U15 v Tettenhall College (a) 3pm

 
The U15 squad travelled to Tettenhall and made an encouraging start, creating many good chances in the opening half. As the game progressed, we continued to create opportunities from effective attacking play and short corners but were unable to score from them. Our defence read the game well and tackled strongly to prevent the Tettenhall attack converting their chances. The game remained scoreless until just before half time when Tettenhall broke through the midfield and struck the ball into the goal to lead 1-0.
 
The second half saw Oswestry creating several more chances which again lacked the conviction when it mattered in front of goal. Tettenhall attacked strongly and pressured our defence which led to conceding a short corner which they capatilised upon with an unstoppable strike. This put them ahead 2-0 and was the eventual result, despite Oswestry's efforts.
 
Well done to all of the players. Player of the match was shared between Hana Foggin and Captain, Francis Rowles.
