For their final game the boys continued to battle well and took the lead with an own goal when a Fraser Abbott shot was deflected into the net. Phoneix then scored two goals in quick succession (Both on the break) and for the remainder of the match the boys laid siege to the Phoneix goal but a combination of the woodwork some good saves from the Phoneix keeper and poor finishing from tired legs meant that the boys could not force an equaliser
To summarise the day, the boys battled well in all their matches and also played some fantastic football during the course of the day.
Well done to all the boys for keeping going in what turned out to be a long day and thank you to all the parents for the support that they gave to the boys during the day.
The squad for the tournament was as follows:-
L.Caria, C.Dumas, O.Plunkett, M.Horlock, J.Pickett, R.Lawrence, F.Abbott and H.Robinson.
