Aycliffe U11 Eagles 2 v Prissick Rovers Athletic 2
A really hard fought battle and a great game of football. The opening goal was an OG as Jack shut the defender down so quickly that the defender played the ball back to the keeper and the ball found the back of the net. Then bullet of a shot from distance by a Prissick player found the back of the net to make it level. Prissick attacked well and a ball, looped over Charlie, found the back of the net. Again, nothing Charlie could have done, 1-2 HT. Through ball from Aycliffe and as the keeper came out, Dan chipped it over him, hit the post but Jack, in true striker style, was there to blast it in for the equaliser, 2-2. Outstanding and so brave making some key saves and putting his body on the line several times. MOTM: Carter.
