Everyone really wanted to win this game, as it was the last match of the season, and Bishop's Stortford are not a really spectacular team, but they are certainly not rubbish either. Our team reckoned that we could beat them.
At the beginning of the match, Edward did very well to nick the ball off their centre-half, but did nothing with it and we soon lost the ball. Soon, however, we had won it back. Will played magnificently again today, and he crossed the ball in to Edward, who chipped the ball first touch over the goalie's head.
However, our joys were short-lived, because I was not marking Stortford's right half very well, and he tipped a goal in off a cross from Stortford's left half..
At halftime, our coach lectured us about putting chances at goal away, especially me, because whenever crosses come in, it is my job to deflect them in.
During the second half, I did exactly what I was supposed to do and equalized at 2-2 by deflecting Edward's cross in between the goalkeeper's legs. Annoyingly, Stortford squeezed in a winning goal in the dying minutes, so all our work was for nothing.
Man of the Match: Tom (goalkeeper) for his brilliant saves
Goals: Edward, me
