Red Match:

The game was fast and hard with each side striving to get the upper hand and forge a lead. Every attack by Manton bounced off the anvil defence of Sarah Marsh, Ross Kiddy, and Grace Akers. Then as the pace began to take it’s toll on Manton the Swallows took the lead thanks to Thomas Napper, Keagan Ashburn, Andrew Lindley, Jack Wasteney and Kieran Walton. Further goals would not come to our team as Manton dug deep and walled up the goal.

Result: Swallownest 1 – 0 Manton

Blue Match:

The second match started just like the first with each team determined to anneal the other, but it was the Swallows who took control and scored but could not bend the Manton defence further. The constant attack of Cameron Shaw, Kian Hancock, Joshua Drury, and Sam Goulden could not dent the Manton defence. Then in two swift counter attacks the Swallows found themselves two goals down even with the best efforts of Adam Hird, Corrie Rust and Megan Nagy.

The game could have gone either way but the Swallows showed what they were made of against strong opposition.

Result: Swallownest 1 – 2 Manton
