Iguanas v Scorpions

A good runout for the Scorpions and Iguanas today as both teams practised for next years step up to the 7-a-side pitches.

There were some great passages of play from both teams and although the Scorpions spent a lot of the match on the attack some great defending from the Iguanas throughout the game made it very difficult for the side placed 2 divisions higher. The first half was especially close with just a couple of goals scored and Jon was very pleased with his sides effort.

Although the Scorpions came out on top in the second half the Iguanas showed just how far they have come in a short space of time. Some very nice counter attacks and a late free kick gave the Scorpions lots of problems but the Iguanas just couldn't find a way through. It showed in the end that the Scorpions had been playing as a team for a longer period of time than their opponents and some nice passages of play resulted in some nice finishes but it was a great effort by everyone today.

A very entertaining match and much learnt for the coaches on what to work on in preparation for next season. The score line isn't important, today was about practise and preparation and everyone should be very proud of their effort today....Also thank you Dave for refereeing today
