Report from Manager Roland McGill:

A tough, hard fought 3-2 win for the Panthers today.  Conditions were tricky with a strong wind blowing down the pitch but the boys just kept plugging away and thoroughly deserved the win in the end.

We started off strongly again creating a handful of decent chances but a mix up at the back between Harry McGill and Alfie Waller on 19mins saw Whitegrove go one up (not sure who got the last touch but an own goal for sure).  Heads didn’t go down and 2 mins later Leo Cresswell coolly slotted th ball through the keeper’s legs to draw level.  Great spirit boys!!

We kept pushing with the wind behind us and just before the break Callum Neeson-Roberts expertly broke free, showing great composure, and clinically finished.  2-1 up at half time. 

2nd half was uphill into the wind but that didn’t deter the Panthers.  We created a number of half chances but it took 22 second half mins for us to go 3-1 up through a great Harry James finish.  That should’ve been it, but the boys conspired to make the parents even more hassled by conceding a soft goal on 26mins of 2nd half.

The Panthers held on to record another win, thankfully.  Man of the match was Adem Aitkaci whose first half defensive display was awesome.  Well done to all Panthers.  Big thanks to Dan for running the line and to all the support.
