The Titans posted a 1-1 draw this afternoon, with a markedly better effort than yesterday’s. It was end-to-end action all afternoon although it looked like the boys might be in for a long afternoon when the other team scored just minutes into the game. But they settled down and gave it their all, finally tying the game in the last four minutes with an amazing free kick from number 34. From nearly mid-field, he arced the ball over the wall, past the outstretched hand of the keeper, and then just under the crossbar. It was a thing of beauty! It’s not the first time this boy has done this, so I think we’re going to have to come up with a phrase along the lines of “bend it like Beckham” for this kid.
It’s not so much whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game! A tie is as good as a W.
