Match report

The weather was forecast for rain and thunderstorms but the only storm today was the Hahndorf U10 White team taking control of the ball quickly out of centre with Joel Bateman's great ball skills and finding the net for the 1st goal.  Hahndorf once again quickly took the ball off Stirling United with Will Tully and Jensen Ingram in attack and found Bateman to kick his 2nd goal.  Stirling United went in attack and had their first attempt at goal but a nice save by Harry Woods, Hahndorf's Goalkeeper.  Hahndorf's defence was Lawson Shotton, Billy Cook and Thomas Stapleton were making it hard for Stirling United to go into attack.  Hahndorf had another attempt with Ingram showing his fancy feet with the ball and kicking the ball into the net for his 1st goal.  After half time we saw Hahndorf attackers Stapleton, Cook and Woods bring the ball forward and attempted to kick the ball into the net but Stirling United Goalkeeper deflected the ball away in a result of a corner for Hahndorf.  Woods took the corner but Stirling United defence took control of the ball and went towards their forward.  With an attempt at goals Hahndorf's Goalkeeper Shotton made a nice save and quickly got it out of defence with Tully.  Stirling United were strong in attack and tried again at goals but unfortunately Shotton saved it again.  Hahndorf again got it out of defence and Hahndorf forward Stapleton controlled the ball and attempted a kick at goals but again the Stirling United Goalkeeper blocked it.  It was a strong performance by both teams and the second half showed both teams having attempts at goals, defence making it hard for the attackers and showing good sportsmanship throughout the game.
