Our boys put in a determined performance but ultimately fell to a 2-1 defeat.
The first half was a difficult one - play was slow and the team found it hard to get into their usual rhythm, with St Raphaels controlling large parts of the game and we went into half time 2-0 down. After the break, the boys responded well and were much brighter and sharper on the ball, moving with purpose and creating better chances. The goal came after some great link up play involving Mack, Finn and Tristan, with Tristan finishing with a brilliant effort, putting the ball into the top corner.
Although the result did not go our way, the second half performance showed real character and resilience from the boys as they kept pushing right up until the final whistle. There were plenty of positives to take into our next game.
Performance Squad: Mack (Captain), Finn (Vice-Captain), Dylan, Druv, Tristan, Xander, Jed, William, Ralph, Harry (Development Squad)
