The Year 8 Boys Soccer Team worked really hard this season. We didn’t lose a match going into the finals.
The boys went into the semi final ready to face St Monica’s. With a man down after a red card in the previous match, the boys were one centre back down and had to re arrange and organise a new team and formation. The boys had the game under control for almost the whole game but we just couldn’t find an opening goal. We had a few chances but couldn’t consolidate.
With the first 60 mins of play ending 0-0, the team had to take on a very intense 10 minutes of extra time which also lead us to a 0-0 finish. This meant that the boys had to take it to a penalty shoot out.
We were nervous but ready to take on the penalty shoot out! After a very unlucky penalty shoot out unfortunately the boys ended up loosing 6-3 on penalties.
It was an amazing effort by each and every one of our team members, we did really well to make it this far and hope we can go one step further next year!
