Primary Town Team's Mixed Bag
The Year 6 Town Teams have been busy with mixed bag of results in the 11-a-side matches played since the turn of the year. Up until last weekend, when both the first team and the reserves had matches called off at North Tyneside, no Saturdays had been lost to the weather this year.
4/2/06 – Harrison Cup (League) – Felling Gateshead East 3 Stockton 3
Scorers – Daniel Young, Leon Watson & Jack Doherty
This was always going to be a hard match. Stockton had won four out of their their five Harrison matches so far and we knew we would have to battle hard to get something from this.
Early on, Daniel Gray was forced into a good one handed save to deny Stockton. At the other end, Lee Clay burst through but saw his shot saved. Minutes later, Stockton took the lead when a looping shot went in. It didn’t take long though for the equaliser as recalled Daniel Young beat a player on the left and shot across goal into the far corner. Stockton retook the lead through their strong centre forward who broke on the right and fired powerfully in. Leon Watson then harshly had a goal ruled out for handball before Stockton increased their lead to 3-1 at half time.
The second half saw chances, strong tackles and corners at both ends with no further score the last few minutes. Leon Watson got into the six yard box, shook off a defender by using a clever turn and pulled a goal back. In the final seconds, Felling got a freekick. In the resultant goalmouth scramble, Jack Doherty got the equaliser.
