Teachers 5-3 Grade 8 'A'

A competitive match took place today, between the teachers and the first student's team. The match started with an opening goal by Mr. Guarnieri after a cross by Mr. Corcoran. For several minutes the match seemed equal with the help of Lucas and Nicholas in defence, until another goal scored by the teachers. This time the foot behind the ball was Mr. Brendan that scored after a deflection by Danilo. The score remained 2-0 for the rest of the half. In the second half Mr. Piccolo stole two more goals for the teachers. The midfield was controlled by the students especially Giovanni who made excellent passes. The students answered back with a good shot by Emilio after he dribbled the defence. Mattia J conquered the ball on the left and shot missing the post by a few cm. Simon put in another goal on behalf of the students, with a beautiful action. With the assist of Emma, Antoine was able to make the score 4-3. the students were full of hope to try on finally beating the teachers. They kept pressure on the teachers defence and continued shooting but found a well prepared Mr. Antonio. Andrea almost promised us a tie after dribbling the defence and missing by inches the goal. Emilio continued helping the defence with the help of Yi. Unfortunately the teachers scored the fifth goal seconds before the final whistle and ended the game in their favour. The teachers remain unbeaten.
