Saturday February 13th

Well this was just going to be one of those days.

It was stressed to the boys before the game that although Wokingham were bottom of the table, they are still a good football team who have some good players, in particular Adam who has good ability. The game started off quite evenly with both sides creating some good opportunities, unfortunately we fell behind to a long ball forward and we didnt react quick enough and the ball was poked into the bottom corner 0-1. As the half unfolded we created several great chances which on another day we would have taken a comfotable lead, although wokingham did force Alfie to make one or two good saves also. It was summed up by one of our parents saying ‘this isnt going to be our day’. As the second half wore on we grew stronger and stronger and wasted two or three one on ones with the keeper who had a fine day. This was a day when we wouldnt have put the ball away if we were there until dark, but the effort levels were not to be faulted. Wokingham are to be commended for their commitment and stuck well to their task.
