 1
What
a game! Breakaways took an early lead, Grange hounded and chased them after
that. Great GK saves, goal line clearances, the post, bar – it seemed Grange
could hit everything but the net. If the
report makes the game look one sided it was not. Breakaways were like their
name, they threatened a second goal if Grange slipped their defences just once.
Justice
was done when Grange scored a late equaliser; this was a game no team deserved
to lose.
Under 12’s
Clee United 2 Hereford Juniors 5 (Hereford open top 3 gap)
Clee Borough 2 Healing 5 (Healing only team 100%)
Keelby Under 11z 9 Grimsby Soccer Club B 1 (Keelby looking the part, mid table with games in hand)
Blues Futsal 3 Healing 2
After
above game I just knew I had to stay for one more and I was not disappointed. Healing excelled themselves taking a 2-0
lead, Blues Futsal were in deep trouble.
A second half goal gave them hope, an equaliser made them believe, and a
late winner lifted their previous gloom.
Healing will feel they deserved a share of the spoils, it was not to be.

The
last game I did miss, there could not be a 3rd cliff hanger? Judging
by the score there was.
