Boys U19 Zone 1 Round 2 Football

On Saturday we went to play football at Mpelembe Secondary School. We played three schools Kalulushi trust, Mplelembe and Lechwe. Our first game was against Mpelembe and in the first half our mid field was disorganised putting a lot of pressure on our defense, but our defense was more organised denying most of the opposition attacks. On the second half we made some changes to our team, especially our mid field and it was more organised and stable and this allowed us to have more opportunities at goal. But we still ended up losing that game 1-0.

Straight after the first game we played Kalulushi Trust, this game we played really well as we were moving the ball around and moving into space which got us the opening goal which was scored by Mwansa. The second half we continued to play really well and had another goal scored by Yarel. So we won that game 2-0.

Replacement goalkeeper Philip was fully committed to the task

Our third and last game was against Lechwe and this last game we still gave it our all. In the first half Lechwe was given a penalty for them to open up the scores, but this didn't put us off, so we continued to push ourselves by passing the ball into space more giving us more chances at goal. In the second half we managed to score a goal by Peter, so we drew that game 1-1. Overall we played really well and worked hard. I would like to thank the team for giving it their all and also Mr. Grove and Mr. Kirk for coaching us and all those who came to support us.
