Hundleton U8s 3 v 2 Kilgetty U8s
19 10 2008Kilgetty were made to fight back from two goals down, after the manager admitedly made a mistake by leaving both Oliver Gamble and Zac Rowell on the bench. With both Ollie and Zac in action for Swansea City the following day, it was thought best to preserve their energies, but within 5 minutes of the start, Kilgetty were two goals down to a very strong and well drilled team.
The susbstitutions were made almost immediately, and Kilgetty began the fight back. Now the game was much more evenly matched. It was tough going, but by half-time, parity was restored, thanks to the goal-scoring talisman Zac Rowell.
The second half was a bitterly fought, and very physical duel with neither team conceding any ground. The game went end to end, delicately poised, but with two minutes left on the clock, Hundleton manged to finally get through the Kilgetty defence, and slide a goal past Dazy. It was a heart-breaking moment for the players who had worked so tirelessly.
Lessons will have been learned, not least by the manager, but the players soon picked themselves up. The rematch at Hundleton should be a very interesting affair.
