District Cup Football

SGLA 2- 0 UTC

Tuesday 25th February

The year 7 team had a good battle against UTC. The boys got an early lead within the first two minutes of the game through a simple but well followed up tap in from Jack. Although we had all the possession and chances throughout the game, we struggled to get the ball in the back of the net. In the last minute of the game, SGLA received a corner. Our keeper, Rhyley, decided to come up for the corner and got his head on the end of the cross. The ball was rifling towards the top corner when the UTC defender pulled off an unbelievable save illegally using his hand which led to a penalty being awarded. Rhyley took the spot kick and struck it powerfully down the middle before the end whistle blew.
