U12 Whites 2 V 2 Mossley

Goalscorers:

If the weather was bad yesterday, try playing a match on top of table mountain (Brushes) within a gale force wind.

Safe to say the wind dominated the game. In the first half Mossley went 2 - 0 up after taking advantage of the wind behind them and pumping the ball over the defence and running onto it. It took 30 minutes for the defence to get used to this style of play but in the conditions faced it worked.
Then for the 2nd half we pushed our attackers onto the shoulders of Mossleys defence, dropped our usual passing game and looked for balls over the top of the opposition. Brad Cooper scored a 35 yard long range wind assisted looping goal and James Bowker ran onto a goalkeeping fumble to bring the team level, a fair result all round. This being said we did hit the post and crossbar on 3 occasions but a draw seemed fair.
