Marden High – 0 : 4 – Valley Gardens
Match Report
Mr. Prytherch’s Year 7 football team were beaten at home to Valley Gardens on Thursday in a well contested match, but the performance was encouraging, especially a spirited second half which deserved more.
After a looping first effort found the top corner, Marden failed to clear their lines and Valley roared into a 3-0 half time lead, but could only add to that with a lucky ricochet in the second half to complete the scoring. The U12s went close to reducing the deficit, with Laurie Robson having a shot tipped over, and Lucas Sutherland flagged offside as he tucked the ball into the bottom corner. Lucas was also denied late on when Valley’s ‘keeper superbly tipped his shot against the post.
The Year 7s will have an early chance to register their first win of the season on the first Monday back after half term with a fixture against Monkseaton Middle School lined up.
