Wirral Cup Results
Year 8 lost 4-1 to Calday. Louis Pumford put us ahead just before half-time, but Calday regrouped and managed to equalise shortly after. In the second half, Calday managed to grab the lead, and although Mosslands pushed to get back into the game, it eventually became too difficult, and we were caught on the counter-attack chasing the equaliser.
Year 9 lost 2-1 to Woodchurch. Woodchurch started well and took the lead just before half-time. They doubled their advantage after the break to give us a mountain to climb. However, the team responded well with Charlie Milward scoring directly from a corner. On a day when the finals produced some very special goals, Charlie's was certainly one of them! Mosslands pushed for an equaliser and thought they had it when Ellis Harding's shot appeared to have crossed the line; however, the referee waved play on. A good performance from the lads, but they will have to go again next year!
The Sixth Form team won in a tight game v Calday! Calday started brighter and put Mosslands under pressure. A goal inside 15 minutes for Calday had us on the back foot, and they even rode their luck, conceding a second that was ruled out for offside. Shortly before the break, a moment of brilliance from George Gryba made it 1-1 with an audacious left-footed chip that floated over the Calday goalkeeper. In the second half, our goalkeeper, James McIntyre, became the difference between the two teams. He made a number of great saves in normal time, before becoming the hero in the penalty shoot-out, making a great save to give Sol Woltman the chance to win the game from the spot. Unfortunately, Sol missed, only to be saved by the referee, who saw the goalkeeper off his line. Sol made no mistake the second time around!
Well done to all involved and special mention to the supporters who came along to cheer our teams on.
