A dramatic final quarter saw Waverton come back from 3-1 down to take a well deserved 3-3 draw.
Either team could have won it late on as the game opened up and chances came at both ends. Our goals came from Jacob (2) and James (1) who along with Sion were able to break through the Elton midfield with strong running on a number of occasions. William was dependable as our holding midfielder and made some great last ditch tackles. Alex, Sam and Jack held the midfield together and kept trying to play our passing game from the back and run into the space.
Overall the result was fair and the game was played in a great spirit by both teams who kept trying right to the final whistle.
At times both teams were quite bunched together which was leaving plenty of space out wide and in behind each defence. At training we will work on trying to trying to find this space either by running into it or by passing to clever players who stand in the space.
Thanks to Paul for refereeing and for giving us all a good laugh by slipping over, prompting cheers from both sets of fans. Thanks also to the helpers for setting up and putting away the goals and markers.
Well played everyone!
