Soccer Tournament
Melville Intermediate boys football team was lead on to the field by Te Auripo Manguatu, and James Nove, on the 30th of May 2013.
Melville played a great first game, but having to play straight away had them a bit shaky out of the starting gates, losing to Fairfeild 1-0.
The boys lost there second game 2-0 against T.A, which had the boys spirits at an all time low, knowing that they win their last two games made them start thinking what do they have to do to win?
SMASH! a surperb strike by oue captain Te Auripo left us 1-0 at the half of game 3. The second half started and a great break away from Tane left the defence scrambleing back to goal as Tane crossed the ball into Brooklyn for our seconded goal, the finaly score 2-0 to Melville.
The forth game our last chance of getting into the semi's, but we had to go against the hardest team there... Cambrigde. As always the Cambrigde boys back up their words as they said they'll smash us, a whooping 3-0 lost for Melville canceling any hopes of makeing it into the semi's.
Melville had one more game, 7th - 8th play off. At half time the score was nill all, and it was the same in the second half, but right in the dieing seconds of the game Tane scored a great goal for a 1-0 win to Melville.
Overall Place: 7th
Boys.
ReplyDeleteLove the recount and from my point of view it ticks all the boxed - of course I couldn't make it to the tournament, but you have detailed all the events and filled in all the blanks for me. A wonderful recount full of detail and emotion and great that you recorded. We did take some video footage of the event which I have embedded on the Room Five class page, please use it if you feel free.
