What a fantastic match - no not England v Argentina - we're talking about Abbeymead Falcons v Gotherington Juniors.
The game was very entertaining and played in an excellent spirit. The first half was end to end with both teams creating several opportunities - probably the best chance falling to Abbeymead Falcons when Adam Reade collected the ball just outside the area on the left hand side and fired in an excellent shot which hit the bar and then the post before being cleared by Gotherington.
The second half continued to produce some excellent football from both teams as each created further opportunities from good passing and build-up play. As the second half progressed Abbeymead were unlucky as two shots were cleared from the line. However, towards the end of the half Gotherington applied more and more pressure and Abbeymead were forced to defend deeper and deeper. As a result the Abbeymead goalkeeper, Matthew Sutton, had to make several crucial saves.
An excellent match with both teams agreeing that a draw was a fair result. Well done to both teams.
