1st Game:
The boys were in high spirits going into this match especially after the victories from our last couple of games, but they were in for a shock!
They started slow today going a goal down very quickly to a hard low shot from the Droylsden striker who I must add was allowed to shoot without being closed down. After the shock of having a goal scored against them the lads started to play what I call proper football but there was another shock for the team, a goal from a corner when one of Droylsdens players shot with nobody marking him. Half time score 0-2

We started the 2nd half with the players in the mood for giving it all, they plainly listened to the half-time team talk. We got a corner which we scored from but with a bit of luck going our way. One of droylsdens players got their head to send it past their goalie.

We were playing well at this point with good football being played by both teams, we got our equaliser from what I consider hard work from all the players, a hard low shot from Callum. We thought we got our just deserts with a draw for the first time but with the game in the last few minutes Droylsden got a lucky corner with the players saying it wasn't a corner but the decision was made, and while our players were talking to each other we conceded the losing goal when the Droylsden players took the corner quickly and scored. Final score we lost 3-2.

Man of the match: Sammy (For his hard work and getting stuck in)

2nd Game:
1st half. We started this game after having a hard game in the first one, the players were determined to give their all.
We scored pretty quickly in this game and did we score lots! But I must admit this was Droylsdens B team.
With us scoring at will I shuffled the team around. Alex collected the ball in midfield and was about to shoot when he was bundled down by a Droylsden player, penalty! Alex gave the responsibility to Reagan who scored with confidence.
The final score was 8-0 to Reddish North End.

Man of the match : Luca (For his team work. He worked his socks off for the team)
