Match report

Spectators of the Blackwood Forest vs Woodside Blue match held at Springbank Secondary College would be forgiven for thinking they were watching 2 different teams after half-time, such was the change in play.

In the first half, Woodside showed their passing and game play prowess. Their coordinated attack led the home team 8-0 at the half-time whistle. Blackwood were simply unable to get into the flow after a two week break due to a previous round Bye leading into the long weekend. The few times they were able to direct the ball into their attacking half, the Woodside defense held true.

After the half-time break a very composed Blackwood team stepped onto the pitch. Their passes and dribbling were much sharper, which resulted in Blackwood's Elisha S scoring twice from some marvelous team assists. The home team's defence also solidified, and they were able to restrict Woodside to a single goal.

The final scoreline Blackwood 2 - Woodside 9
