P7 Football Team – Kirkshaws v St Bartholomews (Wed 18/11/15)
It was a wet and windy day. Kirkshaws Primary were playing ST Bartholomews. When the game started Kirkshaws got 2 early goals to put us in the lead. St Bartholomews got a goal back to make it 2-1 at half-time.
When the second have started the flood lights came on and the ball got slippery then the captain Ross Mclellan scored a beautiful goal from 30 yards out! It hit the crossbar and went in. St Bartholomews pulled two goals back and then took the lead for the first time to make it 4-3. Then Kirkshaws pulled a goal back with a stunning penalty kick. As the final whistle approached we had a chance through on goal but their keeper saved the ball and put it out for a corner. Then came the moment of the game…Graeme Mitchell floated a lovely cross over the keeper’s head and straight onto Connor Mitchell’s head. Time stood still! The crowd held their breath. The ball flew into the net and Kirkshaws won the game 5-4.
The win puts us on 4 points and near the top of the league.
What a game!
