Tintwistle U12 vs NMJFC U12
From what we knew about Tintwistle, we were expecting a tough competitive game, which is exactly what we got.
The 1st half was competitive with both teams making it difficult for each other in possession.
New Mills started seeing alot of joy down the left which is where their first goal came from, a quick throw from Cookie into the middle allowed Jess to feed Bertie to slot home. Tintwistle hit back straight away with an equally well worked goal down their left.
Tintwistle were awarded a penalty before the half was out, with Archie getting his foot to it pushing it onto the post and coming back along the line to him. The ref perhaps controversially gave a goal as he deemed the ball had crossed the line.
At half time the team were disappointed to be down to that goal, this didn't let their heads drop and started the 2nd half superbly well, controlling the first 15 mins and getting a well deserved equaliser through Darragh.
The game once again became very even but it was Tintwistle who got the benefit from an iffy offside decision to take the lead.
The young Millers tried to get back but unfortunately were hit twice on the counter to go down 5-2.
An excellent game of football between 2 evenly matched teams.
POM went to Dan W for his tenacity and hold up play upfront.
