U11 Match Report - 18 July 2009

Dayboro Dingoes 0 vs Redcliffe 3.

Clear skies, 3-5 knot winds out of the south east. Billy Hohns was our ref and Graham Rose was running the mile up the sideline. Bit of a change of the under 11 dingoes as they had to wear reverse strip this weekend because Redcliffe's colours were almost the same as Dayboros. First half, kickoff, with an early breakaway with Tyler and Claire looked like it was set to score, but was defended will by the Redcliffe goalie. Redcliffe had a run at our line, Sos was in goal and defended well. Another scramble at the our end saw a disallowed goal. Redcliffe got a penalty and they put one in the net over Sos's head, bad luck mate, may be when you grow a bit taller.

We kicked off and made a run towards there goal but were defeated and Redcliffe banged another one in. Again we kicked off and they stole the ball and ran towards the goal, this time Elliott defended well as he did all game and stopped them. Another kick off and a scramble saw Reece and StevieLee with a brilliant run up the left hand side but was defended by Redcliffe.

Second half, number 11 for Redcliffe was our nemesis and we could not get past him. Even with the help of substitute players Tahra Shoots, Jacob Elliott, Elliott Morrison-Rose and Tristan Alexander, we were unable to score a goal, not for the want of trying. Tyler was goalie, took a fantastic save sliding on his knees, then with a mighty goalie drop kick Claire was able to take the ball, run forward and pass it to Reece and Reece had a fantastic attempt at goal but was unlucky to have it saved by their goalie.

Final score was 3-0 to Redcliffe. A great score compared to the first time these two teams met and may be the final score was not a true reflection of the effort and dedication put in by the Dayboro players.
