Year 4 Boys v Sefton Park

The Foxes were not to be put off by unusual playing conditions (dry and warm with no biting wind cutting across the pitch - it hardly felt like a home game at all) and welcomed the new season with 3 wins and one draw against a competitive Sefton Park team.

The first game saw an end-to-end tussle end nil-nil despite a great deal of goal mouth action. The Foxes played well throughout but Ollie C and Ollie K were outstanding in defence. The second game seemed destined for another goalless draw despite the Foxes creating plenty of chances. In the end a determined run by Raul produced the winner seconds from the final whistle. So 1-0 it was then.

The third game followed a very different pattern with Sonny causing havoc with his close control, passing and cool finishing. The scoring was opened by Ollie C from a corner (followed by perhaps the best goal celebration of the day)and later Nick also took his chance coolly. In between these great goals Sonny collected four goals of his own to bring about a 6-0 scored line. Finally, another win as Nick (again -with perhaps the goal of the day) and Sonny (again ) scored to round off an impressive morning.

Well done to everyone but Ollie C and Archie were chosen as the two players of the week.
