U11 Comets - Windlesham utd Dragons

Our first home game of the season was against Windlesham United Dragons 

We started the game how we left last weeks game , with every player giving 110% . 

We quickly went 1-0 up with Thomas scoring the first goal for the Comets leaving smiles on the faces of the coaches , players and parents that would of made you think Mr Whippy had just turned up in the height of summer. . This was the boost the players needed as soon after we went 2-0 with a first goal for Will . 

We had our defensive players not giving up and not letting a player get past them leaving our goal keeper not much to do in the first half. Josh was unlucky to just miss the target after a great run with the ball from his Right wing position over the left of the pitch and a Great shot.  Towards the half way mark our left winger Fletcher hit the ball into the back of the net from just inside the box . After half time we came out guns blazing again which then led to Will scoring his second goal . This lead to the the power play rule and the opposition having an extra player on the pitch until they scored their first goal . This is where having an extra player was a disadvantage as the score line became 4-1 .   They took a player off but unfortunately our heads dropped and we let two more goals in. The rain started and didn’t stop for the rest of the game. They then got another two goals in before the last quarter.  After a few more chances for both teams the opposition managed to score another goal to make it 4-4. 

We came back fighting and all players didn’t give up and gave everything they had to the very end. With Alex hitting the post from outside the box towards to end. 

Result 4-4
