We warmed up. We practised with our shooting and passing and then we were ready to go to the match kick-off. My thoughts were full of revenge after a 3-0 defeat against St Marychurch. St Marychurch kicked off. We pressed them quickly. We were creating many chances until it was my moment, I went 1 to 1 with the keeper and smashed the ball into the bottom corner.
The game kicked off again, but we didn’t want to finish with one goal. We wanted more.

This time I stepped up and fired it into the bottom corner.

We wanted more and Kyle had a big chance, he went 1 v 1 with the keeper and scored, we were now 7-0 up.
